    Thumbs down What an insult! White Ribbon Ignores Violence Against Men


    Well,
    Last month was Pink Ribbon Month for Breast Cancer and didn't we all have that in our faces.

    This month is Movember as you are all no doubt aware, for prostate cancer and mens health issues.

    Imagine my surprise when an ad came over the radio at work yesterday.

    It was advertising "White Ribbon Day", what is that you ask?

    Let's see now.

    Also here.

    These womens groups aren't happy unless they are stepping on something that is meant to make the quality of men's live better, are they?

    Re: What an insult!

    At first I was jokingly cynic like 'hah, I bet they substituted it with another backdoor sneaky day that is devoted to women' and unfortunately my presumption was right... It's about violence against women.

    This is not merely insulting, this is INFURIATING and this made my blood boil. My apologies for my language, but the people who made this up deserve to be shot.

    I notice days initially supposed to be devoted to men are just ignored or hijacked with women oriented themes and now they had the guts to devote it to one of the most outrageous causes that exist... A day that focusses on demonizing men even more.

    People should burn these white ribbons...

    Re: What an insult!

    it's the same shit around here.

    they even had a feminist idoctrination camp here today for our school children-about the pitfalls of being a girl and to be aware of the descrimination women face around the world.

    school kids?--ffs


    i am gettin so fed-up with this shit!


    to bad we cannot organize something that can make a difference

    Re: What an insult!

    It's not so much that White Ribbon day is even happening that pisses me off,
    it is the fact that the feminists have run rough-shod all over it and the public gets the message that only MEN are abusers.
    Where are the people speaking out about female abusers?
    Honestly, where the hell are they, on White Ribbon Day?

    Myself and Steve (a good mate and MRA) intend to go and rain on thier Fem parade down in Timaru, with placards saying "Not only men are violent" and "White Ribbon Day is a joke"

    These are the same women that tried to put a stop to the Mens Centre down there.

    Will let you folks know how it goes.

    Re: What an insult!

    This is exactly the kind of insensitivity, ignorance and lack of compassion that we have come to expect from these feminist powered campaigns.
    I wouldn't worry about it too much.

    I think the over-exposure of women's interest awareness and fund-raising campaigns is beginning to backfire. They have become such an everyday part of the scenery that people just don't notice anymore.

    Men's health awareness and fund-raising campaigns are fresh, exciting and fun - and I think they are beginning to attract more interest than ever.
    Movember has been a FANTASTIC success and I imagine this success will continue to grow in the years to come.

    The "White Ribbon" campaign's anti-male sentiment makes it a legitimate target for us to attack. It is with this in mind that I intend to sabotage any boxes of "White Ribbon" pins by squirting paint or glue over them, rendering them unsaleable and preventing the flow of any cash that would be spent pushing it's misandric message further.
    I employed a similar tactic to sabotage packets of Oven Pride after it's producer Homepride launched its appallingly misandric advertising campaign earlier this year.
    My supermarket no longer stock Oven Pride.
    It just doesn't sell.

    Now that is a good example of taking action! Something we all can learn from.

    Whenever society elevates one group to demigod status then you'll have "violence against women" taking prominence above all other forms of violence, including violence against children (with women being the biggest physical abusers of children it's not too difficult to understand why it gets relegated below women in terms of importance).

    Many women themselves see no contradiction when arguing on one hand that women are just as capable, just as good as men, etc. and on the other hand arguing that women need more protection than men do from violence, rape, etc.

    It's stupid to try to reason with them most of the time. It's like me trying to reason with the KKK.
    When I do this, and I know I will, it will be comparable to the lame learning to walk, the blind being enabled to see and the suffocated breathing again. The sky isn't the limit; there are no limits.

    I sometimes believe trying to reason with the KKK would be easier compared to argeuing with a (feministic thinking) woman...

    Let's not make our voices heard by breaking the law or damaging others property folks. This sort of thing, although slightly effective, makes us look no better than the nutjob femikooks.

    At least you'd know where you stand with those fuckers.

    It's very strange that women constantly bang on about being as capable as men, sometimes more so, yet when it comes to bad things, we've all of a sudden to forget that they're as capable as men, how odd, they are capable of setting their mind to doing something good and seeing it through, yet these same capable adults can't put their mind to something bad and see it through?
    No, I refuse to believe any section of society is capable at positive/good things, yet incapable of negative/bad things.

    Re: What an insult!

    Steve and I got out there during our lunch break and waved some placards.
    The fem-bots had a march up the street with a big banner reading:
    Men need to change thier attitudes and Violence in the home kills women.
    They had a chant going amoungst the protesters that said "We want protection from men, when do we want it?, now!"

    With the size of some of the wimmin there, I'm surprised they managed to walk the 300m of the protest march, without having a coronary

    Steve made up a placard Not only men are abusers, women abuse too

    I held one that said The DV industry needs auditing, see here

    It was a pity we didn't have more MRA's in the area, we did get a lot of sneering looks from the fem-parade as they jack-booted past.
