Chinese Man Jumping In River Reveals The Hidden Side Of Arranged Marriages
“Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match…”

-Fiddler on the Roof
By Mumia Ali: Millennial pop cultural news website Elite Daily reported on an interesting story over the weekend
that your correspondent thinks is highly legitimate insofar as men’s
issues are concerned. A Chinese man named Kang Hu attempted to commit
suicide by drowning himself in a nearby river rather than marry his
intended bride, 30 year old Na Sung, for being “too ugly” and citing the
serious damage it would do to his image. After being rescued by a
policeman and a foreman using a rope tied around Kang’s chest to haul
him out of the drink, Kang said the following:
“I feel bad about what happened, but when I saw her, she wasn’t what I expected, and I realized she would be bad for my image. My parents had arranged this and I couldn’t see any way out apart from suicide.”The story immediately resonated with yours truly because I know firsthand what it’s like to have a homely gal foisted upon you by kith and kin – something I’ve discussed at some length previously – and the story has great interest because it belies the notion in our time of arranged marriages being something that is oppressive only to women.
Palestinians In West Bank Use Land Day To Protest Israeli Occupation
Palestinians have marched in the occupied West Bank to
commemorate the Land Day, an annual event to mark the killing of six
Palestinians by Israeli regime death squads during mass protests at Israel’s seizure
of their land in 1976.
Press TV: Large number of Palestinians in the village of Huwara participated in the demonstration on Monday, which was meant to stress that the Palestinians will always confront Israeli ethnic cleansing policies.
“The Land Day has a very important meaning to the Palestinian people. It’s the day of resistance against occupation; it’s the day of resistance against settlement and resistance for freedom,” said Mustafa Barghouthi, a leader of the Palestinian National Initiative.
“Palestinians all over the world are united today in one voice. Facing the world, we will cry that we have a right, an inalienable right in our land Palestine,” said Qais Abd al-Karim, from the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

Gender Relations In India With Anil Kumar And Filmmaker Deepika Bhardwaj
By Steve Brulé: The details vary slightly but the one-sided, false-narrative of female-victim / male-villain in domestic violence is being told around the world in many different ways. Join us on March 31 at 10 AM EST (7:30 PM IST) to discuss how this narrative is playing out in India today.
Deepika Bhardwaj is a filmmaker in India whose current project, Martyrs of Marriage, explores the “legal terrorism” inflicted on men by section 498A of IPC, a law which presumes a husband is guilty when charged by his wife: “Any woman in India can file this section against her husband, his parents and relatives … at any point of marriage (even after 22 years), get them arrested.”

Why Women Don’t Need To Earn The Same As Men
By Timmy Kennedy: International Women’s Day (March 8th in this year, 2015) has just passed, and one of the hottest topics was the gender pay gap. The fact that, on average, there is a 9.4% gap between what a woman earns compared to what a man earns, disgusts many. It paints a picture of a misogynistic society. Anything that paints such a picture will, of course, be something anybody with any form of interest in gender equality will jump all over. How, in this day and age, can a woman still earn less than a man?
Well, not only can I explain why, I’m also going to explain why it quite simply doesn’t matter. If anything, asking the question, “how much does the average woman earn in comparison to the average man?” does nothing but encourage gender inequality.
Warren Farrell posed a very interesting question when he wrote his book, Why Men Earn More: if men are truly paid more for the same standard of work as a female, why would anyone ever hire a man? It’s a question that, in my opinion, essentially debunks the myth that men earn more because, well, they are male.

Music And Men’s Issues: Domestic Discord, Contrition And Anita Baker’s “I Apologize”
By Ty Henry: As men in the Red Pill multiverse, we can fall into the trap of conflating the predictable outcomes of perverted incentive structures with congenital character flaws inherent in “the other.” While there are differences between men and women and yes, hypergamy is a natural force, it’s still important to recognize capacity for agency and accountability, and not be fallaciously reductionist in our outlook.
Of course, our popular culture reinforces said structures, whether it be the most influential female singer (and self-proclaimed feminist) of her generation promoting a caricatured manhood as the ideal:
…to other singers justifying relational vengeance in the form of larceny (Blu Cantrell’s “Hit Em Up Style”) to rationalizing infidelity (TLC’s “Creep”), to campaigns to end women’s prisons, there’s no shortage of messages telling women they can behave badly without suffering adverse consequences to themselves.
Of course, our popular culture reinforces said structures, whether it be the most influential female singer (and self-proclaimed feminist) of her generation promoting a caricatured manhood as the ideal:

A rant in the park

As men, whether we’re a Men’s Activist, or just Going you Own Way, or
a man otherwise lacking self hatred, it’s easy to recognize social
violence against ourselves when we look at feminism.
Even this simple observation will be met with shrieks that the definition of feminism is equality – and that anyone who doesn’t agree is a woman hating, evil, shrivelled penis, neck-bearded, rape apologist.
But we’re not using the dictionary as our guide, instead, we’re using our knowledge of the real world in which feminism is just one political camp’s extension of gynocentrism.

US Exerts Pressure On Israeli Regime For Palestinian State: Report
The Obama administration is putting further pressure on
the genocidal apartheid Israeli regime by showing that it is ready for a UN Security Council resolution
about the creation of a Palestinian state.
Press TV: The Wall
Street Journal reported Washington left open the “possibility of letting
the United Nations set a deadline for a Palestinian state.”
France is expected to introduce a measure setting a deadline for the establishment of a Palestinian state within two years, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said on Friday.
The US as a permanent member of the Security Council has repeatedly vetoed such resolutions during the past years.
However, White House press secretary Josh Earnest took a different tack on Friday.
