The Discriminated Sex

A quote from the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten, 7 August 2007

The [Norwegian] Minister of Children and Equality Karita Bekkemellem announced the 32 members of the so-called Men's panel Monday [...] [The panel has been] set up by Bekkemellem to introduce a public debate on men's rights. Men are falling behind in the education system, rarely get custody over children after divorce, and face other health risks than women, the minister argued.

The Men's panel will discuss these issues and more, and will advise the Government on the drafting of a forthcoming white paper on men and equality, due next summer. [...]

"This is to put focus on men's lack of rights. It is about time that men themselves enter the debate. Women cannot do that for them," Bekkemellem told Aftenposten.

Don't get fooled again

You don't think she means rights for you, do you? How much do you want to bet that the "mens rights" she's talking about are the rights that immigrant men have lost under Norwegian law (you know...the right to beat your wife or rape a slut who's walking about without a male relative).

Those socialists keep pulling the wool over your eyes and you keep falling for it.

I'll bet a family farm that there is not a single Swedish Muslem among all those wise patrons of the sports pub who were elected to take part in a 'public debate'.

First, local Muslems will never go out and drink spirits in the public, second, they are not sissified Swedish members of 'Late People's Princes Fun Club". On the contrary.

Excuse the question to the OP, but are we supposed to relate somehow to those twits? Show some compassion? Send a check?
