TOM MARTIN CAMPAIGN UPDATE - PLEASE DONATE

Without a need for any preamble, here is the latest from Tom Martin on his court case aginst the London School of Economics

Press release: Friday, November 4^th, 2011:

 Tom Martin, the man suing the London School of Economics (LSE) for sex discrimination in one of its gender studies Masters degrees, appears in a new video asking LSE students if they think discrimination against men in a curriculum is justifiable, as the university's defence team have argued.

 Some students get aggressive, telling Tom that discrimination against men in a curriculum is indeed justifiable, as '… men don't face any discrimination'. Those who claim to have read gender studies or feminist literature appear to be the most ignorant, aggressive and oppressive on gender politics – opposing men's issues debates outright. Tom says “Elite students should be aware, that to espouse such bias and man-hatred is completely wrong - but a lot of the students I spoke to don't seem to have an internal alarm bell. They just blurt it out. We have all learnt to recognize and reject misogyny, now its time the educational establishment accept, and teach, that misandry is completely unacceptable too.”

 The case still awaits an initial trial date, and Tom asks all those interested in supporting equality for men in education to donate to the fighting fund at http://sexismbusters.org/ - 49 men and women from six countries have done so, the total currently standing at £1375, with a further £900 needed for further vital legal advise fees in preparation for the initial court hearing.

 Tom also asks people to like, follow or subscribe on youtube, twitter and facebook - and do anything else they can to keep spreading the word.

The video is quite simply brilliant, so polite, eloquent, well presented and to the point. You couldn't have scripted it any better using actresses instead of feminists.A big improvement on his Guardian piece and I love it how he goes to town on the sources.

I think Tom has found his best medium by far, he should be on tv.

OMG, Tom is an absolute star! I can't believe how bloody fantastic that video was - full of instant slam-dunk put-downs and push-backs. He really executed that to absolute perfection and I just hope this guy does more of this kind of stuff; he could make a real name for himself. I think the best thing is the fact that he's going head-to-head with young feminists (on their territory in a civil manner)and yet totally trouncing them and their skewed, unfounded beliefs - the look on their faces when faced with the statistical truth was an absolute picture. The thing is, and here lies the problem, Tom needs to get himself on TV where an audience of hundreds of thousands would watch rather than the rather limited youtube numbers. This guy should get a deal with Channel 4 to do an hour long documentary. It would be fresh, new, interesting, controversial, topical but most of all....about bloody time men were represented by someone with such passion!

Fantastic video. Please support Tom. The notion that discrimination against men is justified needs exposing. I think many men simply want equity and will be surprised at the venomous nature of "Gender studies".
