The State of the Male Nation

(Open Letter to the Prime Minister)

Dear Mr Luxon,

In your State of the Nation speech, you stated:

"All Kiwis, of course, have a right to support when times are tough. But with that right also comes responsibility."

In that case, women should have the same responsibilities as men, as well as the same rights.  At present, women have vastly more rights than men -- as well as having vastly fewer responsibilities.

1. Under the Official Information Act, could you please inform me what plans you have to give men equal rights with women?

2. Under the Official Information Act, could you please inform me what plans you have to give women equal responsibilities with men?

I note the following facts:

1. Your government still has a Ministry for Women, but no Ministry for Men;

2. Having a Ministry for Women gives Feminists a blank cheque to keep dreaming up more ways to privilege women and more ways to oppress men;

3. There has never been any formal governmental inquiry into whether a Ministry for Men was needed, or into whether a Ministry for Women was more needed than a Ministry for Men;

4. The Ministry for Women provides what it calls "gender analysis" to policy-makers.  This biases policy and legislation against men;

5. It claims that this analysis benefits men, as well as women, but that is clearly a lie;  On 11 April 2000, the then Minister of Women's Affairs admitted that her ministry was not about equity, but about improving women's lives.  See my webpage on Feminist Hypocrisy. 

6. I was once told by an employee of the Ministry of Women that "Men have never done anything for women!" See my webpage on The Willful Defamation and Oppression of Men.  Men have died and been mutilated in wars for women, men have given women the vote and men have then helped to give women the Ministry for Women;

7. Therefore your government is engaged in the deliberate, lying oppression of men;

8. A man who assaults a woman is liable to receive a greater legal penalty than a woman who assaults a man, because of section 194 of the Crimes Act 1961 (Assault on a child, or by a male on a female);

9. The Law Commission wanted to reform this Act, so that the penalty depended on the severity of the assault, rather than the gender of the perpetrator.  Judith Collins, the Minister of Justice at the time, refused to carry out this reform;

10. Now Judith Collins is the Minister of Defence and she may well declare war on somebody (apart from men), so that she can get men killed and mutilated by conscripting men (and no women);

11. The Crimes Act (section 204) prohibits female genital mutilation, but not male genital mutilation (circumcision);

12. According to a Ministry of Justice report called "Sentencing in New Zealand: a Statistical Analysis" (page 123), "Gender ‘is not in and of itself a justification for discriminating between offenders’ (Hall 1998, page B173-4). Yet, the results of the multivariate modelling show that females are more likely than males to receive community service, community programme or no sentence and less likely to receive a prison sentence, periodic detention or a monetary penalty."

13. You still have a Minister for the Prevention of Family and Sexual Violence.  The previous minister was Green Party MP, Marama Davidson, who stated, "I am a prevention violence minister [sic]. I know who causes violence in the world, it is white cis men. That is white cis men who cause violence in the world."  Apart from the fact that she is a liar and grossly sexist and racist, she is clearly unintelligent.  It is highly likely that any such ministry is also staffed by anti-White racists and anti-male sexists, of which New Zealand has a huge number.  There is a massive amount of research on female (including Lesbian) family violence -- some of which is New Zealand research.  See Professor Martin Fiebert's annotated bibliography, which shows that women are just as -- or more violent than -- men.

14. As far as sexual violence is concerned, leftist, female-dominated universities simply assume that sexual violence is something that men do to women and don't bother investigating female sexual violence.  If you don't investigate something, you know little or nothing about it, of course.  See the book by Myriam S. Denov, entitled "Perspectives on Female Sex Offending: A Culture of Denial", 2004, Aldershot, England: Ashgate. I have no doubt that your Ministry (or Board) for the Prevention of Family and Sexual Violence has predetermines the issue in the same way.

15. A woman once performed fellatio on me in a pub without warning and without asking for my permission.  That obviously constituted sexual assault.  But the Feminists created their publicity only about male sexual abuse, so she didn't think she had done anything wrong.  She even got angry with me for telling someone else about it!  And it took some years for me to realise that it was indeed a case of sexual assault;

16. Four women (two dentists, one waitress and one work colleague) have pressed their breasts against my head or against my arm.  I complained to the police about three of these, but they said they were too busy to do anything about it and that I had waited too long before complaining to them;

17. I know that hugging is very common nowadays, but I was not brought up to hug people.  One day, when meeting a woman for the first time, she wanted to hug me, but I said that I didn't do much hugging.  She said, "Well, I do!" and proceeded to hug me!  She was pulling rank, because women are the aristocracy in New Zealand -- men are just their slaves;

18. So it was perhaps not surprising that her toddler granddaughter -- who is also my granddaughter -- once got jealous that I was holding her younger sister and rushed at me, almost (but not quite) colliding with me, and then rushed away again.  She was not even told off by her parents;

19. Some years ago, a niece of mine rang me up out of the blue (despite the fact that we seldom met, and never discussed serious issues) and told me angrily that Women's Refuge people were not man-haters.  Then she hung up on me!  This is another example of female entitlement in New Zealand.  Up till that point in time, I am fairly sure that I had never called Women's Refuge people man-haters.  However, I have subsequently pointed out that Women's Refuge deliberately incite hatred against men, which implies that they themselves hate men;

20. Two of my sons attended Paraparaumu College, where some students fundraised by volunteering to be slaves for other students for a day.  Both male and female students were allowed to be slaves, but the female teachers informed the female students that they should not volunteer.  So the students at this school were, in effect, taught that it was OK for males to be slaves of females, but not vice versa;

21. One prominent businessman seems to have learnt this lesson all too well.  He donated money to Women's Refuge, without himself knowing anything about Family Violence.  When I pointed out, in correspondence, that he didn't know anything about Family Violence, he didn't deny it.  Instead, he visited one of my websites and then told me not to speak up in favour of men!

22. It is fantastic news that TV3's Newshub news and current affairs may be closing down!  Like TV One, it frequently gives Women's Refuge free publicity, by interviewing them whenever the topic of Family Violence comes up.  Women's Refuge is an anti-male organisation which defines Family Violence in an anti-male way, which influences lots of ignorant people in the business sector and elsewhere.

23. Likewise, Wendy Petrie and others on TV One used to (and maybe still do) give free publicity to the insane White Ribbon campaign.  It is insane, because it never states WHY there is a need to emphasise violence against women, as opposed to all sorts of violence.  It is probably because these people actually like violence against men, and only dislike violence when it is directed against women;

24. It is this mentality that lets Feminists claim they want equality with men, while only men ever get conscripted into the frontline in wartime -- as in the war between Ukraine and Russia at present.

25. Etcetera, etcetera!

Yours sincerely,

Peter Zohrab
