It is a bit of a pointless day, though its good to use for highlighting men's issues such as testicular cancer, male depression and domestic abuse against males.

Pah.... I thought you were a feminist. You shouldn't be interested in men's struggles!

:laugh:

I actually have personal experience with this, both me and Gav had kids before we met, thankfully me and my ex were able to sort things out between ourselves regarding our daughter without ever having to go to court but Gavin had a really tough time and the courts were extremely biased. I think it's a matter of laws not being updated to change with how the times have changed and how parents roles have changed too

Post of the thread :clap1:

Except there is... Nov 19th, he wanted a day to discuss mens issues in parliament, but couldn't be bothered to follow through on his proposal to do that.

**** this!I want the door holding open for me!I like cheap gifts from the petrol station too.Feckin bitches.

Seriously though.I agree with him.If feminism really is about gender equality then there should also be a day to highlight mens issues such prostate cancer,male suicide,violence against men etc and it's not for a woman politician to mock it and laugh at it.She'd probably get her knickers in a right knot if a male politician did that in response to womens day.

Time of the month is it love?...

I don't even like Jess Phillips, but she's mocking him because she knows h couldn't give a hoot about mens day..His whole agenda was highlighting there wasn't one.

He was given the opportunity to create one, he didn't.
