Queen's message to students: Learn Your Feminist Catechism

I emailed the Rector and the Chancellor of Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, last week with a few questions about the blatant discrimination that I experienced on campus. I have not received a response, but my email is included at the bottom.

post, but in brief: a feminist Queen's student identified me as "whatshisface old guy" at a public event on campus and instructed the director of security to "get his ass out of there." The director of security ordered his security guards to do exactly that, without delay.

Unfortunately, this is not simply the actions of a single over-zealous director of security. It is Queen's administration and faculty who have poisoned the

"Old guys" are not welcome at Queens University

If you are an old guy at Queen's, security will get your ass out of there! This is not hyperbole ... it happened to me.

I started following Men's Issues after I stumbled upon, and filmed, a student protest of Dr. Warren Farrell in November 2012. Since then I have attended and filmed Men's Issues events at the University of Toronto, Ryerson University, Queen's Park, University of Ottawa and other places. No official, organizer, police officer, or security guard ever tried to interfere with my attendance or filming of these events. In fact, organizers have gone out their way to

Canadian Association For Equality events at Ontario Universities

The Canadian Association For Equality (CAFE) is hosting several events at Ontario universities in the next 10 days:

Dr. Edward Kruk, professor of sociology at the University of British Columbia (UBC), will speak about the failure of Family Courts to endorse equal parenting at the University of Toronto on Friday March 21 at 8 PM. Feminists have long opposed presumption of equal parenting in the

event of divorce, and perhaps Dr. Kruk will explore the strong influence that feminists hold over family law. Dr. Kruk has written several books on fatherhood and divorced fathers.

Dr. Janice Fiamengo, University of Ottawa, is one of very few academics in the world with the courage to criticize Women's Studies. A culture of fear has arisen on campuses, and

There's hope for mainstream media

You don't see this often ... an article critical of a women's issue in the mainstream media. The Globe and Mail's Margaret Wente calls foul on the feminist-invented rape crisis on North American University campuses. This false crisis is being used to justify unprecedented laws that put ordinary men at great risk when they pursue relations with the women they desire. 

Wente reminds us that, according to newly proposed laws, when a drunk couple has sex, the man is automatically defined as a rapist and the woman, a victim. It's refreshing to see a level-headed journalist willing to risk controversy by confronting such blatant stupidity. Especially when this stupidity has even infected the White House.

There are so many lopsided risks and liabilities that a man must take in order to build a full life for himself that I recently coined the term "heteroliability." But Wente only needed to focus on the draconian responses to the false rape crisis to conclude "I used to think the war on men was an exaggeration. I don’t think so any more."

If I were a religious man I would say "hallelujah," but I'll have to go with "AMEN!"

Heteroliability

You have never heard of this word because it doesn't exist ... yet. In fact there hasn't been a need for a word like this until now. 

So, what is it?

Heteroliability refers to the spectrum of risks and liabilities that men incur when they enter into a heterosexual relationship. These are serious risks, and they include:

Domestic Violence Laws (DV) that eliminate presumption of innocence, making a man vulnerable to false charges from an angry female partner. In 2001, Ontario, and many other North American jurisdictions, adopted a "Zero Tolerance" policy for domestic violence. On the surface "zero tolerance" sounds appropriate for domestic violence, however
