What happened to Glenn Sacks? He resigned from F and F then he vanished. His websites are abandoned. Google searches show nothing, no statements, zip, zilch.

Main / Re: Let's List Some of the Insane Victories of Feminists

Jul 18, 2005, 07:48 PM

Females in New York have sued successfully to be able to take their tops off like men.

That one is a mixed blessing. Any supermodel who wishes to exercise that particular victory, well I will concede defeat. I even heard that Amanda Marcotte is pretty hot for a feminist, so if she wishes to.....well I am open minded. Thank god that Andrea D is not with us any more, as I am not that open minded.

Main / Phyllis Schlafly's latest article on VAWA

Jul 18, 2005, 07:35 PM

I normally disagree with almost everything that Phyllis Schafly says. Not in this case. The truth is the truth, and she speaks it well is this article. Time to contact our legislators for a little wake up call.

Main / 11 year old Fesno girl throws rock hitting boy in head

Jul 15, 2005, 08:40 PM

The jerks name is Todd Goldman. Here is a link to Glenn Sacks article.

http://www.hisside.com/campaign_boys_are.htm.

My eight year old son has had a lot of problems due to ADD and Tourettes.
He got in trouble at daycare, so the next day I went to talk to him during lunch. At one point in our conversation, he told me he saw a girl wearing a tshirt that made him sad. I asked him exactly how did the tshirt make him feel? He said "Like I am just making everything worse". Surprised, I asked him what the tshirt said. He said "Boys are stupid throw rocks at them". I told him that he wasn't stupid, that I was proud of him. I told him that Todd Goldman is a sick person who likes to make money hurting other people. I was proud to tell him that I was one of the people who tried to put that bastard out of business. Fuck Todd Goldman!

Typhon, you have a real gift for gracious understatement. You would make a wonderful diplomat.

Main / America's Not Funny Home Videos

Jul 09, 2005, 11:23 PM

This is a copy of a letter I sent to ABC. I will post a response if I get one.

"July 9, 2005
Anne Sweeney, President Disney-ABC Television
ABC, Inc.
500 S. Buena Vista Street
Burbank, CA 91521-4551

Dear Ms. Sweeney:
I have serious concerns about the acceptance of violence toward men on "America's Funniest Home Videos". I have seen that a staple form of humor is a man or boy receiving a genital injury, and going down in pain. This seems to followed by great mirth. I do not believe that I have seen a girl or a woman receiving a hard blow to the vagina or breasts on the show. Do you think that a 14 year old girl being accidentally punched in the vagina and collapsing in pain funny? I do not think so. Then why is it acceptable to show this happening to a man or boy? I know that you have guidelines on deciding what is acceptable, what do they say about genital and breast injuries to girls and women? Are they unacceptable, when the same thing to a man is acceptable. I have stopped watching your show after seeing a clip of an old man walking across some rocks along a lake edge. He fell hard, right on his hip. My seven and eight year old sons thought that was hilarious. I turned off the TV, and asked my sons if grandma had fallen like that would they have laughed as hard. They were shocked, and said no, that would be horrible. I asked them how would they feel if someone laughed when she fell. They said they would be angry, because it would be very mean to laugh when someone was hurt. I told them that a fall like that could kill an older person. I did not tell them that that is how one of their relatives died, a slow painfull death from a broken hip. I hope I made my point to them, I am not sure I can say the same about ABC. "

I think the parts with rabies. I have literally felt like I was getting pelted with saliva in exchanges with NYMOM. Going online with Trish or Amanda's blogs, when NYMOM weighs in, I feel like I need a towel or a shower afterwards. :shock: Or both!

That's definately going into my "Scary X-tian Women" file. Right next to NYMOM.

I disagree. NYMOM is in a class(or lack therof) by herself. See my previous definition of Feministing and insert NYMOM. Sometimes I think she is channeling pieces of Andrea Dworkin.

"NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. (July 9) - Evangelist Billy Graham's daughter was arrested and charged with domestic abuse after witnesses told police she choked her husband in a parking lot, authorities said.

Virginia Graham Foreman, 59, spent a night in jail after the July 1 confrontation outside a shopping center, police said. She was charged with misdemeanor domestic abuse and released the following day.

Three witnesses told police that Foreman pushed her husband and grabbed him by the throat, authorities said.

A Volusia County judge who presided over Foreman's first court appearance said Chad Foreman told police that witnesses had "just misunderstood what was going on between them.''

No one answered the phone at the couple's home on Friday.

Billy Graham, 86, concluded a three-day revival meeting in New York City last month that he indicated could be his last."

Just a misunderstanding! Standard male response to minimze the situation. Anyone in Florida who can write a letter to the editor in the local paper?

Main / What happened to Dean Tong?

Jul 07, 2005, 11:16 PM

I believe so, but I am not 100% sure. They were both on the Dr Phil show as advisors to Bridget Marks. Dr Mathis had this to say about PAS.

"Every day court bias and misconduct by judges who have been groomed in Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) harm the children in America. Every day courts collude with sexual predators who grow their own child victims and continue the abuse by awarding custody to these abusive parents. Parent Alienation Syndrome is a pseudo-psychological theory that Dr. Richard Gardner ?made up? in his head and which no mental health, psychological, scientific or any other organization outside of judges and attorneys, back up, support or use. It states that when women are going through divorce and state that there has been sexual misconduct by their partner, they are alienating the children against the father, and should be punished by having a weekend in jail and losing their right to parent. It is the most outrageous act of harm that has come to children across America in the last century. Dr. Gardner didn't have any scientific research to back up his claim and I find it interesting that he committed suicide this past year."

Then Dean Tong from his website.
"Dean Tong presented Child Abuse 2000: False Allegations and Parental Alienation Syndrome at the November 7, 1999 National Cry for the Children Rally in Washington, DC. Visit www.nationalcryforchildren.org to order a copy of his compelling speech!"

and
"1990'S Attended scores of conference seminars and plenary sessions dealing with child custody, and parental alienation syndrome given by Richard Gardner, M.D., Douglas Darnall, Ph.D., and Philip Stahl, Ph.D., at the Childrens Rights Council, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1999."

This is like Warren Farrell and Gloria Allred getting together to praise Andrea Dworkin. I am confused.

I actually took Stally's suggestion and emailed Dean Tong. I figured that he probably got enough grief from others, so I used the same lighthearted manner as I did opening my post. My mistake. I got a very pissed off reply. I really wanted to ask him about his asssociation with Dr Kathy Mathis in the Bridget Marks case. I wanted to ask him how he thought it may affect others views of PAS, to be working side by side with someone who debunks something so close to his heart. To me, it affected the way I view his leadership in this, and how I may use his name and examples in any future contact with legislative and policy making bodies. I think that someone who holds himself in a leadership position, in the public eye, should be willing to explain where they are coming from. I know that I am just "Joe Blow" from Long Beach, but I plan to have a very busy year, and all the elected officials in my area will get to know me well.

The last few years Dean Tong has been a star of our movement. Then he came out on the side of Bridget Marks, and was sitting side by side with some of the most virulently anti-PAS people you could find. Now I rarely hear him quoted among us. What happened? Does anyone know the story, or the story behind the story? Did the pod people get him?

Main / Warren Farrell's presentations at the Men's Equality Cong.

About two thirds of the way down I saw this, does this refer to last year?

"Many thanks also to our speakers Stephen Baskerville, Glenn Sacks, Jack Kammer, Dean Tong, Carnell Smith,  Michael Geanoulis,  David Burroughs who did a great job.

Please feel free to participate in discussions in our guestbook or and let us know what you would like to see for next year."

If I am wrong, sorry. I would still like to know what his reason was for coming out on Bridget Marks side.
