A conservative leader who would speak up against the woke madness would, I am sure, win hearts and minds very quickly. The media would lambast them but only for a time. Pessuto will not even speak up against trans-nonsense FFS. He fears what the Guardian would say and that the doctors in Fitzroy would vote against him. He is wrong. Everyone I speak to knows that reparations, BLM, treaties, gender theory, DEI and cancel culture are just wrong.

I might post this elsewhere, but: has there been or is there someone who was charged with false charges, children removed from his custody, etc., etc., and it was found that ‘she’ had lied but never charged and then ‘he’ is still suffering because of the charges/courtcase; that then went higher in Australian Courts or even European Human Rights Commission or some such body?

I am not the one to do it, but has anyone raised money for a man in such a position or currently doing so?

I'm thinking of in Australia....

Such a brilliant article Bettina. Thank you. The sad thing is that the LNP under Morrison was even more feminist in many ways than the ALP had been up to that point. Obviously the ALP will not change direction on feminism, given the ideology is part of the left wing thinking. However the LNP needs to understand that votes are in counting modern feminism - not funding it.

The LNP is just as feminised as the Labor/Greens, that’s why anti-man laws have prevailed over recent decades. What’s the difference between a left wing feminist and a right wing feminist? not much , the right wing feminist might wear business suits and be a CEO, but their contempt for working class MEN is just as strong.

The corporate world has embraced feminism with an enthusiasm which is beyond belief , in the words of Peter Hitchens “ the alliance between the multinational corporations and feminism is the most cynical since the Hitler /Stalin pact of pre WW2”

The mean girls in Labor's federal cabinet are in complete charge of the ALP nationally at this time.

Thanks Bettina. Our current Australian PM is a weak man and thus Zero. Election time soon enough and he will be gone. Keep up the great work :-)

My song to all lawmakers and politicians...

Played to the music of Tracy Chapman "Talkin bout a Revolution"

Don't you know

We're talking about a revolution?

It sounds like a whisper

Don't you know

Talking about a revolution?

It sounds like a whisper

While we're standing in those hallowed halls

Crying at the doorsteps of the court of obliteration

Wasting time with paperwork trails,

Sitting around alone and in silence

Don't you know

Talking about a revolution?

It sounds like a whisper

All men are gonna rise up

And get their share

All men are gonna rise up

And take what's fair

Don't you know you better run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run

And perhaps by then my kids will run, run, run, run, run, run

back to me.

'Cause finally the tables might start to turn

Talkin' 'bout a revolution

'Cause finally the tables might start to turn

Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh no

Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh

I’ve been standing in those hallowed halls

Crying at the doorsteps of the court of obliteration

Wasting time with paperwork trails,

Sitting around alone and in silence

Don't you know

Talking about a revolution?

It sounds like a whisper

And finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin' 'bout a revolution

Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh, no

Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh, no

Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh, no

The rise in feminism and the unfair advantage women had was often referred to as the “pendulum” swinging too far , women were happy for this to happen and revelled in the benefits, but do we now see the pendulum swinging back ? Extreme Feminism has triggered an extreme reaction and it’s gaining momentum , women risk losing any gains made unless the leaders of the feminist movement realise they have pushed men and society too far and rethink their anti-man rhetoric.

Men and women need to cooperate if a society is to succeed .

Great article but winning seems an exaggeration, considering that Trump is pretty corrupt like any other politician, but is good that there is some progress! In Italy and Spain feminism is still quite strong as well!

I thank Bettina for her support and high lighting the plight of men who face false charges! But I did not give Bettina the $70, it was taken! When we support our sons we are hurting financially, and organisations who automatically take the next years’ subscription will themselves cause public to not financially support organizations.

Excellent article. I believe Trump will do the right thing by men, children and families in many areas and hope this new direction spreads to Australia bringing with it the end to feminist indoctrination and insanity, Wokeism, DEI etc.

Pretty stupid and naive quite frankly.

Sorry Bettina, but trump is still a gynocentrist. He ran on a party platform of getting men out of womens sports, while kens sports continue to be discriminated against under title ix.

Until female supremacism is called out culturally, and women as a class take a Hit to their reputation built up by centuries of feminism, the problem is not going away.

If you literally aren't culturally allowed to say that swaths of women have done something wrong, then the problem is not going to go away.

I asked a female friend: would you say Trump is a gynocentrist?

No I don't think so. was the reply.

this is one of the problems in this world right now... understanding the jargon... who and where and in relationship to what is a big thing.. context means a lot.

Left hand says Yes

Right hand says No

I heard Trump mention women's health, men's health, and children's health on the television news, in that order. Let's hope he is true to his word on that.

Thank you Bettina as a mandatory reporter we need to report the harm the system is doing to our society and its domino effect it has as a whole. We need to bring the misandrynists out into the open by asking them what it is they are trying to achieve and for what reasons then give them the facts and the effects on society as a whole how their selfish behaviour plays out and destroys what it is they are trying to achieve. We need to give them solutions not fight show them teach them how this one eyed lady justice has unbalanced the scales of justice and how integrity will always be secure and those who deal in lies will be found out

Guess we will never know. I am suggesting HE would keep the kids . I dont know about you but I would feel far less protective of a wife who nagged and white anted me with the kids and everyone else, plus slept around with everyone but me. THEN I met a lovely woman who was interested. Ask your mates. I agree it is women who break up the home more than men do, BUT they would NOT if they were going to lose everything the way men do. The present situation REWARDS women for false accusation and separation. REWARDS!

Domestic violence applications need to be considered on merit and your sex should not be the deciding factor if it is to be granted. There needs to be an anonymous means of lodgement a number instead of name. I suffer from PTSD as a result of biased laws I still have flashbacks when the magistrate at Holland Park Queensland in 1994 told me that my wife did not need any proof and all she had to say was that she was scared frightened of what might happen as there was no violence and she was granted an order and I came close to committing suicide as I was a clean and sober living person at the time but ended up turning to alcohol to kill the pain of not being able to see my children and kicked out of my home that I built I worked hard to have a home before I met my wife who shared a bedroom with her sister in her parents home she was 6 years older than me we was together for 7 years as a result of me losing my Jockeys licence I was no longer able to support the same lifestyle and that's when she didn't need me no longer and decided to leave me. The laws are there to protect all sexes this is the problem the magistrate are not applying the law and women are able to cry wolf without any repercussions even when there is crystal clear factual evidence that demonstrates the woman is lying. I was hospitalised recently after suffering from PTSD triggered by a false application for domestic violence when I had undisputed evidence that I was assaulted physically ran over by woman rider on a horse and attempted whipped to the head suffering from what happened to me 30 years ago the woman had a smart solicitor who used the law for wrongful purposes and nothing happens to these people as they are allowed to cry wolf and perpetrate from a victim status it is a covert under handed created by stereotyping the man as a violent person.

Andy, your experience is becoming the normal, as more men battle being served Avos on the decision of the woman being able to “move” on with all property as they flick the man in their child’s/children’s life. Suddenly I understand why Trump won. Governments can’t allow women to treat men the way they are. These men have families!!!! False reports are wrong! Fraud is fraud!

I'm OK these days Been SOBER for 28 years and full of LOVE but wrong is wrong and two wrongs doesn't make it right if we are going to win the fight against corruption we need to come from a loving space and look for solution conflict resolution never compromise our human rights don't fall the politicians trap of division by taking sides there is only one team the human team never retaliate no revenge it's OK to be angry but don't live in the problem educate yourself as much as you can remain neutral put principles before personalities and take away the fight and the argument so these liars cannot justify bad behaviour show them up by having integrity you might never get back what could of been but you can still help the next poor bustard remember your not the only one those who have integrity will always be secure those who deal in lies will be found out. Starve the disease the wolf you feed is the wolf that will win I choose good.

So sorry for your shocking experience, sadly you are not alone. The legal system favours women over men and children and it’s getting worse. I hope you can rebuild a new life and one day soon your children realise your worth.

Thank you for caring feeling sorry doesn't help and your right I am not alone I am no longer a victim these days but I do like to share my experience and not be silenced by my abusers we need to talk about it as not only are women being killed at an alarming rate and getting worse from an over reaction and a band aid cure applied to the symptoms of a corrupt system but men are committing suicide at an alarming rate instead of dividing men and women so there is two sides to create a war we need to treat the core issues as a whole as a human problem as it doesn't just effect women it effects brothers sisters mothers fathers grand parents children it effects us all we need justice for the whole not just one side if you put too much weight on one side the scales will topple and fall we need balance fairness level equal not be tricked into over reacting we need to look at it as a whole not a half we need to have power with not against never swim against a rip or you will drown

“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice; it is conformity.” - Earl Nightingale (attributed to Rollo May)

By this definition, you have lived a courageous life for many decades, Bettina. Your newspaper articles pointing out the systemic biases in the Family Court some 25 years ago were a beacon of sanity for me, when I was navigating these very biases in wake of my marriage dissolution. I thank you and honour you for your tenacity and for your unwavering passion for the health and wellbeing of men and boys in this age of misandry. My sense is that your ongoing advocacy for men and boys will ultimately turn the tide against the systemic misandry in our governmental institutions, NGOs and the mainstream media. Many thanks.

Yes it is women like Bettina that has helped restore my faith also and importantly informed me and helped educate me and know that I am not alone and validated me as a human being with good qualities and feelings. I can thank Bettina for this means to be able to express my concerns rather than drinking myself to death without purpose. People like Bettina help me to have a voice in a loving way rather than be hateful and bitter from the systems abuse inflicted upon me as I Love all woman as I do all humans it is the people who are neglecting to uphold the principles of justice and putting personalities before what is just as a whole they are dividing humans and band aiding the symptoms and not treating the core issues as a whole.

In terms of tactics I think the best thing is to look for the things that Feminists target to "no platform" . They are clever and have been successful so it is likely they have a good analysis of how to achieve success, and what they most need to conceal. What they "no platform" will be what they most fear will undermine their success. The other observation is from psychology. Men are far more likely to be motivated by abstract ideas. Injustice, unfairness, hypocrisy, dishonesty are things to motivate men. Whereas female voters are more likely to look to their feelings and stories, hence the great wisdom of getting women, mothers, to campaign for men. Finally the trump card (sorry unintended pun) for the feminists is the idea males are a threat to women so don't slide into appearing to condone or be soft on men who are a threat (or perceived to be) to females. This last point is the strongest card for feminists with both women and men and is why "Violence against women and girls" is trotted out as linked to everything from children's toys to female CEOs and if they struggle with evidence for VAWG is hard to find in their own country they'll rope in Rape in Indian provinces or the Taliban in Afghanistan.

"if they struggle with evidence for VAWG is hard to find in their own country"

The UK has it worked out. They count male victims of domestic or sexual abuse as victims of "violence against women and girls".

I think as Men we need to harness the violence against women but also look at the core issue not treat the symptoms as a band aid approach and keep treating what has been turned into a worsening issue by picking at the scab. Men instinctively protect women and children. The natural order of male and female has been displaced and the natural harmony no longer works as you need both opposites like a nut and a bolt for it to work or negative and positive current working in unison otherwise the electric motor will not revolve. I am unsure if I am supposed to act unnatural and do everything like a woman so I can be perceived as being equal do I open the car door or do I not in case the woman thinks I'm being coercive or making her feel less than. I know for the human race to exist we need both sexes so we need to have same rights and opportunities but let's not discriminate on the basis of sex and a humans strengths and weaknesses because of their differences let's look at our similarities and needs and focus on men and women as a whole not just fix and realign the thread on the bolt or only the nut but both threads so we can support each other otherwise it will not work trying to mend half the issue

What is the issue? Equality well let's make it equal. Domestic Violence by men against women? Well let's punish the men who do it but let's get proof first and not condemn innocent men good men who protect and uphold woman by allowing solicitors registrars police and magistrates send good men to an early grave and turn them into angry resentful revengeful human beings. Let's reward good behaviour and stop the lying and cheating and structured manufactured beliefs and propaganda being spread and taught in schools advertising stereotyping all men as potential killers based on his sex. Women are not just dying at the hand of men women are dying as a result of the injustices being handed down to men Any man will get angry if you take his children away especially without reason. If Good Men and good women cannot see eye to eye to what is human rather than based on a person's gender the human will destroy each other and domestic violence will win and this is why domestic violence is winning the war between the sexes if we want harmony we need natural order we need to give back the rooster his roost and stop the hens from crowing it is unnatural.

It interesting.

I just did a google search for a bit of fun. The first thing I searched was 'funding for female education. Interesting and promising reply from Google. There is loads of funding to broaden women's education and support their endeavors, and there should be.

Take away two letters and search for funding for male education. Fuck me, it is all about funding for consent laws and to foster respectful relationships.

The graph shows that young men are slightly more to the centre, but that young women have become completely unhinged and extreme in their left opinions. Women's brains don't work the same as men's and its mostly emotion that drives the left agenda.
