This is something I have wondered about for quite some time – whether electronic bail is applied more liberally for the ‘fairer sex’ for the same crime?
A 29 year old woman, arrested yesterday, appeared in the Blenheim District Court this morning, charged with drug related offending and breaching electronic bail conditions.
The prisoner has been remanded in custody with further charges pending.
In a statement from police today we see:
Marlborough Police will not tolerate the supply and use of illicit drugs and will continue to work to reduce the harm on our community.
Is it the case that further offending and additional police work is caused by the biased application of electronic bail involving female offenders?
What the hell…could you imagine a male getting the possible same treatment if the roles were reversed.

This was a weird one. The heading was ‘Husband’s shocking texts reveal reality of domestic violence‘. Well we might have missed something but the texts didn’t seem shocking and there was nothing showing domestic violence happening or having happened. Is it we or they who are irrational? Or is it a cynical production of a false news story to cash in on the feminist fashion and cater to a market of unthinking bigots who will believe, without critical thinking or careful attention to the body of the article, any headline that fits their beliefs. The editor of the NZ Herald must also have fallen into that category. That list of women’s refuge and support groups must get quite good ratings because many opportunities are made to include it.

This article describes a video for property investors etc encouraging them to target ‘divorcees’ among others and to employ tactics such as working together with others to add credibility to low offers. While this is not exclusively a men’s issue, men should be aware of it.

Others such as tradesmen or workers employed to prepare a property, relatives, and of course lawyers may also seek to exploit the separated couple who will almost always be vulnerable and will have their judgment impaired through grief, anger and other emotions: (more…)

This Australian tragedy appears to be another example of the pernicious effects of feminism. An 18yo woman attacked and murdered her grandfather because he criticized her mother’s parenting skills. While we don’t know the details of the history etc, you can be sure that part of the picture involved feminist thought patterns demonizing men, beliefs that men have no right to criticize women or when they do it’s unacceptable patriarchal power and control.

7 deaths in a 2 week period in NZ-all men.
And none of these jobs (forestry, construction, farming) have been adjudged as worthy of a payrise. The danger alone in these occupations warrants financial acknowledgement.
Yet when caregivers were compared to prison officers (another dangerous occupation) they were deemed as being discriminated against.
The logic (or lack thereof), and blatant disregard for male workers is appalling. It cannot be justified giving caregivers a raise when there are so many other worthy, indispensable, highly-skilled people oriented occupations that get squat!

Dear Mr Davis
I am writing to express general disappointment at your decision not to host the men’s summit in April. Apparently you had made a commitment around Christmas time but then pulled out with the statement “Not only will criticism of feminism NOT be tolerated, even ALMOST criticism will not be tolerated”. For an ex-Primary school Principal this is fairly questionable English! (more…)

The news recently that workers in 3 female dominated areas (professions?) ie aged residential care, home support, disability services is to be heralded
It will cost $500 million a year and no doubt will be borne by the rest of us. Such a sweeping pay rise is not linked to productivity and so could set a precedent for other state workers to make a substantial collective claim. A pay rise of ,say, $10,000 a year multiplied by 20,000 secondary Teachers would still be less than half the overall cost to the tax-payer announced this week.
Indispensable that aged care givers and disability workers are, you nevertheless don’t usually see headlines to the effect ” residential care workers leaving Auckland” or “bosses look overseas for suitable disability workers”
Teaching and nursing are female dominated professions but their unions have been conspicuous by their silence. The NZEI are the only ones that have spoken out-and then only for Teacher Aides.
I am the first to applaud these workers for their victory but it still smells of misandry ie “victory for women” in the media.
There are equally deserving state professions/jobs-police, firemen, ambulance drivers, bus drivers, trades,………. All predominantly male. Where is the pay-rise for these workers?
Maybe it is time for men to lodge a complaint with the Human Rights office of discrimination based on gender.

Does anyone know what my liability situation should be after my child turns 18?; i.e. child will soon be 18 (next month) but mother has a history of allowing child to take multiple days off school and consequently impaired the child’s education. Child is currently not enrolled at any school that I know of because she left her last overseas school several weeks ago without a graduation certificate and mother, being an obstructive psycho, has made no effort to let me know what school my child is now enrolled in. She is now back in NZ so god only knows if her Canadian credits are worth anything as far as contributing to NCEA credits are concerned??? Can she just chop and change schools and still expect me to pay child support even though child will be 18, has only 60% of necessary overseas school credits which are the rough equivalent to Year 11 NCEA credits? Like I mentioned, I don’t know if these are transferrable. I hasten to add that my child is gifted in the most positive sense of the word and her academic achievements have been greatly hampered by her mother keeping her out of school, sometimes 12 months at a time. The mother has manipulated the system very well over the last 15 years and keeping my child at school until she’s 19, despite having almost zero chance of attaining her certificate in that time, is just another example of this. As a caring dad, I would love to think that one more years’ child support would help my daughter gain her NCEA and help set her up for life but my fear is that she will be setup to fail and face humiliation from fellow students just so her mother can get another year’s child support. I have every reason to believe this because her mother has seen to it that my daughter has only been attaining about one half of the necessary points per year so far and at that pace would need at least 2 and a half more years at school and graduate when she’s 21 (approx.). I have posted a similar post previously but the situation is now different as my child is back in NZ. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have included some excerpts from the IRD site below:=== http://www.ird.govt.nz/help/demo/cs-changing-vid/cs-qualifying-age-transcript.html
From 1 April 2016, the qualifying age for children to be included in a child support assessment is under 18 unless the child is aged 18 and enrolled at and attending a school. This change applies to children you receive or pay child support for and children you’ve named as dependents.
“Child support stops when your child turns 18. But there’s an exception to this. If your child is enrolled and attending secondary school in NZ or an overseas school, child support will continue. But you need to tell us their plans.”
“But since Tom will still be at school after his 18th birthday and we are told straight away, child support will continue until the day before he turns 19 – or the day before he leaves school – whichever comes first. However, if the school year finishes before his 19th birthday, payments will stop on the 31st December.

A US female lawmaker has put forward a bill that would require men in Texas fined US$100 if they have masturbated without supervision.
I note that no such anti masturbation law is required for woman. Just males. Fine is US$100.
