Could there be a biologically based reason men may be especially attracted to other men’s wives?
One of my favorite Golden Oldies is “Midnight Confession.” The song’s narrator is a man passionately in love with a woman who is out of his reach: “a little gold ring you were on your hand makes me understand/There’s another before me, you’ll never be mine.”
A more recent popular song is “Mrs. Steven Rudy.” The [...]

On Becoming Fearless by Arianna Huffington, reviewed by Denise Noe
Denise Noe’s note: The book reviewed here is oriented primarily toward girls and women so some readers are likely to criticize me for putting this review on Men’s News Daily. However, I do not believe that it is irrelevant because men have wives, girlfriends, mothers, sisters, daughters, and other female relatives as well as female [...]

Why the cougar phenomenon is more jarring than older man-younger woman romances
There has been quite a bit of publicity recently about “cougars,” older women in romances, sexual liaison, and/or marriages with much younger men. Some people wonder why this should be more jarring that its more common and acceptable reverse of older men in similar relationships with much younger women.
In fact, there are reasons that people [...]

William Hetherington: Rapist or scapegoat?
As some of my readers already know, I’ve put up three previous blogs about the case of William Hetherington, a Michigan man who has served more than 20 years in prison because he was convicted – on questionable evidence – of raping his wife while they were separated. I began researching the case after being [...]

A Virtuous Woman as seen in Proverbs 31
Much of the last chapter of Proverbs is dedicated to describing the characteristics of “a virtuous woman.” Verse 10 asks, “Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.”
It is interesting to examine the qualities that such a woman is said to possess as well as the affects she is said [...]

Manipulating - This is What Feminism Looks Like
A new PR campaign to promote feminism reminds me of my children; shove everything under the bed where mom or dad can’t see it, then presto, the room appears clean and tidy.
This same tactic is being used for a promotional video put out by the Feminist Majority. In the video, numerous well-known Hollywood actors, male [...]

Message to Avon Sales Reps: Why Marketing Feminist Ideology is a Bad Strategy
In the 1930s, the German National-Socialists (NS) promoted laws that were officially supposed to protect women from even coming into social contact with ideologically undesirable males while promoting a government-approved mating regimen.
In 2008, Avon Corporation thinks it can market cosmetics by promoting its efforts to pass laws to protect women from even coming into social [...]
