My local federal member has agreed to speak to me about the Family Law Bill and other related issues regarding men and boys. I have so much I want to say and ask I feel overwhelmed. I'll have to stay focused on a few key points whereas I want to open his eyes to the endless gynocentrism in our society in countless areas.

George the TinMen wrote the below

If you use semantic sleight of hand to secretly define men out of an issue, then exactly 0% of them are impacted.

Let me show you…

Men are half of ‘domestic violence’ victims.

But 0% of victims of ‘violence against women’ are men.

Sadly for Bruce L, the burden of proof in civil matters is substantially lower than for criminal matters. In a trial like this it will all come down to whether or not the judge on the bench believes Brittany H, or believes that Brittany H should be believed.

I fear for Bruce L. The recent High Court decision on detainees has shown the prevalence of activist judges in Australia is on the rise again, and an activist judge fed feminist guidelines for gendered crimes may prove to be a burden of proof too biased to be overcome. The abuse of power in the ABS shows the level of gender bias has become so entrenched in Australian institutions and academia, that blatant misandry through the manipulative presentation of epidemiological data goes un-noticed and unchallenged.

"Where are the eligible young men?

"You, upwardly mobile messes, along with your feminist ilk, drove many to suicide."

I also hear that 16 days of activism regarding gendered violence are about to begin. Brace yourselves for another bombardment of lies , half truths and the denigration of masculinity.

May I ask, "what is gendered violence?" If a man strikes a women because she lied, had an affair and ripped his children from his life, is that gendered violence? Or is it a case of one person who has been pushed beyond the limits of human restraint lashes out at the person who is the cause of their agony?

Is the fact that around the world 95% of capital punishment is inflicted on men gendered violence or does that simply get filed under "men deserve everything that comes their way!"

They invent new words and categories which are totally meaningless. When is any violence perpetrated on a female not gendered violence and why is the reverse not considered gendered violence?

The modern world is now a mental asylum.

What is “gendered violence”? You would have to say it is meaningless drivel concocted by brain dead feminists hell bent on attacking men in any way possible.

There is no connection between these two words and it is bad English to attempt to do so. Where are the scholars and professors of English when you need them , to call out this abuse of the language of Shakespeare , oh yes I forgot they are all too afraid to speak their mind , they might lose the easy jobs at the feminist controlled universities .

"May I ask, "what is gendered violence?""

The majority of the victims of violence committed by males are boys and men AND the majority of the victims of violence committed by females are also boys and men. Additionally the preferred target for everybody is also, as we should expect, the preferred target for blame. When the victim is male it is compulsory to blame the victim.

Apparently about 85% of the world's violence targets males. It is very much gendered. Unfortunately the empathy gap is so broad you'd need a radio telescope to see the other side.

Bettina,

Who was directly responsible for altering that graph? They have to be questioned and held to account for such a diabolical sleight of hand. That is pure evil. What kind of sick zealot hates men so much they literally choose to hide the truth about the horrific suicide rate of our men?

I feel ill thinking about it. The invisibility of male suffering is not a result of ignorance or error. It is a coldly calculated action and one that has been enacted for decades.

We are dealing with genuinely evil people.

This should restart the push for a MINISTER for MEN , it is only fair and there is no excuse. But the feminists would say that men are the “patriarchy “ and as such do not need any extra representation ,usually given to minorities or victims of discrimination.

Women in modern day Australia are neither a “minority” nor discriminated against , so the argument to close the Ministry for Women is just as strong as the argument to open a Ministryfor Men.

In other words we either have ministries for BOTH genders or none at all, in the name of equality .

I hope the hard working people who organised the shoe protest can find strength and support to continue the fight , a semi permanent protest at the Federal Parliament would be a good step , even invite people to bring more old boots , make sure politicians can not avoid the issue .

Narrow escape just for now. I am sure this won´t be after the trail. It becomes with everyday clearer that this allegation by Britney was in fact a fabricated one. There was no sex at all. It was, as Bruce said, a white lie to protect her job to start with. Lisa should have known better. Accusations without evidence ar lies.

Todays Sunday Mail page 13, has Albanese has called on men ( not women) to step up to stop Domestic Violence. 53 women have been killed as a result of Domestic Violence this year.

Here we have a Prime Minister ignoring the 2500 men who suicided because of family break ups, false allegations, becoming homeless & unemployed. When is Albanese going to step up and support men, would he turn his back on his son if he needed help. My guess is he would.

Albanese and all the male cowards in parliament disgust me.

Albanese, is not only tied to the apron strings, he still has the umbilical cord attached.

Albanese was raised by a single parent his mother , it shows in his total subservience to the women in his party and women in general . At a time when the nation needs a strong man to lead we a stuck with a feminist puppet.

But don’t expect Peter Dutton to be any different , did he show support for the mens suicide protest? , did he come out of the rabbit warren and talk to the parents of the young men driven to suicide by a biased family court? NO .

One Nation senators did and credit to them and Pauline Hanson the only politicians with any compassion.

So, were you really being "gracious," or did you just not want to sit next to the bitch?

I think there was mutual relief about not sitting next to one another! I once knew her well- even went to her wedding! But clearly our paths have diverged since. 😆

There is no reason for even producing the misleading graph. Why would anyone seek to hide the truth that more men are finding no reason to live than women are? What I would like to see is a graph comparing suicides of these two sexes, precipitated by actions of their partners, such as alienation of the children from their father or mother, limitation of access to their children and frequency of false accusation of domestic violence.

Sure there is. Any requirement for men to receive support reduces the pool of cash and sympathy dedicated to women. Haven't you worked that out yet? :)

Yes. Years ago i realised the power of money. and self interest. . However, that is completely irrelevant. I am suggesting that this situation be remedied.

I get that, thanks Ross. It was a Tongue-in-cheek, cynical question on the end of the reason and you're 1000% right, this entire "Women are Great, Men deserve Hate" mantra needs killing off.

yes the smile gave me a clue neil. maybe the legal lot could be persuaded that there would be longer cases if they weren't just as open and shut based on prejudice as they are now. longer cases more profit for the law bunch.
