The Great Feminization by Helen Andrews

Filed under: Gender Politics — JohnPotter @ 10:19 am

https://www.compactmag.com/article/the-great-feminization/

I recommend reading the full article, but here’s a taste:

So the timing fits. Wokeness arose around the same time that many important institutions tipped demographically from majority male to majority female.

The substance fits, too. Everything you think of as wokeness involves prioritizing the feminine over the masculine: empathy over rationality, safety over risk, cohesion over competition. Other writers who have proposed their own versions of the Great Feminization thesis, such as Noah Carl or Bo Winegard and Cory Clark, who looked at feminization’s effects on academia, offer survey data showing sex differences in political values. One survey, for example, found that 71 percent of men said protecting free speech was more important than preserving a cohesive society, and 59 percent of women said the opposite.

The most relevant differences are not about individuals but about groups. In my experience, individuals are unique and you come across outliers who defy stereotypes every day, but groups of men and women display consistent differences. Which makes sense, if you think about it statistically. A random woman might be taller than a random man, but a group of ten random women is very unlikely to have an average height greater than that of a group of ten men. The larger the group of people, the more likely it is to conform to statistical averages.

Female group dynamics favor consensus and cooperation. Men order each other around, but women can only suggest and persuade. Any criticism or negative sentiment, if it absolutely must be expressed, needs to be buried in layers of compliments. The outcome of a discussion is less important than the fact that a discussion was held and everyone participated in it. The most important sex difference in group dynamics is attitude to conflict. In short, men wage conflict openly while women covertly undermine or ostracize their enemies.

The Great Feminization: women as drivers of modern social change

Filed under: Gender Politics — JohnPotter @ 9:19 am

Back in 2022, an author using the pseudonym “J.Stone”, published a book with the title above. An e-book is available on Amazon.

The book has attracted much attention in recent weeks, thanks to conservative political commentator Helen Andrews. She writes:

Cancel culture is simply what women do whenever there are enough of them in a given organization or field. That is the Great Feminization thesis, which the same author later elaborated upon at book length: Everything you think of as “wokeness” is simply an epiphenomenon of demographic feminization.

The explanatory power of this simple thesis was incredible. It really did unlock the secrets of the era we are living in. Wokeness is not a new ideology, an outgrowth of Marxism, or a result of post-Obama disillusionment. It is simply feminine patterns of behavior applied to institutions where women were few in number until recently. How did I not see it before?

Blog comments gone?

Filed under: General — JohnPotter @ 4:32 pm

A couple of weeks ago, while travelling overseas, I was contacted by a regular MENZ visitor and told the comments were no longer accessible. After wasting a couple of hours testing the wrong things yesterday, I finally checked the comments admin page and discovered that all comments had been deleted from the database. I have no idea how this happened.

EDIT NEXT DAY: It turns out the comments database table had crashed, and once I found the place to tick the box and select “repair table”, all 47,353 comments have reappeared! And the backups are working again.

The presenter’s speech will leave you in no doubt what is going on.

It is truly violent to disrespect a man, compromise his wellbeing just so you can take his children and wealth.

It is typical. It is not the future. It has been going on for decades.

The knock on here is women are desperately seeking a man to settle down with. A man who already has property, who is financially stable, has a career and is ready for commitment. Try as they might, women can’t seem to get men to commit to an everlasting relationship.

Because men know everlasting is something beyond 3 years and one week.

It’s the biggest scam in town. Keep your guard up men. She doesn’t love you. She loves what you can provide and finally take from you.

A message to all children victims of family court.

Filed under: General — Lukenz @ 8:59 am

One day you will bury your father. And that day you will realise you lost the only man who wanted to see you do better than him.

Here are six questions to ask your father before he dies.

Number one. What’s your happy memory of us?

Number two. What were those first few days of fatherhood like?

Number three. What do you want or wish most for your kids?

Number four. When was the moment you felt most proud of me?

Number five. What’s the nicest thing I’ve ever done for you?

Number six. What’s the one thing you want me to always remember after you’re gone?

Fathers are our silent heros carrying the weight of the family on their backs. Oftentimes not getting recognised or appreciated as they deserve. And as life moves forward, we often forget to ask the questions that, so take time out to speak with them now because one day it’s their wisdom and love and presence that you’ll miss the most long after they’re gone.

Former Family Court Judge Spills The Beans

Former Family Court Judge Stuart Lindsay Declares.

Endless successive governments have “tried to ensure Judges provide for right outcomes in accordance with the invariably feminist ideology.”

The consequences have been dire. “The Family Law Act has promoted great wickedness throughout Australian society for 50 years.”

SHOCK DISCOVERY: Any time a woman has sex with a man, she retains his DNA in her brain

Filed under: General — Lukenz @ 11:25 am

News story here

New research from Seattle University and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Centre has accidentally revealed that a portion of DNA from every man with whom a woman has sex ends up staying with her forever, lodged in her brain.

Women who save themselves for marriage and who only ever have sex with one man become joined to that one man and him only. Women who engage in promiscuous sex, we now know, are altering their bodies in ways that are only just now beginning to be understood.

My ex must have at least 50 or maybe 100 different male DNA in her brain. Always though there was something wrong with her thought process.

Although [Louise] Woodward’s case put a spotlight on the questionable science behind shaken baby syndrome, today, mothers, fathers, and caregivers are still being prosecuted for it. It is estimated that over the decades thousands have been accused, and many convicted, of harming or killing a child by shaking.

Seven people charged after police uncover fraudulent sexual abuse compensation scheme worth AU$1.3 Billion (NZ $1.44 Billion)

Filed under: General — Lukenz @ 9:29 pm

News Link Here

Detectives have executed search warrants and charged seven people across Sydney after uncovering an enormous sexual abuse claims scheme.

In a statement, NSW Police said the scheme saw payouts to date exceeding $1 billion.

Throughout yesterday, police arrested a further six people, including a 53-year-old woman, a 32-year-old man, a 42-year-old man, a 52-year-old woman, a 35-year-old woman, and a 23-year-old man.

Each fake claim is a man and their family who has been put through hell.

I am going to call it. Any conviction made through this syndicate must be treated as unsafe. Countless convicted victims must be released immediately and quickly compensated. Those charged but not convicted must be compensated.

Charged but not convicted is extremely harmful. It is public, it can destroy a marriage. It is costly, mind occupying and can cause lifelong mental trauma. Most importantly, it causes male suicide.

If you want to leave, leave with what you came with or a fair share of what you built, but no longer half of what a man owns.

One man steps up and says NO!

Filed under: General — Lukenz @ 12:47 pm

One man steps up and says no to woke. Trumps said we will recognise the things that make men and women unique. The vast majority agrees with him. However, that didn’t stop the women expressing their displeasure in the second video. It reports, Women saying they were loosing their civil rights. The reporter when on to say the working class women showed up for their husbands and sons.

1. The married men voted for Trump
2. The unmarried men voted for Trump
3. The unmarried women voted for Harris.

The great reset may very well be quite different to those who hide under that bunch of unelected people calling themselves the UN.

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan creates new new role of Parliamentary Secretary for Men’s Behaviour Change

Filed under: General — Lukenz @ 6:21 am

News link here

A new low from women’s activist Jacinta Allan.

Comments by others were.

‘Are you for f***ing real? Do you despise men that much? Have you observed women’s behaviour as well? It works both ways,’ one woman commented.’

‘We need a minister for men. Not this! This is more posturing which will do nothing to solve the violence issue,’ a second person wrote.

Another woman claimed the role was ‘demonising men’ and urged the government to focus on bail laws and keeping offenders in jail.

‘You’re serious? What an absolute joke,’ she commented.

‘You’re demonising men when a very small percentage are offenders and almost all of them are people you’ve already let out on bail or are known to police already.

‘Most men don’t go around bashing women. We despise men who do, they are considered the lowest scumbags,’
