  • A Swedish couple refuses to reveal whether their two-year-old child is a boy or girl, claiming that “gender” is a “social construction.” By Selwyn Duke Sweden has long been known for pristine lakes and forests, long-legged blondes and ultra-safe cars, but it’s now distinguishing itself in another, more dubious, way: as the nation of feminism…

  • By Selwyn Duke If you’ve ever seen the movie Idiocracy, the title of this piece may seem familiar.  The film is a dystopian comedy about a futuristic America in which complete ignorance is the norm.  People are inarticulate to the point where even those of status — politicians, doctors, etc. — mangle the language and…

  • By Selwyn Duke After writing my piece about the man who won the women's long drive contest, I received a lot of criticism from altered-men apologists.  One of these critiques was just posted at my site, and here it is as it was sent to me (my response follows):

  • By Selwyn Duke We all know about the lifespan gap between the sexes that favors women. Now, what if I said it was due to discrimination, that it obviously means men’s health issues are ignored by a callous, misandristic society; thus, government must intervene to balance the scales.
