There is a short space of time between the male suffrage (12 years from memory) and one person one vote. Not to rehash our history – most of us know that bit.
There was a long discussion on this site in 2017 and what that might mean if Ardern became New Zealand’s prime minister.
Two elections later and if only men voted would Ardern still get the popular vote?
Complaints about NZ court Judges are not rare. Complaints proceeding to a hearing are extremely uncommon.
Last season there were 162 complaints. This year, 363 complaints.
Statistics show that complaints about the Family Court have doubled.
The Judge is entitled to have name suppression.
Judicial Conduct Commissioner’s Alan Richie on his said “On my assessment, the conduct, if established, would fall well short of accepted judicial standards.”
This is what separates the men from the women and the boys from the men – if you care about your country, you don’t have a choice but to understand and discuss these issues when politics fails to function.

Warren Farrell is a political scientist, activist, and author of seven books on men’s and women’s issues including his latest title “The Boy Crisis”
Bettina speaks with New Zealander Peter Joyce, the author of Dry Ice, which documents the seven-month ordeal which followed a false allegation of historical rape. Peter, a retired English teacher, first heard about the allegation when a detective turned up at the door and announced Peter had been accused a rape by a daughter of a friend – whom he had never met. It turned out that she had accused her father of repeatedly and systematically raping her in her childhood and recruiting his friends, including Peter, to do the same.

Previously I posted the open letter to the Human Rights Commission asking them to do more for men, but they have not responded even though I did send them a reminder. So I have started a video series highlighting their human rights violations. Here is part one.
I can understand the reluctance to discuss covid and the need to be careful about how this is discussed.
I’ve seen the situation censured twice recently.

There are likely many Covid-19 tragedies so far untold, with people accepting their position in the belief that their circumstance was unavoidable until we have a unique tragedy that actually makes us all sit up and realistically analyse such questions.
It’s not the first time that an event like this has begged an answer.
It has long been said a photo is worth a thousand words. I attached 2 photos.
And as we already know, its 4 males to 1 female.
The Government is trying to save lives, right? If you are male, it isn’t you.
Interesting research published about teenage boys.
Teenage boys more at risk from vaccines than Covid
You don’t see very much of that these days, do you?
Have we ever had one of those before?
Good or Bad … how’s your day been.
Hi folks.
I’m separated for almost 3 years. There are two children who spend 5 nights every fortnight with me. their mother and I have a toxic relationship. We are attending FDR and still going through family court.
Against my wishes, my daughter was given an iPhone 12 a year ago by her mother, she was 12 years old then.

I see media from Australian sources about the pressure on their helplines with the current Delta outbreak.
I assume at this time, especially with the Lockdown extensions announced yesterday we will have a similar situation in New Zealand.
If you’ve found this site for some reason what has brought you here?
A family court case disrupted by the lockdown perhaps? Maybe other reasons?
Three years in prison. Left wondering if we would still be able to openly post on this site should the bill become law.
Will I no longer be able to hate the haters of men and boys human rights?
It’s not breaking news that gang numbers are on the rise and organised crime is developing across the country.
What are the concerns … ? (more…)
This video clip labels feminism as a hate group. It compares white America 60 years ago.
Its not about what they feel and think, it’s about what they do.
1. Advocates lesser rights in law for the target group.
2. Propagates discrimination against the target group.
3. Teaches that the target group is inherently inferior.
4. Teaches that the target group is a threat.
5. Use lies including historical revisionism to spread these views.
6. Tolerates violence towards the target group.
If you change the words “Target Group” to men, boys or fathers. The picture becomes easier to see.
1. Advocates lesser rights in law for men, boys or fathers.
2. Propagates discrimination against men, boys or fathers.
3. Teaches that the men, boys or fathers are inherently inferior.
4. Teaches that the men, boys or fathers are a threat.
5. Use lies, including historical revisionism to spread these views.
6. Tolerates violence towards men, boys or fathers.
There are moves to punish hate speech. But in my view it is more than hate speech. It has to be hate actions and hate laws. Discrimination against men, fathers and boys.

Near 5000 comments on YouTube on this short video. Just awful outcomes for men and fathers.
The careless attitude towards men and fathers is leading to a future that women will find uncertain, isolated, expensive and unrewarding.

I have not had much time to read this, but I do know the terms “without notice application” features 66 times. And that process has been used to stop or limit dads child contact.
While there is mention of the length of time, one being over three years, there is no mention of alienation. Which, that along with having an order for dwelling and all the things in it vested into one parent, is the true reason why without notice applications are applied for.
In more simple terms,
1. “the destruction of a dads relationship with his child.”
2. “the kicking out of his home”
3. “the taking away of all the items in that home”
Where do fathers and men go, what are they supposed to do when this happens to them?
According to the Nurit Thesis, this causes male suicide.
Nurit Zubery wrote a thesis on the impacts of men during and after divorce.

Former frontline Police Officer Evelyn Rae, 12 years of service, tells all in a recent interview with Bettina Arndt.
Says 75% of woman allegations of domestic violence are false.
Says in all her years can honestly say just 3 legitimate cases of sexual assault, everything else was false allegation or no evidence. Says this is the hard truth.
Says Police can’t stand the system.
The success of any nation is in the unity of its men, the support of its women, and the morality of its laws.
Without the brotherhood of men, we risk not fulfilling our duty to those significant values that we have learned underpin the ideological basis and success, not only of a sovereign nation but of any global civilisation we might hope for.

PM on Human Right – Except for Men & Boys
Ever wondered why you lost half your home, and all the items in it to a part-time girlfriend? Perhaps you lost the right to see your children? Maybe a huge weekly payment on top of that. Look no further than the idealogical people who get to decide how much to take away from you.
Maybe it was the Presumption of Guilt link Mr John Potter highlighted here. Presumption of Guilt: Rule of Law Conference 2021
That Jacinda Adern on human rights for all speech did not include or give one iota of a mention towards men or boys.
Mothers protect your son’s wellbeing from this woman who has no intention to make his life safe or better.
In my view the Labour party’s approach to dad and male suicide is educate them before they reach their limit of brutality. Before they are pushed too far. What is wrong with “don’t be brutal to men and dads in the first place.”
I don’t know if the other parties are better for dads and men, but it is clear to me this party is not.
All these things that lead to male suicide are detailed in an open letter to the Humans Rights Commission by Mr Iain Fergusson.
Open letter to the Human Rights Commission
What I would really like to see is an open letter to all the political parties to detail their plan to reduce the brutality on dads, men and boys.
History dictates that when civilization falls apart older men marry younger women.
We see that in biblical history and in the history of Rome.
In the current age I’ve recently seen adds saying Asian women like older men.
What’s that about?
If you’re currently in the dating game, how’s it going for you?
Justice-Minister, Kris Faafoi is in the firing line with parents rights groups over the latest invasion of the family by state legislation.
Family First NZ says that if parents aren’t concerned about the conversion therapy bill introduced by the Government today, all they need to do is listen to the Minister of Justice explain the effect of the bill, and parents will quickly become very fearful.
I’ve written an open letter to the Human Rights Commission asking for them to explicitly protect men’s human rights. It’s rather long. You can read it here: genderbalancing.wordpress.com/2021/05/20/open-letter-to-the-new-zealand-human-rights-commission/
No response so far.
It does not matter if it was a can of petrol or a gun. Angela Surtees executed this man.
The sentence is still not released, but I suspect it will just be time already served.
What I found interesting is 2 links on the first news story to Mens help lines.
One is Mens referral service and the other Mensline. Are we entering a new era?

NZ teacher Peter Joyce’s settled life was disrupted when a woman he had never met accused him of historic rape. With a unique brand of angry humour, his diary plots the stages of his despair and traces his attempts to find justice in the face of the current insistence that we must “believe the victim”.
Dry Ice is a compelling memoir, but much more. The accusation made the writer a reluctant expert on similar cases from all over the world. He throws light on everything that limits public knowledge of false sexual allegations, from dangerous counselling to flawed statistics, and he exposes police investigation methods as blinkered, inefficient and insensitive.
