Masculinity Deconstructed, Liberated and Unchained A recent episode of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher featured an interview with Rebecca Traister, feminist and author of All the Single Ladies, who sang praises for the book’s themes of the rise of independent women and gender equality. Among other things, she noted that more than 50 million unmarried women are now working, escaping male oppression. That total has been rising fast, with females now representing about half of the U.S. labor force. Indeed, the progress seen so far has inspired the National Organization for Women (NOW) to lessen its emphasis on workplace equality and focus instead onRead More →

  AIFS “Experiences of Separated Parents Study” reveals high levels of domestic violence against men In October 2015, the Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS) released its Experiences of Separated Parents Study – part of its evaluation of the 2012 family violence amendments by the Federal Government. The study examined the experiences of two cohorts of parents, in 2012 and 2014, the latter a total of 6,079 parents who separated between 1 July 2012 and 31 December 2013, representing parents’ post-reform experience of the family law system. The data indicate that family violence is a common experience among separated parents, with a majority of participating parentsRead More →

Here I sit early evening the day before Father’s Day. Usually, by now, I have finished whatever is it that moved me to write a Father’s Day article for anyone who wanted to read it. Usually, by now, I have had some sort of epiphany and words begin to flow around some central theme. Not this year. Here I sit, early evening, less than six hours to Father’s Day, nada. Then he showed up. My attorney friend, a good man, divorced many years. One daughter in Florida and a son in San Diego, both young adults, she is married and my attorney friend is nowRead More →

In a 1970s BBC documentary, Angry Wimmin, angry lesbians said that Patriarchy Theory was THEIR WAY to wage war against men. Nothing ambiguous about it. Lesbian Feminist Scholars Lesbian feminist author Maria Mies once wrote, “If patriarchy had a specific beginning in history, it can certainly have an end.” As with other feminist scholars, a group dominated by mostly white lesbians who share a perversely narrow-minded perspective, Mies is convinced that patriarchy–as well as the male sex–is oppressive and malevolent to women. Ostensibly, they advocate for female equality, but their lengthy lectures say otherwise. Their words detail a horrendously aggressive fraternity of privileged white menRead More →

Formulating the New Male Studies Curriculum I recently submitted an article about women who sexually assault and rape boys and young men to Feminist Wire.[i] Naively, I expected the magazine would jump at the opportunity to address this growing threat by publishing what I had written. Instead, they rejected my work, offering up the following excuse: We recognize and agree that sexual violence against boys and men are an important and necessary feminist issue. However, we are concerned with the framing of this piece, which focuses on the “flip” (“women do it too”) that doesn’t account for the dominant power relationships and contexts of institutionalizedRead More →

NCFM Kenya Liaison Kennedy Owino’s report on genital mutilation and a related seminar near the Kenya-Tanzania border Lenkisem is a small village found on a vast flat land to the South of Sultan Hamud in Kajiado County. We were able to access the area driving on a murram road snaking through a jungle which is full of short scattered thorny trees, baobab,cactus, euphobia,an undergrowth of green grass and various other species of trees. The area has fertile sandy soil which supports a variety of vegetation. The goats and sheep I saw there were healthy and the cows were  gigantic. On our way back we were luckyRead More →

Rape Culture Hysteria: Fixing the Damage Done to Men and Women offers a comprehensive overview and debunking of the “rape culture” myth that has devastated campuses and is spilling into Main Street America. An ideological madness is grotesquely distorting North America’s view of sexuality. The book applies sanity to the claims that men are natural rapists and our culture encourages sexual violence. Written by a libertarian feminist and rape survivor, Rape Culture Hysteria opens with a highly personal appeal to depoliticize rape and treat it instead as a crime. Victims need to heal. Politicizing their pain and rage is a callous political maneuver that harmsRead More →
