Geeze Henry,
I woke up to your post and thought 'Nah--it can't be--Enry's computer's infected or something, maybe someone spiked his Cheerios again...--bogus information. But slap me silly---they're trying to pull this one off! As seen below. I caught a July 6. 2010 link from Newsweek that's interesting:
The newsweek piece is a lengthily article and as we know, I never make long posts here, so there's a link below (Don't you love that popular new term 'Mancession'?) and this is a little 'snippet' from it:
Note that they've been 'gearing' up this Feminist--UN activity in South East Asia going back to at least 2008.
I looked at some economic figures and in the USA for sure, as well as most of the world in general, women have control of most of the world's money, same as it's always been. I guess that's not enough!
Perhaps we'll all be made to donate sperm if deemed 'worthy,' to allow procreation and then neutered according to law!
http://www.newsweek.com/2010/07/06/women-will-rule-the-world.htmlWhen historians write about the great recession of 2007–08, they may very well have a new name for it: the Mancession. It’s a term already being bandied about in the popular media as business writers chronicle the sad tales of the main victims of the recession: men. They were disproportionately represented in the industries hit hardest during the downturn, including financial services, manufacturing, and construction, and their higher salaries often put them first in the line of fire. Men are the victims of two thirds of the 11 million jobs lost since the recession began in 2007; in August 2009, when U.S. male unemployment stood at 11 percent (versus 8.3 for women), it was the largest unemployment gender gap in the postwar era. Those numbers have improved, a bit—new unemployment figures show men at 9.9 percent and women at 7.8—but not enough to stop Larry Summers, the president’s top economic adviser, from speculating recently, that “when the economy recovers, five years from now, one in six men who are 25 to 54 will not be working.â€

If they are lucky, they’ll have wives who can take care of them. American women are already the breadwinners or co-breadwinners in two thirds of American households; in the European Union, women filled 75 percent of the 8 million new jobs created since 2000

For the past three decades, women have seen the United Nations as a galvanizing force for our efforts to define a comprehensive global agenda for peace and security, human rights, gender equality, women's empowerment, poverty eradication and sustainable development. The UN reform process is important to women because we need the organizational structures, high level leadership and necessary resources to enable governments and the UN system to increase significantly their efforts to fulfill their promises on women's human rights, gender equality and women's empowerment.
