  • Dangerous United Nations Women’s Treaty Looms on Horizon

    By Selwyn Duke While Americans are thinking about turkey and the TSA (and turkeys in the TSA), as is often the case, the most destructive governmental shenanigans are occurring behind the scenes. On Thursday, November 18, the Senate held hearings on the U.N.’s Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW),…

  • The Envious Feminist

    By Selwyn Duke People are emotional beings, often governed more by feelings than reason.  And this is never truer than with leftist people. If you want to understand liberals, know that most of their ideology is simply a pseudo-intellectual justification for what feels right to them.  As for these feelings, the one stereotypically associated with…

  • The Real Problem with Pro-choice Men

    A commentator wonders why pro-choice men aren’t as numerous or as vocal as their pro-life counterparts. But the answer is so simple that only a pro-choice pundit could miss it. By Selwyn Duke Sometimes you just have to be thankful for your enemies. Case in point: The maelstrom surrounding the pro-life Super Bowl ad starring…

  • Scott Brown, Glenn Beck and the Spirit of the Age

      By Selwyn Duke Scott Brown may be the Massachusetts man of the moment, but it sure didn’t take him long to commit his first gaffe. The scene was the podium at his Senate-campaign victory speech, where, flanked by his two scantily clad daughters, he proclaimed to the world that they were “available.” No, Bill…

  • Big Brother: France to Ban “Psychological Violence” in Marriages

    He said, she said? If she said he said the wrong thing, what he said won’t mean anything. By Selwyn Duke We’ve all heard of hate-speech laws. Well, now France will become the first country to enact rudeness-speech laws, making it a crime to commit “psychological violence” within a relationship. In other words, if Pierre…

  • Widow Says Husband Driven to Heart Attack after False Accusation of Pedophilia

    We’ve all heard about false accusations of sexual criminality, incidents such as the 2006 Duke University rape frame-up case. They are a form of psychological molestation and can destroy a person’s life just as being physically molested can. Well, now such an accusation might have ended a man’s life. The hapless victim, 63-year-old British citizen…

  • Boys’ Educational Failure is No Mystery

    By Selwyn Duke A lot has changed since 1960. If Connie Francis were to sing “Where the Boys Are” today, she would not likely be talking about Ft. Lauderdale. And she probably wouldn’t be talking about college, either. This is because, in a decades-old phenomenon, boys have increasingly been stumbling academically. Colleges have taken note…

  • Are Hormone-mimicking Chemicals Harming Our Children?

    By Selwyn Duke Are chemicals in our environment masculinizing girls and feminizing boys? A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that this is the case, and one of the latest studies has linked exposure to a substance known as bisphenol A, or BPA, with aggressive behavior in girls. Liz Szabo reports on the research in…

  • Death of the West: Our Sexual Identity Crisis

    So what are we to conclude about “gender” science? Decades ago its “experts” said society could turn your boy into a girl if it felt like it; now they say he can turn himself into a girl if he feels like it. Is it just a coincidence that Dr. Money’s “gender neutrality” theory accorded with…

  • Demographic Sleight-of-hand

    Contrary to the conventional narrative about European demographic decline, a trio of researchers claims that increased prosperity is now causing Old World birthrates to rise. But what are the statistics behind the statistics? By Selwyn Duke Although there are still some kept awake by Soylent Green nightmares of overpopulation, many recognize that the developed world…
