[history]
The price tag for decades of gender warfare is usually expressed in general terms -- for example, through data-filled studies that reflect how "boys" are slighted in education. The ordeal of Michael Wright -- a student at Oklahoma University at Normal -- captures the human factor. And it leads me to a question: What does the devil look like?

Far from appearing as a hideous demon, (the devil) is the average-looking person who walks into a room and shakes your hand with a smile. By the time he leaves, the standards of decency of everyone within that room have been lowered ever so slightly.
Sounds like the 9 (or however many there are) Dim dwarves...

The young "Maxine Waters" in the making should be charged with filing a false police report. A true victory for the hitlery dims.

These days, if you are a man and go out of your way to help either a woman or a child, you are an idiot. That's the point to which "feminism" and "liberalism" have brought us to.

That is a terriffic point! Did the plaintiff get charged for filing a false report?

...This is a sad story.
...I have my own annual sad story coming up too.Just before dark on Halloween night I will be going over to my son's house to visit with his family for a few hours. That's not the sad part of course. What's sad is that I will be making that visit for my own protection.
...I will be alone at home otherwise on Halloween night and just cannot take the chance of any false accusations being made about me. Many parents send their young children "trick or treating" without an adult escort.
...Sad too because I love interacting with children. As a 58 year old man I don't have that simple pleasure any more.

"the plaintiff get charged for filing a false report"
...Rarely prosocuted. They don't want to "discourage" anyone from reporting "crimes" because of the fear of being charged themselves if their charges don't stand up.

This is the literal meaning of the Greek 'diabalos', from which 'devil' is derived, 'falsely accusing, slanderous, calumnious'.
[Definition from abridged Liddell and Scott, can't find unabridged one. You wouldn't think I could lose such a big book...]

The female student bypassed the university and went straight to the local police
with the "allegation" that Michael "had looked up her number" -- albeit in an open directory.
And some American women wonder why American males will go as far as Russia or
gawd-knows-where to look for a wife.

That is the pretty much the definition I heard recently on the radio.
Can't remember if it was from Chuck Swindoll or John MacArthur (both pretty
reliable sources on that stuff).
