GG I believe I may have the answer to your question

Remember the Colleen Stan kidnapping? Her abductor turned her into a sex slave for 7 years. Why, Franklin, do you avoid the slave industry? After all, it's an international problem. Is that not violent enough for you, or do you just have a hankering to convince people that women are the root of all evil.

GG you ask why Franklin would ignor things like the Stan kidnapping? You might also ask, why he would ignore the pleas of a GROWN woman (Holly Collins) as well. Or why he would ignore Fatima Loeliger's statement that she is NOW happy, when she lived with her father and his wife, she was extremely UNHAPPY? Or how about the hundreds and thousands of protective moms who allege DV and abuse of themselves and the children. Why would he ignore these cries and pleas?

Petunia thinks (OPINION OF PETUNIA) Franklin wants to marginalize women and place us back into the 1940's mentality. Back to when women were seen and not heard. Women have no rights. Just look at any of the commenter on his site and you will find an original signatory to the Father's Manifesto. You know that mysogynistic little piece whereby MEN want women to stay home, never be able to vote, never be able to speak their minds. Yeah that's right - THEY DON'T THINK WE HAVE MINDS.

So there you have it GG. "Those" men will never admit that a woman can actually digest a subject, think about it and form an opinion and even be able to articulate that opinion. We are second class. This IS the issue.

I understand that he should be held accountable for his actions. However, this is highly suspicious and where there is smoke there is usually fire.

I have had several interactions with police. The police seem to assume mother custody, and male dv batterers. I don't trust the police, and carry a snout in my glove box for emergencies. Maybe I should carry donuts too.

I have friends who are police officers. But I don't even trust them.

Your best friend is a camera.

He carries a SNOUT?!?!?!?!?!?! And we wonder WHY he had issues with custody?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I am also sure his "police friends" would love to hear this one.

Straight from the horse's mouth - things that make you go hmmm or should a man with diabetes be consuming alcohol?

In perusing THAT foul website I was directed to this link:

Lawsuit claims collusion by cops and private eyes

FEDERAL COURT — A La Jolla man is suing the city of San Diego, claiming police officers colluded with private investigators and falsely stopped him on suspicion of drunken driving in 2007 so his wife could use the arrest against him in a child-custody battle.
The 34-page complaint, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in San Diego, includes allegations of false arrest, negligence, battery, excessive force and conspiracy.
John F. Steel IV, a 50-year-old Type 1 diabetic, also alleges that a police officer denied him urgent medical care when his diabetes flared up during the arrest.

Okay the multi-million dollar question is this:

Why on earth would a Type I Diabetic be consuming alcohol? And then to excuse the behavior of going to several bars and consuming these same alcoholic beverages, he now feels the need like any typical fathers rights activist to place blame on his wife, the PI's, the police, the City of San Diego - everywhere but where the blame needs to be placed - right square on his shoulders. This reminds me once again of many of the FR's out there (including my own worthless ex). When they are arrested for a violation of a court order, or when they have money taken from their check, or when they cannot pay their bills because they have played games with child support, or when the children finally have enough of the bull shit, these men will find a handy target other than the true and just target - themselves.

Yeah this is realllllllllllll good. I say we send letters to San Diego mayor in support of his officers. WTG good job guys! Also - the PI's in this case - you have a firm where I live? Wouldn't be able to afford you anyway :-) But excellent move guys!!!! What child needs to be in the custody of someone who consumes enough alcohol to get a DUI and suffer from diabetes also - which should preclude alcohol?

Never mind, I know what THEY will say. He is over 21 after all.

Matt O'Connor of F4J fame is up to.....

Well what is he doing nowadays you might ask? He sure does hate women as you can see by his history with the Father's 4 Justice group. But he is after all a man and a man who loves money (which is probably why he joined F4J - so he could avoid paying HER child support and/or alimony). So in conversing with my friendly BADASS MAMAS, what should we receive in our email box but this link: http://adweek.blogs.com/adfreak/2009/08/british-icecream-brand-squirts-out-first-ads.html. Hmmmmmm now I wonder what this could be? Read the story then click HERE and we now understand.

LONDON - One of the founders of fathers' rights group Fathers 4 Justice is launching a fresh artisanal Italian gelato brand in a bid to shake-up the UK ice-cream market.

Yep it seems good ol' Matt O'Connor is the founder of the icreamists, the players in these commercials. Hey he wants to control women, what a way for him to humiliate women and make men look even dumber than what they are. Or is it only MO'C who is that? One will never know. >;-}~~

UPDATE:
http://www.theicecreamists.com/ This is the website for the "actors and actresses" in these commercials. Please be warned (as a commenter has let me know) that if you truly love ice cream, you might not want to visit this site. It is thoroughly DISGUSTING and filled with woman hate and exploitation!

Bridezilla?

i'm surprised that the tv network...WE...women's entertainment tv ...has a show called bridezilla....i've seen the women on the show hit their soon to be husband....isn't that domestic violence?

Nimwit this is a REALITY TV show and these women are acting. None of this is REAL.

NCP Moms - a rarely discussed topic

Doug Says:

Trisha,

I do sympathize with your plight, as much as I sympathize with any one (male or female) in this situation. Bad people come in both genders.

But this is equality....why should you be treated differently? Are you saying you should be?

I read the article and in no place did I see her ask to be treated differently. I saw her say that men are not the only ones to go through this issue. I know many women who are on the verge of homelessness or those who are there. Yet when "society" looks at these moms, they must be unfit monsters. They are not. They are many times women who have issues that could be fixed (like Spears) or in most cases, they have battled against an abusive ex-partner and LOST. And the NCM's who have lost ahve something else to bear, the children have lost too.

Trisha-

NC Moms are like men with breast cancer. Same problem, tiny percentage of those who suffer from the condition.

However, unlike male breast cancer, NC Moms often don't have as severe of a condition. (If I remember correctly) less than half of NC Mothers are ordered to pay CS. When they are ordered, it's often a lower amount. From anecdotal evidence, I've seen mothers who are behind in CS get lenient treatment compared to men with arrears.

Okay lets examine this statistic posed by Armageddon. According to http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_4_1X_What_are_the_key_statistics_for_male_breast_cancer_28.asp, there were 1910 diagnosed cases of breast cancer in the US. Now how many diagnosed cases are there of NCM's? According to http://www.brainchildmag.com/essays/spring2009_read.asp there are over 2.2 million NCM's in the US. Hmmm that sort of puts your little comparison in doubt now doesn;t it Armageddon?

And here we have the ever-present "doubter":

Lewis Says:

I hate to be the cynic here and I'm certainly sorry for Trisha's plight but I have to ask if 'Trisha' is an alias? I can't help but wonder if she might have a more traditionally masculine appellation and got snagged because some bureaucrat thought she was male.

I'm also curious as to how many men may have been got up in the burst of energy that netted Trisha. Mostly this sort of thing comes as part of a big effort by the bureaucracy to crack down on the 'deadbeats' doesn't it?

Hmmm I wonder if his name was Tom would we be having this conversation Lewis?

And here we have more woman hate from Armageddon:

Armageddon Says:

i find this hilarious because I've heard it a lot usually from the same people who claim that family courts are gender neutral

Isn't cognitive dissonance a wonderful thing? ;)

The courts are gender neutral, but there is no way a mother would lose custody unless she was really unfit!

Either they are holding two opposing beliefs as true, or their definition of "gender neutral" means women are superior to men.

You notice he does exactly as the NCM's say? Well if she lost the kids, she was unfit.

Or how about this (now we know again that this IS All about child support):

Burke Says:

July 29th, 2009 at 1:32 pm
...I myself am fairly lucky now that my kids are getting older, and are spending more time with me. I get them more then 50% of the time in the summer and vacations i get them plus every second week-end. I'm not sure what that works out to as a % but my payments sure don't change in the summer thats for sure.

Burke your time in the summer is already figured into the child support calculations. Also the need for the chidlren to have a home does not magically "go away" just because they are visiting you.

And last but not least, the ultimate "she must be bad, this never happens to women cry - the one these men are so damned good at:

The story is an obvious fabrication. It is not possible for that to have happened to a woman.

Most men I know don't even own a tv? They are either into computers, photography, cars, guns, sports, etc? Most of the men I've met are usually much more active than any women I've meet that watch tons of tv including cooking shows like foodnetwork.?????

Only one comment here - men are INTO guns? yep we can sure see that with all of the innocent women, children and yes even other men being killed by MEN with GUNS.

At times I feel guilty when I say to never give up as I am one of the rare lucky ones who has primary care of our two boys. I have other dads who want to simply touch me in hopes of what they perceive as my luck possibly ribbing off on them.

Wow he realllllllllly loves himself doesn't he?

Hmmm where do their reports come from?

Knock Knock Says:

Doug asks:

"Can you please provide the link to this, it will be good ammo for future reference."

Here you go:

Report:
A Culture of False Allegations: How VAWA Harms Families and Children

Press Release:
One Million False Allegations of Domestic Violence Each Year, Report Finds

The organization that put these out is called "Respecting Accuracy In Domestic Abuse Reporting" (RADAR).

If I were you, I would be careful to avoid making any public assertions of fact based on the above report, simply because the source -- RADAR in this case -- is an advocacy organization and therefore by definition is biased. (You wouldn't trust the Tobacco Institute's reports about the safety of tobacco, would you?)

So if you do quote RADAR's report, you should be careful to describe it as "indicative" or "suggestive", rather than "authoritative" or "dispositive".

RADAR is biased towards men, because men have a more powerful voice. One simply need to look at our government and businesses to see that. And gentle readers don't you just LOVE how Knock Kncok gets around the fact that this group is for men?

Comments please! (oh and those from mysogynistic men will be deleted without question or comment, unless they are just so dam good and they create another post). Oh but that would be nearly all of them lol.....

Petunia on registered sex offenders (and k-dog too)

k-dog Says:

August 13th, 2009 at 10:05 am
Don't forget that in some parts of the country, registered "sex offenders" (note my skepticism) can wind up homeless because of restrictions on where they can live. So many yards from a school, etc. Remember the ones who were forced to stay under the bridge in Florida because there was nowhere else they could legally live? That plays a role in these punitive laws too.

Okay so now he is "skeptical" about the registered sex offenders? I am sure all the victims of these "offenders" would be glad to know that k-dog is lessening their suffering and trying to say it never happened. And now lets move to the very simple analogy in all of this:

IF THESE MEN WOULD NOT HAVE COMMITTED THE CRIME THEY WOULD NOT BE DOING THE TIME

It is as simple as that.
