Feminist Comment of the Week - 25th December 2010

Happy Christmas to all my readers. Christmas is a time for cheer and goodwill, and I hope you all have a great day.

But, Christmas is like any other day, in that you must remember who your enemies are - because systematic abuse doesn't take a vacation.

Catherine Comins says:

To use the word [rape] carefully would be to be careful for the sake of the violator, and the survivors don't care a hoot about him ... [falsely accused men] have a lot of pain, but it is not a pain that I would necessarily have spared them.

If he hasn't actually committed rape, then how is he a 'violator'? Perhaps he made an unfriendly comment? I'm guessing that 'violation' shall refer to whatever feminists want it to in order to justify the systematic abuse of men. Right here we have not only an admission but an endorsement that women falsely accuse men of rape. This is feminism unmasked.

Feminist Fascism in India

According to Uma Challa at A Voice For Men,

"Whoever, intending to insult the modesty of any woman, utters any word, makes any sound or gesture, or exhibits any object, intending that such word or sound shall be heard, or that such gesture or object shall be seen by such woman, or intrudes upon the privacy of such woman, shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to one year, or with fine, or with both", reads Section 509 of the Indian Penal Code.

Section 354 of the Indian Penal Code prescribes a maximum sentence of two years in prison to a person convicted for outraging the modesty of a woman.
The Supreme Court of India has, on various occasions, elaborated on what modesty of a woman means. According to the apex court,

• Modesty is a virtue which is inherent to a female owing to her sex;
• Modesty is an attribute associated with female human beings as a class;
• A woman, young or old, intelligent or imbecile, awake or sleeping, possesses modesty, which is capable of being outraged;
• Modesty of a woman is outraged when the act of the offender is such that it is shocking and can be perceived as an affront to feminine decency and dignity. Example: slapping a woman on her butt, disrobing her, asking her for sexual favour etc.;
• Mere knowledge that the modesty of a woman is likely to be outraged is sufficient to constitute the offence without any deliberate intention of outraging her modesty.
• Section 354 will apply to all sexual acts committed or intended against a woman that stop short of penetration. (Note: The latest Criminal Laws Amendment Bill 2010 proposes to include ALL sexual acts as rape);
• Lack of protest by a woman cannot be an alibi for the “offender” who has “outraged her modesty”.

It appears that women have established arbitrary rule over men in India. All feminist policy in the Western world tends in this direction.

Feminist Comment of the Week - 17th December 2010

Jessica Valenti says:

. . . we should look to [Swedish rape laws] as a potential model for our own legislation.

In fact, some activists and legal experts in Sweden want to change the law there so that the burden of proof is on the accused; the alleged rapist would have to show that he got consent, instead of the victim having to prove that she didn't give it.

Feminist Fascism in Sweden

From Swedish Dad at The Anti-Feminist:

Sweden prides itself with being “the most equal” country in the world, but it´s all a big scam. Over 5000 men , while only 294 women are serving jailtime( KVV 2009). The Swedish government are jailing men for violence or sex crimes against women and children without any proof at all. One member of the supreme court has stated publicly that “If we can keep the number of innocent that are convicted under 500 a year, we should be happy”. This would mean that over a 1000 men (one fifth) of all imprisoned men are innocently locked up at the moment. In the international statistics of convicted for rape, Sweden is number two, after Lesotho in Africa. Still the feminist state is not content. So now they are proposing a law that would outlaw sex without a written contract. No I am not joking. I wish I was, believe me.

At the same time the custody fights have doubled in the last ten years. Over 7000 children a year are now being forced to experience their parents tearing each other to shreds in the family courts and the fathers are almost always destined to loose. At the same time the authorities totally denies any illegal discrimination. Even though several Swedish district courts (ex Lund, and Jönköping) have been found giving single custody to the mothers in 100 % of all custody fights, they still totally deny any illegal discrimination.

You just have to compare how many complaints that have been made, with the number of times anyone have been convicted. The authority in Sweden that handles this is DO (diskrimineringsombudsmannen).

Many of the men ending up in jail are fathers that tried to stand up for their rights to see their children after a divorce.

Over 300 000 Swedish children now see their father 2 days every two weeks or less. If they are lucky enough to see him at all. People that are trying to protest and speak up about this gross injustice are being harassed and persecuted. Very few people dare anymore.

This is the truth about the “Equal” state of Sweden. But just parts of it. The “victims” lawyer Claes Borgström is a political puppet. He got the former prime minister candidate Mona Sahlin freed from charges of fraud in the 90´s, and after that he became in charge of “JÄMO” former “bureau of equality”.

But when the Swedish government talk about equality they mean feminism. In Sweden these two words are now one and the same. How corrupt Claes Borgström really is was revealed by Swedish journalist Hannes Råstam last year when he made a documentary i two parts about Thomas Quick. Swedens first real “serial killer”. Convicted of 8 murders. It turned out though that he never committed a single one of them. He was just a mentally ill man high on drugs, that happily confessed to everything as long as they kept feeding him his drugs.

His lawyer was Claes Borgström. [Moderator: this comment has been edited] Any sane democracy would make that conclusion after what he have done. But Sweden is no longer a sane democracy. It is a feminist banana republic with a judicial system that makes even the Iranian look pretty ok.

Who am I? A swedish dad that have been denied my human right to see my daughter for 5 years this christmas, without any justification at all. She will be 6 years old the 17 of december. Just another one of the thousands of swedish children that are beeing violently torn from their fathers each year. You really want to know about swedish justice? Make sure you can handle the smell.

A Notable Admission

Canadian feminist Barbara Kay has made a notable admission in her latest piece.

First, to answer your questions about feminists: They not only expect, but they have been responsible for getting many rights for women. Instead of giving you a list, I will simply say that the overwhelming right that women have in the West is the right to control over their sexual lives without being judged. Women demand – and get – the right to have as many love affairs as men, the right to not have children if they don’t want them, the right not to be raped by their husbands, the right to initiate and get a divorce for any reason at all, the right to have custody of their children (except in very unusual cases), and the right to be protected from sexual harassment in school and work. It is a serious offense for a man to be accused of sexual harassment of a women, even if only in words or jokes or anything at all that the woman considers an insult. I would say that women have more rights than men here, and that is all the result of feminism.

Let me highlight the key points here:

the right to initiate and get a divorce for any reason at all

the right to have custody of their children (except in very unusual cases)

It is a serious offense for a man to be accused of sexual harassment of a women

even if only in words or jokes or anything at all that the woman considers an insult.

Then she drops the bombshell:

I would say that women have more rights than men here, and that is all the result of feminism.

Congratulations, Ms. Kay! MRAs have only been saying that for, ooh, a couple of decades now.

So, Ms. Kay - since you have found enlightenment ...

... since you believe in equality between men and women ...

... and you believe in equal rights and all that good stuff ...

... and you fully accept that women have more rights than men ...

... and blame feminism entirely for this outcome ...

... Ms. Kay ... just between us MRAs, what are we going to do about this?
