International Men’s Conference – still on track

Thu 26th June 2014:

The first international men’s conference, to be held in Detroit this weekend shrugs off the recent threats of violence that forced a change in venue. The evolving story of the feminist backlash against men who dared to confer without consent was discused in an earlier post Feminist Extremists attack Men’s Conference. Conference organisers A Voice […]

Labour’s List Made on the Basis of People’s Genitals

Tue 24th June 2014:

The Labour Party has put into practice its ‘Man Ban’ policy even though Cunliffe previously made a show of rejecting it. Their list published yesterday was based on candidates’ genitals rather than merit in an effort to ensure a 45% female quota in their next caucus. By basing candidate selection on genitals and favouring vaginas […]

High Profile Protection Order

The husband of a well known Hamilton woman plans to fight two charges of breaching a protection order: The first relates to the man allegedly texting the woman just after being issued with the protection order, while the second relates to the man again, allegedly, communicating with the victim. Source story here This would be […]

Improving Prison Life

I grew up believing gaol was for the bad guys; that view would have been further influenced by television rather than any reality in New Zealand; it was not something I gave a great deal of thought to. One thing I can say now, is that in day-to-day life I have met more men who […]

Guilty Until Proven Innocent Pronounced

Mon 16th June 2014:

Story here: Glenn report released: Shift burden of proof An insane concept – But there it is. The last step to get rid of the 800 year old Magna Carta. All are guilty until proven innocent. Might as well pass the sentence first.

Protection Order Bloopers

Sun 15th June 2014:

Shocked residents are recovering from a raid on an Auckland suburban address by a team of armed police at 6.00 am Sunday morning. The stunned family, with three young children aged 4, 6 and 9, who did not wish to be named, were woken by Police looking for the previous occupants of their rented accommodation. […]

Feminist Extremists attack Men’s Conference

Fri 13th June 2014:

The first international men’s conference has been labelled controversial as feminist extremists move to inflict maximum damage and disruption. Threats against the Detroit hotel complex hosting the conference brought a prompt demand from the venue owners, for organisers, A Voice For Men (AVFM), to engage off duty police officers for security, adding considerable cost to […]

CTU Pursues Forestry Prosecutions

Thu 12th June 2014:

If it had not been for the outcry from families losing loved ones, significant union pressure, and good media coverage, we would still be burying forestry workers, unaware of the growing callous disregard for human life within the industry. In two earlier posts New Zealand Forestry Industry out of control (Dec 2013) and more recently […]

Dairy owner murdered, 12 and 13 yo boys charged.

Fatal Stabbing: Boys Charged Thanks Sue Bradford and her arrogant feminist brigade that fought to erase male approaches, wisdom and strength from the area of disciplining children. We don’t know to what extent Bradford’s dishonest foolishness was a causal factor in this latest travesty, but we can confidently expect such events to increase into the […]

Statins for men

Wed 11th June 2014:

There has been some debate over statins in the British media in the last few days, which got me thinking, and of course this raises questions for the medical advisors to the site. Is heart disease more prevalent in men? I don’t know, I have never researched this, although I feel generally that I hear […]

Female assaults male

TVNZ’s reply to a complaint regarding the humorification (just invented new word :P) of a news item depicting female assaults male. Apparently, the complaints committee also thought that this was a mock-able event adding that it was a celebrity involved. We didn’t see them mocking when another celebrity was just held by the neck (not […]

Blatant Sexism ok for Fund Managers

Tue 10th June 2014:

This fund was set up to invest only in companies that have more women in top positions. Imagine the outcry, and probably much bullying from government departments, if a fund was set up for the purpose of investing in companies that only had males in charge! New index fund bets on women in charge 2:00 […]

Men’s Conference brings out the Feminasties

Sun 8th June 2014:

In a post late last year you may recall the announcement of the First International Conference on Men’s Issues, scheduled to take place 27-28 June 2014 in Detroit, Michigan. It has been revealed by conference organisers, A Voice For Men (AVFM), that feminist groups are intent on disrupting the conference and the nature of the […]

Boost in rape convictions wanted

Story here http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2650672/Most-rapists-dont-lurk-dark-alleys-wearing-balaclavas-say-prosecutors-boost-conviction-rates.html Why is it considered that the low conviction rate for sexual offences is letting so many women down? Interesting Yvette Cooper only says woman. Yvette Cooper must think the jury gets it wrong all of the time. Maybe she would like to change “beyond reasonable doubt” to something less like “possibly be […]

Australian Parliamentary Inquiry into Child Support

The Minister for Social Services, the Hon Kevin Andrews MP, has asked the Social Policy and Legal Affairs Committee to inquire into the Australian Child Support Program. Although it is not clear what the driving forces for the inquiry are this is certainly a far more substantial effort than we have seen in New Zealand. […]

Judith Collins Shows that Violence Towards Men is OK

Fri 6th June 2014:

This article is about our Judith Collins who will be paid by taxpayers to attend a celebrity-headed summit on ‘ending sexual violence in conflict’. Maybe that’s ok though it probably isn’t a good investment of NZ taxes. But the really objectionable thing about the article is the picture showing both Angelina Jolie and a smiling […]

Positive Changes in Family Law Under Attack from Feminists

The recent changes to family law are likely to lead to much greater safety because (i) contact with children will not automatically be wrecked by allegations of partner violence, (ii) disputing parties will be required to undertake either mediation (when there are no allegations of violence) or joint counselling (when there have been allegations of […]

Oh Wait, There’s More

Thu 5th June 2014:

Children thrown from bonnet – mother charged Actually, this one’s been referred to previously here on MENZ Issues but we liked the photo. So this mother drives quite fast around a park with two young children on the bonnet and crashes the car as shown. It could easily have been fatal for one or both […]

Sexism Continues to Entertain

Here’s a few other recent news articles of possible interest. US girls stab friend 19 times to please fictional creature Yes, two 12yo girls stabbed their friend to please a fictional creature they learned about online. Go figure. Well, I guess people have been doing similar stuff for a long time, killing others to please […]

Drunk Man Consented

Wed 4th June 2014:

Here’s the story A jury has accepted that a Christchurch man could have given consent for a sex act with another man while suffering from alcohol-induced amnesia. The 30-year-old defendant thanked the jury from the dock when it found him not guilty after 45 minutes at the end of the two-day trial. Don’t hate me, […]

US slayings expose sick world of misogyny

Thu 29th May 2014:

Remember Elliot Rodger, the deranged 22 year old student who a few days ago killed 6 people before taking his own life? In an article titled US slayings expose sick world of misogyny published by stuff.co.nz, Washington Post reporter feminasty Petula Dovrak has this to say: Elliot Rodger has exposed the sick world of the […]

Make verbal abuse of kids ‘an offence’

Wed 28th May 2014:

Here’s a live one for you: Detective Sergeant David Beattie, of New Plymouth, is fronting a call for legislation that recognises psychological abuse as an offence. Any one remember the Bradford Bill? Of course it’s fathers that are the bad guys here: “I have examples of a father calling his 10-year-old daughter a “little whore” […]

Domestic Violence Video

Tue 27th May 2014:

See here: You’ll want to click out straight away but don’t, watch it to the end. Don’t comment unless you’ve watched the whole video – it’s making a point.

Quality of Care Standard for Children

Mon 26th May 2014:

Although children in NZ are “protected”, it isn’t to any specified Quality of Care. On the basis that no real duty of care is required for children, the NZ Government slipped off the hook for any accountability at all! Other posts show how the Government is substantially failing to protect workers from serious hazards in […]

Humorous songs

Sun 25th May 2014:

I happened across this song entitled, ‘She only bitches when she breathes’. I’ll have to sum it up this way She could turn a straight man gay She only bitches when she breathes. I am sure there are some other good songs out there. If you know of one, add a link in the comments. […]
