AMFORTAS PODCASTS AND VIDEOS TO SHARE #3

See last two Saturday for previous instalments. in the series of podcasts and videos from Amfortas and colleagues.

Deliberately Lying about about Domestic Violence in Australia. Pt.1.

The ‘women’s Safety Survey’ was "uncorroborated, biased and manipulated" ‘Advocacy research’ orchestrated by the Office for the Status of Women and passed off as Bureau of Statistics report. It caused an enormous row, says MRA Amfortas. Manipulated definitions and hysterical claims copied from America made innocuous behaviour criminal. DV sells commercial products to women and expropriates public funds for the fastest growing ‘Industry in Australia.

Deliberately Lying about Domestic Violence in Australia. Pt.2.

Three other sources of ‘official’ data which are routinely manipulated and presented to support DV lies are analysed by Amfortas and compared to Independent University research which completely contradicts the ‘official message’." It would be generous to think that this manipulation and bias was just the result of incompetence. But as we can see there is something far darker behind it. It is corruption. It is deliberate."

Deliberately Lying about DV in Australia. Pt.3. The Truth is out there – Somewhere.

Christian J narrates how the 2006 Australian Bureau of Statistics Personal Safety Survey completely contradicted the Government’s 1996 survey. He also points to the attempts by feminist bureaucrats to manipulate by having ONLY female interviewers to bias the results. Results show women twice as safe as men. The Government has thrown a blanket of silence over it. Feminists maintain an undemocratic stranglehold, expropriating public monies for their anti-male ‘Industry’.

The Degradation of Women – by feminism

"In textbook leftist style, feminist supporters of the play ’Vagina Monologues’ cloak their attack on normal family values and morality under the guise of promoting awareness about violence against women. One does not have to be a prude to see a weak excuse for pornography and an anti-male agenda. But to disguise it as ‘awareness of abuse’, is an abuse of women’s minds and sensibilities." Amfortas lauds Bridget Blanton for her stand and protests and against the glorification of lesbian rape of young girls.

The Wages of Spin

Amfortas narrates the analysis of Paul Elam of the Pay Gap Myth, showing the mendacious and partial statistics promoted by politicians to anger women for political advantage. Women’s choices are intelligent and nurturing while men not only work longer hours but take the dangerous jobs that pay more. Dr Warren Farrell’s early rationales are sustained.

GENDER BIAS AGAINST MALES HIGHER THAN BIAS AGAINST FEMALES, IN SOME JOBS

By Megan Jones

Back in March, the website accountingweb.com reported on a UK study that found male job applicants in the fields of accounting and computer analysis were experienced greater bias than female applicants. The study tested out over 400 jobs, sending two fake applications, one from someone named Emma and the other from a job candidate named Phillip.

The applications – which listed the same age and level of experience and qualifications – were sent to employers and companies seeking to hire accountants, computer analysts, engineers and secretaries. Accountingweb.com, via The Guardian, reports that “men were up to four times as likely as women to suffer bias when seeking jobs in accountancy and computer programming. Men were also four times less likely than women to be hired for secretary positions, while women were “half as likely” to get the engineering jobs, according to accountingweb.com.  

In response to the study’s findings, some analysts believe that employers who hired women are practicing what is called “stealth affirmative action,” though there is no law that requires employers to modify their hiring practices according to affirmative action in the

UK

. Others have responded by saying that while men should not be discriminated against, women still bear the brunt of the majority of workplace discrimination.

In either case, gender discrimination is unfair. The news article also referenced a study from Rutgers University graduate students and published in the Psychology of Women Quarterly, which found that men who acted ambitious and like they really wanted to succeed in their careers were viewed as favorable candidates, while women who acted in the same way were considered less than desirable in terms of social skills and likability. This finding led those in the study to feel less passionate about hiring women who acted ambitious.

It is unclear exactly why the employers in the first study favored women over men in three out of four industries. And while computer science and accounting are still traditionally male-dominated fields, especially in upper management, a stealth affirmative action initiative can’t be a conclusive answer, as it does not apply to the field of engineering, at least according to the study.

ARTIFICIAL SPERM - MEN ARE NOW THE SECOND SEX

When Simone De Beauvoir wrote in 1953 that women were the Second Sex, she and her feminist acolytes have been waiting for the day when the roles would be reversed and that men were the Second Sex. That day has now come.

It is not just because of the constant belittling of men in British society, the mistreatment and ignorance perpetrated against them by the state (positive action, discrimination in the allocation of services), the belittling of fathers and the anti-father laws and courts, the inability to provide schooling that meets the needs of boys, the general propaganda smokescreen of the gender pay gap, glass ceilings etc and the downright untruths; no, something more fundamental has happened - it is the fact that British scientists in Newcastle have produced artificial sperm.

Despite the war waged on men, at least we were needed biologically but not anymore.

Forget all the nonsense about it being able a breakthrough to help infertile couples, within a decade, we will not be needed at all.

The scientist,  Karim Nayernia, involved will be hailed by anyone anti-male as a hero, in fact to them, he probably already is.

HARMAN CAUGHT OUT AGAIN ABOUT WHO IS LOSING OUT IN THE RECESSION

A few days after Harriet Harman, the UK's Minister for Women, Leader of the House of Commons and Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, received a letter from the UK's statistics watchdog about peddling untruths about the gender pay gap, the Government's own Equalities and Human Rights Commission proves her wrong about the recession.

Ms Harman had previously proclaimed this year that women were the biggest sufferers in the recession only to be proved wrong by the Office of National Statistics.

This time, the Equalities Commissioned issued a report on the recession showing that male unemployment in the Uk had increased by 2.4% (to 8.1%) and female unemployment by 1.4% (to 6.4%).

On four key issues now, Harman has been caught peddling distortions on jobs, depression, domestic violence and the gender pay gap. On each occasion the intention is to state that the plight of women is worse than the plight of men and to allow her to pursue her pro-female anti-male agenda.

Truly shameful.

HIDDEN TABOO OF MALE VICTIMS OF FORCED MARRIAGE REVEALED

By Adrian Ashby and The Editor

In new guidance produced by the UK Department of Children Schools and Families on the prevalence of forced marriage within Britain's Asian community has revealed that 20% of victims are male.

The figures (see page 26 of the guidance) show that during 2008 there were 1,325 known cases out of 7,750.

In many ways, this is a similar position to the one that male victims of domestic violence find themselves in. It is under-reported and nearly all of the information provided is aimed at female victims.The stereotype is that only females can be victims and men cannot be.

 Though the Forced Marriage Unit and the excellent Karma Nirvana charity help men, it is clear from the figures that nothing much is being done on the ground in local councils to help. 

This can be seen by the sample of four council's involved in the research which shows that a mere 4% of victims they report are male but the Forced Marriage Unit reported 14% and Karma Nirvana reported 43% (the guidance has produced an estimate of 20% taking into account these statistics). It shows that nationally based support systems show a higher prevalence than those on the ground, which means local council's once again are ignoring male victims in their community and are in breach of the Gender Equality Duty.

Almost a re- run of the process by which Erin Pizzey’s pioneering work setting up refuges  was subverted by an ideology which refuses to recognise the need for support for a substantial number of men. Once again a pioneering woman, Jasvindher Sanghera of Karma Nirvana, responding to real human problems, shows up the prejudice of those who should be supporting people in need in their communities.

Thee one difference though is that whereas in the case of male victims of domestic violence, the perpetrators are nearly always female, in forced marriages, because of the patriarchal nature of Asian communities, it is likely that the men being forced into marriage are being forced by other men (male family members) within their community.

 

So the usual stereotype that only women can be victims has been proved here, as in the case of domestic violence, to be wrong. When will this Government stop putting domestic violence and now forced marriages under the remit of Stopping Violence against Women and Children and instead place it under the remit of Stopping Violence Against Everyone.

 

AMFORTAS PODCASTS AND VIDEOS TO SHARE #2

See last Saturday's post - this is second in a series of podcasts from Amfortas.

Sacred Cows in the China Shop. Pt. 1.

A female economist takes on a leading Feminist in a debate. Women’s Studies Depts’ have no legitimacy and should be closed. They are academically bogus and "Ideologically biased". A men’s Studies Dept could be better trusted to seek truth and answers to urgent social questions. Women dominate Universities and are driven by bias.

Sacred Cows in the China Shop. Pt.2.

A ‘Life studies dept’ would serve society better than a ‘woman’s studies Dept. "50 million unborn babies have died for women’s rights". Enough is enough. University cobbled Feminists ‘cherry pick’ studies and ignore contrary evidence to present false ideas to the public, corrupting their intellectual obligation and actively creating and manipulating a negative and destructive image about men.

Feminism is NOT good for Women. Pt.1.

Post WW2 Feminism adopted Marxist ‘conflict’ model, pitting a new ‘Class’ of oppressed women against an imaginary exploitative ‘patriarchy, according to Female Economist Jennifer Morse. Christian J narrates how women adopted it to assuage and project their guilt and resentment after so many male deaths in wars to defend them. Women were in work since WW1 and had parity in University education before WW2, long before the Feminist revolution of the 70s.

4b. Feminism is NOT good for Women. Pt.2.

Christian J continues to show how the destruction of marriage and Family is against women’s best interests and is leading to profound unhappiness. Women participate in the public sphere by chemically neutering themselves during the peak child-bearing years. "The infertile career woman - and her close cousin, the single mother -is not exactly by choice, but more by default. These women are extremely disappointed."
