False Accusations & The Ministry of Health Denial of Male Emotional Pain

Thu 1st April 2021:

Andrew Little is the current Minister of Health. He has done little to reduce the suicide rate of men. I can only conclude Mr Andrew Little has no intention to address or raise the issue. Mr Little the taxpayer pays you to do your job. You are not reducing the male suicide rate. The very […]

Mental Health Report

Wed 31st March 2021:

https://www.health.govt.nz/publication/office-director-mental-health-and-addiction-services-annual-report-2018-and-2019 Report Link Twenty years back this platform was a rogue nuisance demanding the freedom of such information. Credit to Henry Cooke, Stuff’s head political journalist for his work here. Many individuals suffered the unfortunate consequences of political aggression because the media wasn’t working as it should. I haven’t suddenly become a STUFF fan, it’s […]

Men Must Write

I’ve copied this from a New Zealand political page … It could just as easily apply here.

School makes 12 year old boys stand in front of the girls during assembly and ‘apologise for rapes committed by their gender’

Tue 30th March 2021:

News Story Here Parents and male students were left ‘mortified’ after their school forced them to stand in assembly and apologise to their female classmates for sexual assaults committed by males. Brauer College in the south-western Victorian town of Warrnambool held an assembly on Wednesday where boys were told to stand up in a symbolic […]

On Conservatives

Tue 23rd March 2021:

Yesterday I put up a post on Todd Muller but what struck me most in the comments was not reflecting so much on his situation but more along the lines of how that might be seen in thinking about conservatives. These days conservatism is seen as

Housing Crisis caused by Feminism and the breakdown of the family unit.

D-day for the Government’s plan to fix housing, with few easy options i.e. TAX. Housing Crisis caused by Feminism and the breakdown of the family unit. Separated families need two dwellings. Both dwellings need to have a bedroom for each child. That is not what the law says, its what a Family Court orders. Duckduckgo.com […]

On Todd Muller

Mon 22nd March 2021:

I was in a discussion recently about the National Party. More specifically about the year prior. I had to refer to Muller as the guy who rolled Simon Bridges because I couldn’t remember his name. I forgive myself for that, though, he was very much an unknown in the political narrative, but to be fair […]

Conversation around Consent,,, and the need to understand the reasons why we are having this conversation…

Fri 19th March 2021:

When I initially heard what the NSW Police commissioner was proposing,, I kinda liked the idea. He announced they are thinking of using an APP for consent to sex. I thought it could possibly help protect guys.. could make it worse.. debate still out. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-03-18/nsw-sexual-consent-app-proposed-by-mick-fuller/100015782 Actually the phone I personally own doesn’t get used and […]

Empathy

Mon 15th March 2021:

So, you don’t have empathy or you don’t feel like you have empathy? A small percentage of the population don’t and that has a significant affect on their personalities and their relationships with other people. But don’t let feminists fool you into believing you’re not empathetic if you don’t agree with them or don’t feel […]

Andrew Little is here again to increase the male suicide rate in New Zealand using the new sex violence bill

Sat 13th March 2021:

Andrew Little is here to increase the male suicide rate in New Zealand. https://www.stuff.co.nz/opinion/124274106/sex-violence-bill-crosses-the-line-on-access-to-a-fair-trial Do you want to know how you fade away the rights of an individual? You do it in steps. When people become accustomed you just add another step. A layer. Removal of common law rights. Countries around the world have done […]

New Sex Violence Bill

Fri 12th March 2021:

An interesting critique of the new Sex Violence bill by a QC: https://www.stuff.co.nz/opinion/124274106/sex-violence-bill-crosses-the-line-on-access-to-a-fair-trial One thing the proposed new law seems to do is make it more difficult for a woman’s relationship history to be brought up in court. Fair enough, you might say – obviously there’s a danger of someone’s past behaviour being used against […]

Commercialized Rape

Fri 26th February 2021:

This political position may have emerged somewhere in the past prior to NZ Opposition Leader Judith Collins’ announcement that this was her personal view, back somewhere around our recent 2020 election. It’s gained some traction amongst right wing supporters although I wouldn’t say Conservative supporters. It’s another of those

Men’s group in Wellington

Sun 21st February 2021:

Men here might be interested in this men’s group in Wellington. It’s limited to 9 members but has a few vacancies right at the moment: https://www.cab.org.nz/service-provider/KB00040354

Oz Politician highlights the Family Court causes suicides and murders. We have the same problem in NZ. I now call out the Minister of Justice Andrew Little as the man responsible for inaction. Andrew Little has turned a blind eye to these dads and their children.

The attached video – Pauline Hanson reports the Family Court in Australia has caused male suicides and female murders. It includes the murders of children by both male and females and other family members. Hanson had identified filicide. That is the killing of one’s son or daughter. A repugnant crime that Hanson says the stats […]

May 2022

Sat 20th February 2021:

The MENZ site burst into life in May 1997. Is that cause for celebration – 25 years?

The Hobosexual

Sun 14th February 2021:

This is a new one for me. Interested to hear from any Hobosexuals about the lifestyle. One might suspect it’s a natural consequence of the changing status of men in society and perhaps the declining opportunities in home ownership.

To Call A Man A Rapist

Thu 11th February 2021:

Full Custody for Dad

Tue 9th February 2021:

I found this proudly displayed in the public domain so I can’t see a issue with sharing this here. How many fathers do get full custody now days? Is shared parenting still a thing in the family court?

This is the place where a man who experienced the family court burned himself to death in front of Jacinta Adern. So far nothing has improved. How many more deaths are required before Jacinta takes a different approach?

Thu 28th January 2021:

Male suicide is a national crisis that kills more men that the road toll.

He wrote: ‘Parental Alienation is devastating. I loved my children as much as a husband and father could. I see no light’

Thu 14th January 2021:

This is what a real bloodstained suicide note from a man who experienced the Family Court looks like. Before he killed himself he wrote: “FAMILY LAW NEEDS REFORM”. I recommend mandated lower costs and less reward for false claims of abuse. Parental Alienation is devastating. I loved my children as much as a husband and […]

Why has the NZ government given the power to family court judges to cause mental health and the suicide of hundreds of kiwi dads?

Thu 17th December 2020:

Why has the New Zealand government given the power to family court judges to cause mental health and the suicide of hundreds of dads in New Zealand? And why is it that no one in the New Zealand government wants to pick up the mantle for male problems like this one? Are they fearful of […]

Parental alienation examples required.

Wed 9th December 2020:

I urgently need examples of parental alienation. Higher court examples if that is possible. Something a Family court would have to compare and follow. Experiences with this could be helpful too.
