Why is it that, as soon as the whinging females
demand something the damned Ministers are off
their asses doing something about it.

Guys have been complaining about the consequence
of false rape allegation for decades and nothing
is done about that; and of course there is the
diovorce court and nothing is done about that.

Psychologists have been saying that it is not
suitable (or reforming) for men for fifty years
and I haven't seen the Minister doing a fat lot
about that.

So. Men commit suicide too.

Hooray. About time they started to do the time
that has been comming to them.

They want equality but only when it suits them.

They sure don't want equal prison time; they
don't want equal prison conditions.

What happened to women being equal to men in
every respect - like being big tough girls who
can handle a 200 lbs violent rapist without
having their gun taken off them. Or lift someone
and carry them out of a burning building?

Are we saying that men are tougher than women;
are we saying that when it comes to coping with
tought shit man, the boys are better at handling it?

Surely not; isn't that sacrilage or something?

NOW What I would really like to know is why
aren't these people getting the :Larry Summers
treatment for DARING to suggest that boys are
better at sometyhing than girls.

Aren't we going to see careers ruined; aren't we
going to see some grovelling done; and aren't we
going to see some heartless destruction of the
heretic going on?
