    What is 'misandry' and what is 'anti-misandry'?
    Misandry is the hatred of males as a sex, as opposed to misogyny, the hatred of women; or misanthropy, hatred of the human species. Misandry comes from misos (Greek μῖσος, "hatred" + andr-ia (Greek anér-andros, "man". Those holding misandric beliefs can be of either sex. Thus it holds to common sense that Anti Misandry is to work toward removing misandry from our culture.

    Can you give me some demonstrations of misandry?
    Sure. Have a look at the second-wave feminist view of men for an example. Valerie Solanas, the radical feminist who shot Andy Warhol in 1968, provides a famous example of misandry in her self-published SCUM Manifesto. In case you're wondering, SCUM is an acronym for 'Society for Cutting Up Men', practically a call for gendercide, the culling of men. Quite literally, Solanas expressed her desire to "institute complete automation and destroy the male sex."

    Wow, this is pretty bad stuff - what can I do about misandry?
    For one thing, you can stop accepting it as a ...

    I received this reply from BA today:


    Dear Mr Purnell

    Thank you for your email. I am sorry that you are unhappy with our response. I understand that you feel disappointed with our policy about seating for unaccompanied minors. Please also accept my sincere apologies for the delay in our response.


    I can confirm that all feedback we have received relating to the unaccompanied minor seating policy has been carefully reviewed and has led to us reassessing the policy in full. The new policy for seating unaccompanied minors who travel with British Airways does not make any distinction between male and female passengers.


    I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your feedback. Your business is invaluable to us and we appreciate that you have a choice when it comes to booking your flights. Thank you again for getting in touch and for giving me the opportunity to respond to your concerns.

    Dear Sergeant Eld, I write this letter to you because you were identified as the spokesperson for the Orlando Police Department in a story on false rape accusations that recently ran on NBC Channel Two in Orlando, both in their television broadcast and on their website.

    There were some statements attributed to you by the station that raise some questions that I think need to be posed, given the gravity of the subject at hand.

    You were quoted as saying, “We want victims to continue to report crime. We don’t want to spend endless hours and resources chasing ghosts.”

    You added to that comment by saying, “False reports take personnel away from other calls for service, increasing the response time for real victims,” and that, “It also taints the jury pool in Orange county for true legitimate rape cases.”

    Finally, you were quoted as saying, “False reports cause unnecessary fear in the community.”

    With all respect to the dangerous and often thankless work done by police everywhere, and with great appreciation for your public call to address this problem, isn’t there something else that these false reports cause?

    Like the lives of men devastated, their reputations and well being destroyed? Like innocent men behind bars? ...

    I am bringing this article here after posting it as the first piece on the overhauled version of my website. It's intended to explain, in part, the real roots of feminism, but also why I have a website and do the things I do. I didn't need to do much editing to run it here.

    We are on very similar pages, but I want to make it clear that in parts of this article I am speaking only for A Voice for Men's mission and policies, and not speaking for Antimisandry.com.


    Many of the problems men and boys face today relate to feminist ideology, and you will read a lot about that here. But most of that is just addressing a symptom of the problem. *The core of it is what I call Marxist Consumerism. It is a term that would ostensibly appear to be an oxymoron, but is actually a perfect description of where society is heading. *Our cultural evolution is tracking toward a dumbed down population of brainwashed consumer units who are wholly owned and controlled by a State that is now a government/corporate complex. *And it rules, largely by a system of Governance Feminism. *Let me explain from the start:

    Feminism is a Marxist strategy designed to undermine the family and all other traditional institutions so that the primary relationship individuals have is ultimately with The State. *In the process of accomplishing this, private property, the only tangible proof of individual liberty, becomes a thing of the past. *That is your New World Order in a nutshell. *And if your eyes are open you have been watching it happen for most or all of your ...

    The Violence Against Women Act is up for renewal this year, 2010, as it has been every five years since its enactment in 1994. Whether or not Congress will actually vote on its renewal before year’s end is another question. Between the Supreme Court nomination, the Gulf Oil Spill, two overseas wars, and an election they just might have to wait. Also, the way that certain bills get reauthorized can be a very behind the scenes process that is very hard to understand or even get a grasp of as many committees do their work behind closed doors in order for things to run more smoothly. Whether VAWA gets reauthorized quickly without amendments or delayed until next year, giving SAVE and other groups a chance to influence the legislation, is anybody’s guess right now.

    One thing is for sure, increasing numbers of groups and individuals are coming to the hill as citizen lobbyists to talk to House and Senate staffers about their opinions and experiences concerning the domestic violence laws that often times seize control over the lives of people in the most destructive of ways. Some congressional staff are ambivalent, some confused, some hostile, and some are actually listening. Yes, that’s right, there are actually people on Capitol Hill that are open to the idea that VAWA is a flawed piece of legislation that should be changed in a fundamental way.

    Paul Elam returns to Anti Misandry with a new vigour! Successful conversations have resulted in a positive and forward thinking relationship between Paul Elam and Anti Misandry. We naturally welcome Paul back, and hope all our members can bring positive responses to his articles. As Editor in Chief of MensNewsDaily, Paul is an excellent position to give quality contributions and updates in the world of mens rights - or lack thereof, and naturally speaks volumes about his abilities to perform.

    Paul has been absent for a few months due to various reasons which have now been ironed out and moved on from, so let's all make an effort to keep it that way. In other words, I'd like to not see any members (nor guests for that matter) making snarky comments. Follow the old line of wisdom, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything." One of the most important things we can do is to minimize the in-fighting. By squabbling amongst ourselves, we do more damage and harm to the MRM than feminists can. If we want to stand a chance in this war, let alone win, it is of the utmost importance that we put aside our personal differences and learn to move on for the betterment of men.

    We look forward to engaging with Paul and his work which hopefully will assist in building more bridges for more men and their families.

    BBC News - BA compensates man 'humiliated' over child seat policy

    BA has compensated a passenger who was "humiliated' over its policy of not allowing single male flyers to sit next to solo child travellers on its planes.
    British Airways cabin crew told Mirko Fischer to move after he swapped seats with his wife and ended up sitting next to a boy he did not know.
    Mr Fischer, 33, accused staff of harassing him and said the policy contravened the Sex Discrimination Act.
    BA apologised to the businessman but denied the policy was discriminatory.
    A spokesman told the BBC the policy was now under review.
    A consent order detailing a settlement between the parties was drawn up at Slough County Court on Wednesday.
    Mr Fischer was on a flight from London back to his home in Luxembourg on 20 April 2009 when his pregnant wife Stephanie asked him to swap seats so she could sit next to the window.
