CNN asked Caitlyn Jenner, a biological male, to supply a quote for its celebration of "International Women's Day."


For its March 8th International Women's Day discussion, CNN asked women around the world: "What single thing would you change to improve gender equality where you are?" One of those asked to contribute was former Olympic champion, Kardashian TV cast member, and, biological man, Caitlyn Jenner.

The cabler invited celebrities, athletes, politicians, businesswomen, and activists to offer their pearls of wisdom about the day meant to praise the contribution of women across the world.

Comment: "What single thing would you change to improve gender equality where you are?" That is a very difficult question to answer in a crazy world that is no longer sure about what is a man and what is a woman. One thing is certain: men and women are not something people choose to be. Gender is biologically determined before birth - not something that society 'constructed' as postmodernists would like to think.


Question

Toxic masculinity: A valid concept?

On the dangers of pathologizing manhood
toxic masculinity
The two fundamental objectives in the evolutionary game of life are to first survive (natural selection) and then to mate (sexual selection). For sexually reproducing species including humans, evolution has endowed males and females with universal mating preferences that map onto sex-specific recurring challenges faced by each sex during our evolutionary history. This is profoundly obvious to anyone with a grade 8 level understanding of human biology and human psychology.

Female fiddler crabs and hens prefer males with extravagantly large claws and tails respectively. Ewes (female rams) will mate with the ram that wins the brutal intrasexual head-butting contest. They reward targeted aggression by granting sexual access. Needless to say, there are innumerable other examples of sexual selection that I might describe but I suspect that you get the general gist. Are rams exhibiting toxic masculinity? Are female fiddler crabs succumbing to antiquated notions of masculinity as promulgated by the crab patriarchy?

Woman jailed for complaining about cop husband on Facebook

Anne King
In yet another federal civil rights lawsuit, the American taxpayer will likely foot the bill for the unconscionable actions of a few uneducated and unscrupulous police officers. This time, the police officer decided to arrest his ex-wife for "criminal defamation" of character, for Facebook posts she made which he, obviously, didn't like.

The only problem is that criminal defamation was ruled unconstitutional in Georgia over 30 years ago! Worse yet, court papers reveal an earlier accusation that Officer Corey King used his badge to coerce his ex-wife into having post-divorce sex with him in order to keep her out of jail!

The lawsuit was filed on the 19th of January, 2017. Anne King is suing her ex-husband, Officer King, and fellow officer and investigator Trey Burgamy for violating her first and fourth amendment rights to free speech and unreasonable search, seizure, and arrest, as well as malicious prosecution, false arrest, and civil conspiracy. She's suing both men, who are Washington County, Georgia police officers, for an unspecified amount of money to be determined by the court.

The lawsuit is set to be settled Thursday, March 8, 2018.

After an interviewer attacks right-wing politician Marine Le Pen about posting IS images, she hits out and exposes the media's hypocrisy.

The journalist asks Le Pen frequently if she regrets posting the pictures, because children could have seen them as well.

"Who published the photos of the little boy dead on the beach?" Asks Le Pen. "Could they not have been seen by children also?" She adds that journalists show bloody images from war-torn countries as well "because when it bleeds it leads and the journalists are happy", she says.

Campus feminism's war on women

feminist rally
At a time when the majority of American college students are female-currently 57 percent of all students-higher education's conversation surrounding women's rights is largely dominated by modern feminist ideology. Roughly 63 percent of female students identify as feminists, and while no similar statistic is available for female faculty or staff members, most likely an even higher percentage of them identify as such.

On the surface, feminist ideals seem to have the good of all women in mind: After all, who would characterize him or herself as opposed to women's "freedom" and "equality"?

Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf
The lawless anti-American Oakland Mayor, Libby Schaaf is busy supporting and fighting for illegals.

Schaaf is endangering American citizens by issuing public warnings to criminals regarding ICE raids.

Now, to make matters worse, Schaaf is proudly announcing she'd be happy to go jail for her criminal illegals.

Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who has been an outspoken opposer of President Donald Trump's immigration policies, announced she would be willing to go to jail to defend her sanctuary city.

Ukrainians were over-consuming gas when it was being delivered by Russia, says Ukraine's Naftogaz chief

The Ukrainians were clearly over-consuming gas during periods when Russia's Gazprom was supplying it, Naftogaz CEO said, days after Gazprom terminated its contract with the Ukrainian company and new gas shortages were revealed.

Speaking at the CERAWeek annual energy conference in Houston, Texas, Andrey Kobolyev claimed that Ukraine had become a "victim of a vicious circle" of Russian gas consumption. "We had giant and ineffective consumption," he said, adding that "Ukraine used six times as much gas as any European country" if one takes into account how much gas one household spent on a per-square-meter basis.

The Ukrainian energy company head then, predictably, went on to blame "populist politicians, who were enjoying strong support from Russia" for such a state of affairs. At the same time, he admitted that the Ukrainian households bought natural gas for a reduced cost that accounted for just five percent of its real market cost, before Naftogaz de facto ceased buying gas from Gazprom. That did not stop him from calling this fact just another "reason for excessive consumption."

Busting Western media lies: Putin is stunningly popular with voters, solid turnout expected for Russian presidential election

Russian elections 2018
During the Soviet era, the common joke in the west was that since the Soviet Union only had one candidate for General Secretary (a.k.a. President) of the country, we could call the election with only a few ballots counted. Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, though, many in the West remain perplexed by two factors in the Russian Federation that are very different than in the West: the stunning popularity of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and the high voter turnout rate in Russia. Surely, the West says, this is something that is influenced upon the people of Russia by the Kremlin apparatchik. It just cannot be real, goes the line from many in the West.

Well... it is real.

This is just an example of people trying to talk about something they know nothing about. In the present day experience of life in Russia, I see absolutely nothing coercive about the election campaign at all, and I live here, so I would see it if there were anything to report.

Tiny Irish town forced to take hundreds of migrants, locals fear being called racist

A resident of a tiny Irish town having its population increased by a third by a new migrant centre has said Ireland has become a "slave state" of the European Union (EU) and its immigration policies, leaving locals helpless.

"We don't know where these people are going to be from. They won't tell us what countries they're from. What religion they're from," said Michael Walsh.

He said the 300-strong rural community of Lisdoonvarna could be radically changed by such a large and sudden influx, and that many concerned locals were fearful of accusations of racism if they questioned it.

US town where guns are required has had only 1 murder in 6 years, CNN admits

CNN admitted in a report on March 6, 2018, that a Georgia town requiring gun ownership has only seen one murder in six years and maintains a violent crime rate of less than two percent.

CNN reports that Kennesaw, Georgia, adopted an ordinance in 1982 requiring the head of every household to "maintain a firearm."

CNN suggested the law requiring gun ownership is not actually enforced, but it simultaneously reported that the town of Kennesaw has only witnessed one murder in the past six years. In other words, just the common knowledge that guns are in the hands of law-abiding citizens appears to restrain the actions of criminals.
