NBC's Placenta Place

The Definition of Manhood

Mention the word feminine; most people understand it instantly. Jessica Alba, Beyoncé, and Scarlett Johansson come to mind. Now, try masculine. Puzzled? Stymied? That’s because the definition of manhood is in constant flux and dilution, as men have allowed misandrists — male and female — to marginalize them. There’s no better example of a male misandrist than VP-elect Joe Biden, worshipper of women and trasher of men, who constantly brags about his unconstitutional, pernicious weapon of male destruction: VAWA.

Being manly is out in America. Instead, we have the metrosexual, the straight man who preens in the bathroom as much or more than his woman. Don’t forget the former hit TV show Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, produced by NBC Universal’s Bravo network, to have gay men teach clueless straight men about style and manner. The trendline is clear: men have been becoming, and are socially rewarded for becoming, more feminine. What’s going on?

This sinking manhood in America is confusing today’s boys about masculinity. As I stated previously, this is happening because men are allowing it to happen. Like the automakers in Detroit, American men are in denial, doing nothing, while they’re being phased out. Never forget that 85% of legislators are male — those anti-male laws are coming from somewhere, and male voters are putting and keeping these misandrist legislators in power!

Divorce, out-of-wedlock births, the preponderance of female teachers, negative images of fathers in sitcoms and commercials, and a legal system that allows, in fact encourages, women to commit maternity faud, paternity fraud, rape fraud, and domestic-violence fraud make growing up and living as a male a truly vexing experience. And, if men think someone will “save” them, they should be ashamed. Grow a pair.

Many women, however, don’t care — or deny their lack of concern — about the fate of their sons. Let me give you two examples. On December 28, 2007, I debated attorney Jennifer Brandt on Your World with Neil Cavuto about the lunacy of marketing “Hello Kitty” products to boys. Then, on February 28, 2008, I debated attorney Mercedes Colwin on Fox & Friends about the feminization of boys in school. Their rebuttals are perfect depictions of mothers who want to keep their sons umbilically attached and nourished with placenta, to prevent them from becoming real men.

Someone needs to explain things to this mother

It seems Veronica Goss' son Walter Ransome had sex with a girl in the hallway of his school.?? School officials found out about it and suspended Walter for 5 days.?? Then they made it ten.?? Goss is OK with that.?? "I know he was wrong, he knows he was wrong.?? That part is resolved," she said.??

So what's the problem??? The girl (who of course is not named) involved in the tryst got no suspension at all.?? None.?? And apparently that's school policy.?? It seems that sexual activity has occurred before??on school property??and the boy was suspended while the girl was allowed to remain in school.

In fact, according to Walter, other students were "touching" in the same place at the same time he and the girl were having sex.?? The boy was suspended and the girl stayed in school.

"But how come the little girl is not wrong??? She participated in a sexual act also," said Goss.

I guess she didn't get the memo.?? You know the one about males are sexual and females aren't; males are corrupt, females are pure; males are perpetrators, females are victims.

Where's she been all these years?

Single men turning to surrogates

Jeff Walker says from as far back as he can remember, he always wanted to be a father.

Jeff Walker, with his two daughters, tried to adopt, but ultimately turned to surogacy to build a family.

"It was always something I knew, from the time I was a child." Just like his 3-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, who says she wants to be a mommy someday, Jeff says, "I knew I wanted to be a daddy."

Walker, a Manhattan music executive, says he and his partner had talked about adopting a baby years ago. But after three emotionally draining, failed attempts at adoption, they decided to turn to surrogacy. They contacted Circle Surrogacy, a Boston agency that specializes in gay clients. Their child was conceived with a donor egg, and then the embryo implanted in the surrogate, or carrier.

After Elizabeth was born, Walker and his partner separated. He then made a critical decision -- to become a dad again, single, and by choice.

"I realized my family, my two-dad family was going to look different than I thought it was going to look," he said. Without a partner, he would face even steeper challenges raising Elizabeth and a sibling alone. Walker says he gave the decision a lot of thought.

"That was the only part that was really controversial, because I do think there are a lot of challenges that single parents face, but at the same time I felt I was capable of handling those challenges," he said.

His second daughter, Alexandra, was born two years ago to the same surrogate, implanted with an egg from a different donor.

Walker, 45, is one of a growing number of single men -- both gay and straight -- who are opting to become fathers alone, with the help of gestational surrogacy.

V-Day is Valentine’s Day

Student Guide here (.pdf file). Excerpt:

'So, what’s the best tactic for dealing with V-Day? What can students do to counteract the damaging effects The Vagina Monologues has on young people and campus life? The Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute is a voice for those who want to stand up for decency. CBLPI created V-Day Unveiled to support students who are willing to take a stand against The Vagina Monologues and the V-Day College Initiative by:

Refusing to replace “Valentine’s Day” with “Vagina Day”

Renouncing the offensive and degrading image of women and men

presented in The Vagina Monologues and V-Day activities

Rejecting the false claim that these tasteless exhibitions will put an end to violence against women and girls.'

The forgotten father figure

Opinion piece here. Excerpt:

'If we truly want to do something about gang violence and youth violence, it is time to reverse the crazy incentives that have thrown more and more fathers out of kids’ lives.

Here is what needs to be done, in my opinion.

1.Pass Equal Shared Parenting legislation for fit parents and do it this legislative year.

2. Reform the Massachusetts Family and Probate Courts and make it harder for a father to be relegated to a visitor. Fathers are not visitors, they are parents. Kids need their dads too.

3. Reform Title IV (d) of the Federal Social Security Act and remove the perverse incentives that throw dads out of the house.

4. Reform the Violence Against Women’s Act (VAWA) and make it gender neutral. Enforce due process laws. Make false accusations a crime.

Losing jobs in unequal numbers

1,069,000 fewer men are working than a year ago.

12,000 more women are working.

Excerpt:

Men are losing jobs at far greater rates than women as the industries they dominate, such as manufacturing, construction, and investment services, are hardest hit by the downturn. Some 1.1 million fewer men are working in the United States than there were a year ago, according to the Labor Department. By contrast, 12,000 more women are working.

This gender gap is the product of both the nature of the current recession and the long-term shift in the US economy from making goods, traditionally the province of men, to providing services, in which women play much larger roles, economists said. For example, men account for 70 percent of workers in manufacturing, which shed more than 500,000 jobs over the past year. Healthcare, in which nearly 80 percent of the workers are women, added more than 400,000 jobs.

Cancer Diagnosis Rates - WOW

About 20 women per hours in the U.S. are diagnosed with breast cancer. We have all heard of Breast Cancer Awareness month, Race for the Cure, and all those pink ribbons.

But did you know 25 men per hour are diagnosed with prostate cancer. Do you know when Prostate Cancer Awareness month is? Where is the Race for the Cure, and where are all the blue ribbons?

Men just don't matter!

Men die in war - you don't hear about them but rather the women and children that are the VICTIMS!!

VICTIMS? If anyone is a victim of war it is the people who are killed (mostly men).
when was the last time you heard N.O.W complain that not enough women were being killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. and you won't. Period!!!

Prostate cancer versus breast cancer

The United States invests approximately
$16,700 for each life lost to prostate cancer
$21,800 for each life lost to breast cancer
$160,000 for each life lost to AIDS.

Breast cancer for women and prostate cancer for men are quite similar afflictions. Consider these projections from the American Cancer Society:

	Breast cancer (females)	Prostate cancer (males)
New cases (2004)	215,990	230,110
Deaths (2004)	40,580	29,900

Yet in the media and our culture, prostate cancer and breast cancer are far from similar. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month, and the disease is receiving significant national attention, just as it does every year. Many celebrities have taken up the cause of raising money to fight breast cancer. The Arch in St. Louis is lit pink this month, the first-ever case of supporting for a “cause” by decorating the Arch. This precedent concerns the National Park Service, but they were overruled.

In stark contrast to the “popular” cause of fighting breast cancer is the short shrift given prostate cancer. I’m aware of no groundswell of support from Hollywood to raise awareness about this cancer. I can’t remember the last time I heard about a musician giving a benefit concert to raise money to fight it. And by the way, were you aware that September is National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month? Something tells me you weren’t.

Are Feminists Rapists??

They are if the definition of rape is:
The coercion of another person into having sex

See 3 minute video

Prostate Cancer

Since Prostate cancer kills more men each year than Breast cancer kills women, and receives a fraction of the funding that breast cancer does, where is the outrage?

Where are the calls to even up the disparity in funding?

Where are the blue ribbons, and races for the cure, and such?

You just don’t see them.

Oh, yeah. Those aren't women, children or pets dying.

They’re just Men.

Boys competing on Girls' teams

Article here. Excerpt:

'Everyone has heard the argument that females should be allowed to play on male sports teams. Whether it is in youth leagues, high school or college, females have pushed the envelope and have played on all male football and wrestling teams. They have also consistently played on predominantly male Little League and youth soccer teams.

What is rarely talked about — and usually welcomes a rash of criticism — is male athletes participating on female teams. Outside of family members and teammates, there is little to no support for the male athletes.
...
“It’s really a double-edged sword,” said Taconic Hills volleyball coach Alan Eggleston. “The girls that I coached liked beating the boys but it was very hard for me to justify to them why the boys could play on a girls team.”'

Great comment I want to share that follows:

Submitted by Broadsword on Sun, 2008-11-30 21:59.

It always amazes me, that women/feminists say girls and women should be able to play on male sports teams, which would mean they are the same strength and would mean women receiving forceful blows from men in any contact sports.

But then make women out to be feeble victims when a woman gets a slap from her boyfriend.

I'm sick of their contradictions.

I don't want to hear another word about violence against women or rape. If women can play sports against men, and serve in jobs that require physical strength like the police or military, then you are an equal and there can be no victim. You get a slap, punch, kick, etc, then deal with it bitch, just like men do.
