Men and women in “3:10 to Yuma” — and now
Alone in my house in the year 2008, I slipped a DVD into the player and looked back through time. I was watching the original version of 3:10 to Yuma. I was seeing how men and women and children were 50 years ago. The script is from an Elmore Leonard short story, and the movie... »

Swinging Like Monkeys from the Branches of the Liberty Tree
Recently, in a Chicago suburb, a village trustee was issued a citation for disorderly conduct when she informed two less than discerning parents that the trees of the village were to be respected as elements of nature, not utilized like playground equipment. The citation was issued after the parents mistook verbiage used as that... »
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,... »
Women in Islam: Suffering the Barbary of an Ideology
News spread quickly that anti-Islamofascism activist Dr. Wafa Sultan has gone into hiding, along with her family.

For sometime now men’s rights and father’s rights groups have been creating awareness and engaging in protests campaigns in an effort to derail the common default logic that the best way to reach the male consumer is to... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 3
I previously wrote how I feel anti-sexist advocate Jackson Katz is one of many domestic violence advocates who use hyperbole in their work, which in turn, leads society towards more of a misunderstanding, rather than a greater understanding, of domestic violence and its causes. Mr. Katz postulates that a “masculinity crisis” is responsible... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 2
In my last article, “Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth: Part 1″, I wrote about Jackson Katz, an anti-sexist advocate who’s work focuses on the so called “crisis” in masculinity, and how this crisis leads to violence against women and other men. I wrote that I’m sure Mr. Katz means well,... »
Domestic Violence Prevention – More Hyperbole Than Truth:Part 1
As a writer of male issues, I find myself facing a paradox when I come across individuals that are showing a genuine concern for men’s issues, but after further review, find their ideology behind the work is suspect, and/or their methods to address the problems appear to exaserbate the problem rather than offer... »
Yes, I Am An Extremist
Since I have been indirectly labeled an extremist, I feel this qualifies me to be in the position to reach out to others who may be the same. This is how I felt after reading Jonah Bloom’s article at Glenn Sack’s blog. Jonah is Executive Editor and writer for Advertising Age, a weekly marketing... »
I Want Success… And Exploit Myself
Who is actually responsible for overt female sexualization. I asked myself this question after a week in which adult women were reported to be engaged in what some in society would label “improper” or “lewd” behavior. First, the Sacramento King cheerleaders have brought attention upon themselves after provocative photos of the women surfaced on the... »

Minority Women, Hormone Replacement Therapy & Breast Cancer; Does Health Insurance Improve Health?
MINORITY WOMEN, BREAST CANCER & HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY In 2002, the landmark Women’s Health Initiative Study reported that the long-term use of hormone replacement medications, consisting of two female hormones in pill form, was associated with a 26% increase in the relative risk of breast cancer (among other serious diseases as well, I might add). ... »
