“A shocking exposé of the inner workings of the $50 billion a year U.S. family law industry, Divorce Corp shines a bright light on the appalling waste, and shameless collusive practices seen daily in family courts. It is a stunning documentary film that anyone considering marriage or divorce must see.” Whilst United States centric; there […]

I am thinking of the men and children who are facing Christmas day as separated or divorced. More so if it’s your first. It can be daunting and awkward and ofden nasty. My heartfelt sorrow and support to all those in this position. All I can say is treat the matter as a transitional period […]

This is one hell of a story; the sort of story you’d hope to only find in a book. Helen Milner (aged 50) who has become known as the Black Widow during the course of her trial, was today found guilty by a jury at the High Court in Christchurch for the murder of her […]

If you have any information about unsafe logging procedures that are likely to cause death or injury to workers email me at [email protected] Out of the 100 serious forestry incidents for 2013, 10% have been fatal.

Many men all over the world have been unwillingly separated from their children. Some have no idea where those children are or even what they might look like today. Some may meet again, others will not. Some people do go looking, and those that successfully find each other are occasionally reported in the media. At […]

I just happened to be at the Doctor’s today, and as you do picked up a magazine (I was actually reading it, not just looking at the pictures) – it was a Metro – and as they do, can turn just about anything into a story; in this case it was the Dan Carter underpants […]

BBC article – the return of the female condom Interesting how this came about. Then one day in 1995, Leeper received a telephone call from a woman called Daisy, responsible for Zimbabwe’s HIV and Aids programme. “She said, ‘I have a petition here on my desk signed by 30,000 women demanding that we bring in […]

This is an article from Russia which I found interesting for two reasons. Firstly it talks about some of the issues that confront us, and secondly it is a comparison to the campaign Colin Craig is running. Russia’s power is moral and military says Putin is based on a state of the nation address given […]

In a rare move, the Court of Appeal in October 2012 overturned the acquittal, finding the act criminal because the man had “actively encouraged” the boys to masturbate. This is how it is … A man accused of turning his garage into a den for child abuse appealed his charges today at the Supreme Court, […]

Helen Milner’s alleged poisoning of her Husband is an interesting story of how women display their violence toward their partners. There are 2 points of interest to me. 1. Poisoning does appears initially as a non violent act. ie there are no visual physical signs of the resultant action apart from death. Violence as a […]

We will no longer participate in ‘debate’ here because it is not safe to do so given some participants’ tendency to respond with personal attacks, insults and rudeness. We regret this but still see MENZ Issues as an important repository for men’s movement and gender political news, so we will post our significant correspondence and […]
