    As few as 20 percent of people able to flee disaster areas are men


    Thanks to AM forum member scullion, we have had the stupidity of a recent European government resolution brought to our attention.

    The resolution is multi-faceted and is available in full from European Parliament archives:
    REPORT on women and climate change - A7-0049/2012

    As part of the justification this resolution for yet more special attention for women, is a claim made about how many women and children (lumped together) are refugees:
    between 75 and 80 % of the world’s 27 million refugees are women and children
    This quote is taken directly from one of many United Nations web pages on women:
    Women at a Glance

    Another way to state the quoted text is
    Between 20 and 25% of the world’s 27 million refugees are men.

    Using the same census data and methods used elsewhere to analyse the resolution it can be calculated that the ratio of men in disaster zones causing refugees is 37% (if 'children' are those under 15). One has to wonder why the United Nations' figures can be used to prove that women need special attention.

    According to United Nations data, of those able to flee disaster zones and become refugees, men are under-represented by up to 148%.

    That is to say, if you are a man in a disaster zone, you have only a 67% chance of making it to become a refugee than the average for women and children.

    I call upon all governments to target specific assistance for men in disaster zones so that the world can be made into an equal society where everyone has an equal opportunity of surviving to become a refugee regardless of age or sex.

    I think this should be an article in it's own right...

    The most offensive thing you can do to a feminist is treat her with FULL equality.

    Husband : "How about the ones like mine?"
    Wife : "Those they gave away."
    Husband : "I had a dream too...I dreamt they were auctioning off pussy. The pretty ones went for a thousand dollars, and the little tight ones went for two thousand."
    Wife : "And how much for the ones like mine?"
    Husband : "That's where they held the auction."

    The entire globe is fast becoming a potential "disaster area" . . .

    I live in U.S. FEMA prison camp area #IV !

    There can be few better illustrations of female privilege, than this; to paint women as the victims, for being refugees, when, by definition, they are SURVIVORS, and have left behind a relatively VERY HIGH number of men, as such, is quite amazing. What purports to be an example of female oppression, is actually quite the opposite. They'll be releasing 1912 statistics, which state that 80% of those who got sea-sickness after the Titanic sunk, from the lifeboats, were women, next..........

    Since Hilary Clinton said , something like , "Women and children are the main victims of war because they lose husbands , sons etc ," . It must therefore be assumed that women were the biggest victims on the Titanic .
    Silly us . Most of us have assumed that men were the main victims ,when all along it was women .
    Women are always the victims in society .They are oppressed by nasty men who exploit them by paying for dates ,showering them with gifts , marrying them and finally giving everything they own to them when they divorce .
    Maybe it's time we all stopped and gave more thought to how oppressed women are .

    One of the most fundamentally important things all men need to learn about women is their incredible desire for, and propensity to achieve the status of, victimhood. It is a huge part of the female psyche; they cling to it through thick and thin, guard it jealously and will never let it go. The need to be a victim under all circumstances trumps just about every other impulse. And it certainly trumps any concern for the truth.

    So very true, pretty much. Even if not used deviously, many, perhaps even most, women seem to love playing 'victim', to a greater or a lesser extent. Men, conversely, HATE being seen as victims, and feel the need to "man up" every time there's a legitimate opportunity to be seen as a victim (societal expectations, at play?). This is why the feminist movement is the tragic success story that it is.........

    It’s been a while since I've been here, mostly dealing with deployments with my job and temporary duty assignments, but I still love catching up on the articles. I read the link: REPORT on women and climate change, and found out that the politicians quote statistics supporting this gender initiative as well, including this one:

    "Miss Kiil-Nielsen cited research showing women are 14 times more likely to die during natural disasters and said this would apply to those caused by climate change such as drought, famine and malaria."

    Now if you consider this with the statistics that women make up let’s say 80% of refugees in ‘disaster areas’ (drought, famine and disease included) like the UN reports, then that would mean that 14 out of every 15 deaths are women and 8 out of 10 refugees are women (and children). Now doing the math, that means that women and children would have to make up 86.5% of the total population for both of those statistics to be accurate. If you divide the children into boys and girls categories then it would still mean that 76.5% of the population would have to be female for the statistics to hold true.

    Bear in mind, the only reason men would not be counted as refugees is because they are either dead from the disaster (yet only 1 man dies for every 14 women), or they simply are not there, which begs the question where are they then?

    To me this doesn't sound right that just over three quarters of the population is female? So what is happening then to all the males to cause this disparity? I ask again, if they are not dying and they are not in the refugee camps, then where are they?

    Here's my first guess: they are probably in the disaster area on the front lines risking life and limb, rescuing people, cleaning it up, and preventing any further problems, all the while far too busy to sit back in a refugee camp or an open grave. That's right, we are too busy to be counted as victims or to even stay dead after disaster hits because its up to us to save everyone else. That's what I notice when I watch videos of disaster areas, hordes of men working tirelessly to provide front line relief.
