The chilling issue about the The Human Fertilisation and Embryolgy Bill going through Parliament is that this is legalised evidence of the war being lead against fathers.
It is bad enough that men are denied access to their children when a divorce/separation occurs and that the secretive Masonic-like Family Courts and CAFCASS act without legitimacy and with impunity, but this enshrines the decline of fatherhood in law.
It will be a victory for Marxist Feminists, who want to change society by making it as anti-man as possible. It won't end here, the ideological war against fathers and men is just raised another notch.
As Iain Duncan-Smith MP said so powerfully in the Mail on Sunday (link)
"Another nail will have been hammered into the coffin of the traditional family. And another blow will have been struck against fatherhood.
This move could not have come at a worse time. Just as we are beginning to appreciate the vital role fathers play in the successful upbringing of children, Labour Ministers are sending out the utterly wrong signal that fathers don't matter. "
For another great article by Melanie Phillips (link) and Families Needs Fathers, Chair,John Baker, said
“We believe this proposal sends out an extremely worrying message that makes fathers redundant in the upbringing of children. In an environment where significant societal problems are caused by the lack of a father in a child’s life, the Government should be making every attempt to consolidate a father’s position, rather than weaken it.”
Unfortunately many of these Marxist-Feminists have cushy jobs in charities like Oxfam. Councillor Antonia Bance, who Oxfam employs for its campaign work on poverty and social exclusion issues in the UK expresses extreme anti-male views. Here's an excerpt from Oxfam's deputy director: "Making judges enforce child contact is similar: it feeds a view that all women are out to keep their children from seeing their fathers, which just isn’t the case. Judges can and do enforce contact of children with their fathers, even at times when there is evidence of domestic violence and when doing so makes the children distraught. Equally, equal parenting laws appearing in a manifesto about men’s rights shows it exactly for what it is: a demand that is about the father, and the father’s rights, and not wanting the woman to have something they don’t, rather than about the children’s needs."

okay, there has being a lot of talk about injustice against men by women and the governement and all those men helping them. the question is what are you doing about it. Women usually take their cases to the public, demonstrate, go to court, make sure the government hear them out, get sympathetic ears to drive their course, are not ashamed of what the believe ;but i am yet to see such high level peace, well calculated organization among the male folks. the ladies first managed to get the laws in their favour and against men. What you might try doing is to get the law protecting you as men, fathers and dont be ashamed of coming out in the open and fighting for what you believe; if you cant, then dont waste your time and let the status quo be.
