Women Only Time at a Public Pool

Sat 18th March 2017:

At the same time that every men’s only club is harangued, threatened and denied funding unless and until it allows women to become members, numerous women’s only groups are operating and more are being created. Here is another example, this time using an Auckland Council owned (i.e. publicly owned and paid for by men and […]

This is what Labour MP thinks of a man’s rights

Fri 17th March 2017:

Stuart Nash who is a Labour MP and their police spokesperson, yesterday encouraged other inmates to SCALP Phillip John Smith, claiming Smith has no rights because he offended. Would Nash ever say such things regarding for female offenders who committed crimes as bad or worse than Phillip Smith did? Of course not.

Who dies first, husband or wife??

Thu 16th March 2017:

If death is the result of the collapse of the human anatomy then the surviving gender in a relationship must have had a pretty good life one would think. So which gender has it best?? Let Alan King reveal the facts.

Calling out abuse and seeking to resolve conflict

Tue 14th March 2017:

This is a warning to the lengths that police are willing to go to prosecute a man (me). I am not sure how much I should say as the matter is before the court. However I will just state the reasons that I was arrested on Friday which I think many will find concerning. I […]

Assaults and Detention at Wellington District Court

This is the first of two posts I am going to make here about my recent experiences. I would be interested in hearing from any others who have had any similar experiences with court staff. Here is a letter that I have written to Amy Adams and Paula Bennett about how court staff treat people. […]

Male Supportive Group in Upper Hutt

Wed 8th March 2017:

I’ve been facilitating groups in Wairarapa for over a year. We currently have a fortnightly Thursday group in Featherston 7-9pm (contact me if interested). I’m now organizing a regular Tuesday evening group in Upper Hutt. This group isn’t men only – I try to get a roughly even gender balance. It’s a format that men […]

Message from Darren Elliott: Kia ora. Together with Geoff Lealand and Lisa Perrott in Screen and Media Studies at the University of Waikato, I am researching and writing about perceptions of body shape and image, and the role of the media in shaping or reinforcing such perceptions. I am focusing on notions of body and […]

Pharmac Called Upon to Subsidize Feminine Products

Tue 21st February 2017:

The claim is that schoolgirls are missing school because women can’t afford tampons so Pharmac is being asked to subsidize them and other ‘feminine hygiene products’. Pharmac seems to be taking the request seriously and checking to see if its role could include this. Will the National govt court the female vote again for this […]

Psychologists Board

I have recently lodged a formal complaint to the Psychologists Board regarding the professional negligence of Sarah Calvert in her role as court appointed psychologist. This relates to her conduct back in 2011 when she was engaged to write a s133 report. Has anybody had any experience in these matters and what was the outcome?

Alien

Sun 19th February 2017:

The Alien series with Sigourney Weaver are well known science fiction movies. I have never thought of them with a feminist/anti-feminist twist before, and I have no idea why this suddenly occurs to me now. Weaver portrays the futuristic ultimate feminist independent amazon warrior and if you’ve seen the movies falls in love, so to […]

How did they determine that 1 in 3 women REPORT experiencing (IPV) Intimate partner violence ?

Tue 14th February 2017:

NZ women refuge, NZ white ribbon and the Its not Ok campaign, SHine org and all other feminist/ government organisations get the DV statistics from NZ violence clearing house at Auckland University.

Logie’s Bill Will Increase False Allegations

Mon 13th February 2017:

Jan Logie’s Domestic Violence – Victims’ Protection Bill won’t be supported by government but may get through with support from the government’s minor coalition parties. In principle it may be reasonable to require employers to provide paid leave and flexible hours to assist someone who has been subjected to domestic violence, especially if they are […]

Perhaps of interest to the many fathers who were shafted and their children who were harmed by this particularly male-blaming judge.

Extremely experienced McKenzie Friend required for complicated PRA proccedings

Thu 9th February 2017:

Can anyone recommend a top professional McKenzie Friend specialist in Auckland. The case is complicated and involves real estate based on a claim of a constructive or sham type trust, company that was simply an extension of a person, a business and de facto relationship. Large amount of evidence and most probably end up in […]

Snake Oil Advice from ‘Relationship Expert’

Wed 8th February 2017:

This article is typical of the trivialization of marriage and relationships in western countries. This ‘relationship expert’ encourages people to trash their marriages and disregard any commitments they made simply because they are experiencing a bit of lust towards others or a desire for ‘a bit of excitement’. No mention that any research supports his […]

Did you hear the one about the bloke that walks into the police station?

Sun 5th February 2017:

A man walks into a police station at 9 am one sunny Saturday morning with an incredible story. He says to the police officer behind the counter that he is here to report an violent brutal assault that occurred to him a couple of hours earlier. The officer ushers the man into an interview room […]

Women Should be Allowed to Murder

Sat 4th February 2017:

Or so many people believe. This case in which a mother murdered her autistic young adult daughter is another incredible display of justice favouritism towards women. While one can empathize with her difficulties, she deliberately murdered her daughter when she had other options. Who the hell gets 4 years imprisonment for murder? Oh right, a […]

Misleading researches and information about the ‘1 in 3 women”

Thu 2nd February 2017:

The IT’S NOT OK CAMPAIGN which is run by the MSD appears to have deliberately misquoted the research of the NZ violence clearing house. I have been struggling to get clear information and stats from the NZ violence clearance house which is run by two feminists – Ms. Gay Richards and Ms Nicola Paton. ————- […]

More Prisons, more police, intimidation of beneficiaries equals a better NZ

Our government’s idea of changing people’s lives for the better: more prisons, more cops, uniformed guards intimidating beneficiaries at WINZ offices; yeah, nice. English has set new targets for police and one of them is reducing family violence deaths. A laudable aim but if the government thinks that will be achieved by their discriminatory ‘protection’ […]

Dishonest Promotion of Prostitution

Sun 29th January 2017:

Did anyone notice this article in the NZ Herald with the title ‘Kiwis reveal experiences with sex workers’? The title suggested the article might provide us with some tales of warning and insights about keeping ourselves, our wallets, savings, health, marriages and reputations safe should we ever become customers of the prostitute industry. However, the […]
