There is definitly a bias now to female rights and female issues at the expense of mens.There is even talk of a new law discriminating against white males in favour of women or ethnic people in job selection.Where are all these crazy ideas coming from? Now you can soon be accused of harrassment if you call someone "love",but I bet that will only apply to men.It is time that men started to stand up and fight back before we are second class citizens to afraid to speak in case we are accused of something.

Smithroxy

There have not been conclusive studies in the event of taking Avodart [Dutasteride] in the presence of hepatic failure or renal failure. This drug is highly metabolized in the liver and advisable to be avoided in hepatic failure.http://www.generics.ws/Generic_Avodart_Dutasteride_0.5_mg-p-116.html

Is'nt it about time that we men stopped complaining about women? Why don't we just allow the women to take responsibility for everything and allow us to opt out of employment on a suitable pension and go fishing, bushwalking, golfing or whatever. History has shown that women want to dominate us. Domination is a natural thing by our species. The way things exist at the moment, we are justified in saying our respect for women is enforced by the law. Isnt that saying, "I am not free to respect you, but I will pretend that I do. Maybe women should adopt the philosophy of 'let sleeping dogs lie' rather than continually trying to get out attention. Why should men be forced to accept women? We very rarely accept ourselves.

Why can Housing associations offer a female only service to their residents, and yet do not offer the same service to male residents requesting a male only service?

I think that the discrimination should not exist, is a rather controversial topic.

Peter Gauci

My name is Peter Gauci and I have suffered discrimination.

I refused to date a woman who had been stalking me, and who I had twice complained about. She explicitly threatened me in writing (in an email) for refusing to date her and when I still refused, she lodged a malicious sexual harassment complaint against me.

Two female staff immediately instructed me to apologise, but refused to tell me what exactly I had been accused of. Despite showing them a history of all of this woman's emails and the two previous complaints I'd made about her, and despite my being gay, they summarily decided that because I had a Y chromosome I had to be guilty.

My employer also found me guilty, purely on the basis of a non-existent confession. Their official report refers to my confessing in a particular document in which I very clearly do not. My stalker on the other hand, confessed in writing that she had made it all up as soon as they told her I was gay. This was explicitly ignored by the investigator on the grounds "that it didn't exist at the point when she was hired".

Despite submitting a three page list of female friends only too happy to speak on my behalf against the allegations and despite my having previously supported two female staff in cases of real harassment/discrimination against them and despite having no contact with me other than a few brief telephone conversations, the investigator and my employer characterised me as a socially awkward misogynist.

The courts refused to even consider that I had been discriminated against in the way the investigation was conducted.

My stalker went on to fake a series of death and rape threat emails which she claimed I sent her and successfully got an Apprehended Violence Order against me. She claimed (rather absurdly) that she printed these emails and immediately deleted them.

She took the same claim to the police, who eventually traced the origin of these back to her own computer, and got her to confess that she made them up.

Despite her being on probation at that time - for attempting to strangle her ex-boyfriend - and despite them having an open and shut case of perjury against her in three courts over these emails, they did nothing.

And it eventually surfaced that she had made these kinds of malicious complaints against others before - including against a police officer.

To add insult to injury, the chief perpetrator of these injustices, Professor Margaret Gardner who was in charge of the farcical investigation, went on to be awarded an Officer of the Order of Australia for her contributions to tertiary education and industrial relations.

She has been the subject of repeated complaints to corruption commissions and is a notorious bully in academia.

This is the world we live in.

I think I have been sexually discriminated against. I work as a personal trainer in a local government establishment.I am one of two (were) holding a 37 hour contract. There was another woman holding a lesser contract who had took V-time down to something in the mid-twentys.

Her sickness is appalling. In the four years I have worked there she has maybe got just over 18 months of working in the gym. During this time I have been delivering ALL the fitness classes and inductions and general running of the gym.

Gets Good now! The council due to massive cuts re-evaluated the service. As a result we all had to apply for our own jobs. However.. Her job wasn't there- the 32 hour one she had started on (she was still on v-time at this point), so they let her apply for a 37 hour post.

The jobs went to a performance matrix, based against length of service, sickness, skills etc. This was based over tow years of service.

One of those years she hadn't been at work at all. And upon returning went straight off with a "pregancy related illness".

Apparently she had no sickness, becuase her maternity couldn't be counted and her sickness was pregnancy related. Which is fair enough.

So I argued that if she was only having year taken into account then should that not be the case for us all... Apparently not, just kept getting back, she is protected..

Sadly for myself I had mumps and appendicitis in that year that was not counted for her. They wouldn't listen, just looked at me like I was a sexist pig.

I am not looking at losing 40 hours per month off my contract. She is planning to V-Time down to mid twentys again. She has no plans to teach the classes becuase she is physically incapable.

To rub salt into the wounds apparently I scored Highest on skills & abilities..

She is now hobbling around the Gym with hyper kyphosis and a fragile hip and lower back with no intention of doing anything. Awesome.

Just for the record I have my own family to support and I am a succesful Personal Trainer.

I will not leave a stone unturned to right this injustice. If women want equal rights then have equal rights. But you can't fucking have it all your own way you emotional messes!!!!!!

I normally prefer reading news paper every day, but one fine day while checking my e-mails, one of my friends ping me your article. I wasn’t very keen in reading thinking that it would be a trash, but later after reading it I realized that I was wrong and your article was just out of the world. I should thank my friends now!!!
