Court Favouritism Towards Females
While over the last year or two there have been some cases in which women were sentenced comparably to men, that remains a rare exception. Here’s a case in the news today. Compare that with this very similar case in which it was a father who responded to his child’s bully with a mild physical response. Neither the man nor the woman appeared to have any previous convictions. The man’s offence was even less blameworthy than the woman’s, in that his bullied son was a special needs child and the news article implied that he only shoved the bully whereas the woman pulled the bully by the hair, hit her several times around the face and caused bruising. But she was a woman so was discharged without conviction. Having a penis appeared to disqualify the man from having the Court consider the effects of a conviction and sentence on his future travel plans and life, whereas being a woman appeared to make those things suddenly important enough to protect her from even a conviction.
Men continue to be treated with much less understanding and compassion than women routinely are, reflecting fundamental sexism unchanged by feminist activities purporting to seek gender equality. If anything, the justice gender gap has increased both in law, for example sentences for offences that men mainly commit have been increased to ridiculous levels, and in practice given relentless demonization of men by feminists and white knights. Men continue to be treated as disposable, their culpability considered greater than that of women and their suffering, welfare and rights considered much less important than women’s.
We would prefer men to be shown the same understanding and compassion that is routinely shown to women in our Court systems. That will require revision of the real sexism in our society, being laws, policies, attitudes and conduct disadvantaging men. However, failing that we demand the women be treated as cruelly as men routinely are. If and when that happens we will quickly see changes to law and sentencing as the women start squealing about the unfairness of it. That won’t address the underlying sexism but will help many men.

More on the violent woman, no man who committed this violence would have been discharged without conviction.

Mys Son was hauled over coals, convicted of assault and has not been allowed a relationship normal with his child for three years after one small slap to a face.

I disagree with this.
Women historically (looking back at NZ historical justice archives) were sentenced on (a more equal) or comparative basis – women got hard labour too.
These sentences being based on the criminal mind you might instead say;
Men are sentenced with the same understanding but imprisoned with more compassion.
Women are sentenced with less understanding and disproportinate compassion.
What are your thoughts on that MoMA?

The increasing frequency of meths use by women has many consequences for men.

We never have to wait long before yet another example of the pussy pass arrives. Here’s one, a woman viciously tries to murder her male partner in a fit of jealousy and is sentenced to less than half the maximum jail term for this crime, without any minimum non-parole period. A man who did the same to a woman would not see such lenience. Indeed, men get sent to jail for longer than that for gently touching a woman without her consent.
And here’s another, a female teacher being allowed to continue her teaching career despite physically assaulting a pupil. We agree with the understanding and second chance shown towards her, and indeed we believe the fuss made over natural consequences such as the one she provided is foolish. However, male teachers who assault their students always seem to be kicked out of teaching, a profession that seriously needs to keep its males and to engage many more.
We await the sentence for this woman who murdered her partner. It’s likely to be the minimum standard sentence of 10 years while men who commit murder now almost always get longer than that.
Incidentally, the fact that partner violence and murder is committed by these or any women disproves the feminist formulation of domestic violence as patriarchal power and control. Jealousy, conflict and drunkenness can lead men and women alike to show extreme violence.

I think your above statement would be more effective if we knew how many men commit the same atrocities and the prevalence among gender that commit such crimes.

Noting that the deceased had traces of meths …

Just Curious @7: How would the statement be made more effective by a comparison of gender crime rates?
