Yes only feminazis can argue in that kind of ‘logic’. The societal structure of male disposability says that a male’s death is not to be worried about because: In case he was a criminal he only got what he deserved. It is no one’s consideration to figure out how he got to become a criminal in first place. In case he died in line of duty as police or soldier, then again he died for family, society, country and so on. So we can pay respect to the martyr and move on. It is not bad that a 100 men die, but a woman must not die. It is up to men to wake up to the stupid propaganda. http://guyinism.com/?p=575 my eye immediately focused in on a single-sentence paragraph in the middle: “In Iraq, women serving in the military are more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than … [Read more...] about Killed men is no big deal, raped women is so bad!

Do men see societal structures oppressing them?
There is a nice article here on discussion about structures in society and how feminism is able to exploit discussion around societal structures well to benefit their cause. Why are men unable to look at some of societal structures as being harmful to men or putting too much burden on them? I guess the reason is men are trained to be self-reliant and in protector and provider mindset most of the time. So read about some of the societal expectations about men (some of them true more in West) as given in the article. In the field of gender issues, this means that the only way to combat misandry and the prevailing perception that men are a privileged group that willfully oppresses women, is to describe how cultural and societal structures keep men stuck in their own kind of … [Read more...] about Do men see societal structures oppressing them?
CJI views on rape reflect failure of judiciary
Recent news of chief justice of India Mr Balakrishnan supporting choice of rape victim to marry the accused has shocked several among public. http://news.in.msn.com/national/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3687586 "Due regard must be given to their personal autonomy since in some cases the victim may choose to marry the perpetrator or choose to give birth to a child conceived through forced intercourse," Balakrishnan said. This kind of social engineering through judicial discretion is deplorable. It seems a possible reason for such views is that even Supreme Court is unable to find with any confidence the truth in rape allegations, what given the fact that a woman can always accuse later that she did not consent; or she was promised marriage etc; and that compounded with shoddy … [Read more...] about CJI views on rape reflect failure of judiciary
Husband can’t rape wife, but you can marry woman you raped!
No. I did not make that one up. Read the news below, and figure out for yourselves: http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_husbands-can-t-get-away-with-marital-rape-government_1356512 Should a rape victim be allowed to marry the man who destroyed her self-esteem? “Yes,” feels chief justice of India KG Balakrishnan. “No,” indicates popular wisdom. As the world celebrates International Women’s Day on Monday, the government plans to protect women from all possible tormentors, including their husbands, by introducing “marital rape” as a separate provision under the proposed new law against rape and sexual assault. I could say as in the IDEA advertisement -- “kya idea hai sirji”, except in this case it is hardly funny. If one thinks about the 2 diametrically opposite views expressed … [Read more...] about Husband can’t rape wife, but you can marry woman you raped!
