- Marriage Values with David R. Usher / Ladies, Only YOU Can Prevent Cheating - drusher - All: note how feminist activists insist on selling us completely unsupportable old wives tales intended to make feminism appear a valid victim rights movement. There is plenty of proof that women of all ages have children out of wedlock intentionally. Feminists actually organize this activity. Here are a few cites proving Noe is lying. Noe is an experienced activist. She cannot claim she does not know that she is misrepresenting the truth. Single women who are moms by choice Octo-Mom: "I Was Lying To Myself" Teenage mothers see pregnancy as a 'career move' Single, pregnant and panicked Survey of girls: Unprotected sex common among teens Hispanic Family Values?
- Marriage Values with David R. Usher / Ladies, Only YOU Can Prevent Cheating - Factory - Oh God...more "it takes two to tango" crap. Morals, biology, and law are three separate and distinct areas. If the law allows for bad behaviour (or, as in this case, outright ENCOURAGES bad behaviour), people will engage in said bad behaviour. When I hear women telling other women to keep their legs closed if they don't want a baby, with the same hard-hearted lack of compassion shown men, then and ONLY then will I take that crap...men do not enjoy the same rights and freedoms women do...this is a LEGAL construct, not social or biological reality. This imbalance carries through to nearly every single facet of family life...and everyone knows it. It's friggin cliche for crying out loud. The point is, and I'll just right out and say this... WOMEN have screwed up the institution of marriage out of pure, unadulterated selfishness. As a man, I have no desire to compete at home with a "strong independant woman", nor do I want to expose myself to the various and sundry "rights" women have (that ultimately mean I have none...gee, guess it really IS a "zero sum game") to destroy my life on a whim. CERTAINLY not for some feckless individual for whom personal responsibility and loyalty basically means it's all about her. Women are increasingly "pricing themselves out of the market". And I'm really, REALLY sick of men getting the blame for this.
- Marriage Values with David R. Usher / Ladies, Only YOU Can Prevent Cheating - Denise Noe - Women do not "get themselves pregnant." Men get women pregnant. This does not mean women are without responsibility. In the vast majority of cases, sexual intercourse occurs with the woman's consent. There is, however, an exception to the rule that men get women pregnant. Some women make use of sperm banks or at least sperm donations and -- although something from a male is necessary -- this minority of women might indeed be said to "get themselves pregnant." I agree that it is best for children if they are born inside happy and stable marriages.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Please Burn The Flag - mashed - I'm a little curious as to what the Republican party has been doing lately to pander to religious nutters. Also, while the Republican party has a _reputation_ (I'm not sure what they've actually done) for pandering to _christian_ nutters, isn't it the democrats who pander to religious nutters (so long as they aren't christian)?
- Amy Alkon on MND / Please Burn The Flag - mashed - Short warning to those who want to burn flags: as a young Lebanese Australian learned, while it may be lawful to burn a flag, if you trespass on property owned by the Returned Servicemans League, steal their flag then burn it, the courts don't particularly care that you are allowed to burn flags... so long as you are not destroying property that belongs to someone else.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Shrewd Move On Palin's Part - DaPoet - I will never ever vote for a female who intentionally abandons her responsibilities to her husband and children in a selfish, vain and narcissistic attempt at finding self fulfillment by running for political office and blithely allows her children to pay the price.
- Amy Alkon on MND / George Carlin On Novel-Writing - Joe Penny - Carlin says the girly voiced freak Michael Jackson had more talent than Elvis and Sonatra. Like Letterman, he USED to be funny before he/they morphed into self-loathing liberals bent on heaping the woes of the world on white males.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Pat Condell: "Filthy Kaffir Who Will Burn In Hell" - WhatAboutMGM? - Female genital mutilation? Controversy? Welcome to the party, sis!
- Amy Alkon on MND / Sometimes, There's Nothing So Expensive As "Free" - Redrajesh - Nobody has a problem with innovative and one in a million people surgery being expensive. But in America, normal things like flu or small illnesses cost a bomb to treat. Added to it is the fact that a drug cannot be obtained without a prescription makes it mandatory to visit a doctor and pay a huge fees to get the treatment(an average general practitioner doctors fees is about 150 dollars here in NJ and when I go through the insurance co, I pay my co pay of 15 dollars and the insurance co pays him about 65 thereby bringing the total to $80). If instead of $150 or even $80, it were something like $25 or $30, things would be a lot better. If the doctors could remove some overheads like 3 girls in their office each being paid $3000 a month to fill the insurance claims and receptionist etc, they can make a pretty decent living even at a charge of $30 per visit. And since 9 of the top 10 paying jobs in America is in the medical field and general practitioners come in that 9, I find it difficult to muster any sympathy for them. And if it were not mandatory to get a prescription to get a drug, quite a lot of people would save a bomb just by self medication for some simple ailments.
- Dr. Helen Smith / "America isn't hiring precisely because of government policy." - DcFather - Ditto for home sales, car sales, consumer confidence, and a lot more. Problem is, Obama et al are not as clueless as they act. They are trying as hard as they can to destroy America as fast as they can, and doing a pretty good job at it. It's the people who believe in him/them that are truly ignorant.
- Dr. Helen Smith / But "she managed to disarm him and cut him"..... - Greg - Too bad she didn't hit the throat instead of the hands...
- Sex+Metropolis / Americans are Beginning to Notice Political Swing to Left - Greg - Government gets bigger the more it feeds on itself. The trick has been to hide from the general public just how little power we actually have over them. Given the unelected bureaucracy, the desire by those elected to retain their power and prestige, and the need in any organization to reach consensus - bear in mind the adage, the squeaky wheel gets the grease - there is a slide in one direction or another. We're just starting to realize WHICH direction we've been pulled in.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Highland Hound - Virtue - Heh when I see Burbank on the 5 I know I am about an hour from home
- Amy Alkon on MND / The Trouble With Black Muslims - Tim Merritt - By focusing on a dishonest and hateful version of history, they are losing focus on the tremendous and real contributions black Americans have made to every aspect of our lives. Slavery is one aspect of the American experience, but so is the fact that we have prayed together, fought together, worked together and loved together.
- BlogWonks / Coming: By-The-Mile Road Tax? - Squiggy - What's really "funny" is that this will also affect people who drive total electric cars. Even if they are solar powered or pedaled.
- BlogWonks / The Duke 88 Defend Gay Admin Pervert - Squiggy - I'm not sure I understand what the "professors" are saying. Are they implying that this boy wouldn't have been abused if the rest of us didn't treat gays badly? It sure seems so.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Equal Protection, Except If You're Black Or Latino, And Then You Get More - Denis - The real prize for getting "More" as you well know goes to females. Females are ~ 51% of the population. That means the majority of Americans get "More". Black Females get "More" than Black Males. Hispanic Females get "More" than Hispanic Males. White Females get "More" than White Males. Black Females and Hispanic Females and White Females get "More" than White Males. White Males are at the bottom of the food chain.
- Amy Alkon on MND / The Vagina Gang - bernard - amy, thanks for posting, i cross posted too since the article was so important
- NewsWax / Pitchman Billy Mays Dead One Day After Bizarre Airplane Accident - ace - Another "celebrity" who was 50 just died. He had a lot going for him. May Billy Mays rest in peace despite some of the negative things people say.
- Amy Alkon on MND / Must Not Appeal To The Patriarchal Oppressors! - NothingToSeeHere - Don't want to wear lipstick or shave your legs- it's really easy, don't. Women are free to choose whether or not they want to try and look appealing to men, and men are free to find them more attractive or less attractive. While the hairy, smelly, dowdy feminuts are debating classist folderol with some whiny emo boy, other women will be cavorting with men who find them attractive (and getting their ever-lovin' ____s ____'d out). See, everybody wins!
Ned Holstein: How Much is Paternity Fraud Worth?
By Glenn Sacks | Apr 21, 2008
Ned Holstein of Fathers & Families has an interesting post on paternity fraud and the devaluation of the father-child bond. Holstein writes:
“Two mothers are suing an Illinois hospital because their newborn babies were switched at birth. Although the mistake was rectified within hours, Mary Jo Bathon and Kassie Hopkins are each demanding $50,000 for the mistake.
ÂÂ
“It is interesting to note the different levels of importance society attaches to mother-child mix-ups versus father-child mix-ups. Hospitals take elaborate precautions to match the right mother to the right newborn — wristbands immediately after birth, footprints, and more.
ÂÂ
“When it comes to paternity, few steps if any are taken to ensure that babies are matched to the right fathers, even though a simple DNA test, now available for under $30 from RiteAid pharmacies, will do the trick.”
