Another million dollars for women

August 31, 2010 by Walter Schneider.

FYI:

Recipient Name: Alberta Council of Women’s Shelters
Location: Edmonton, Alberta
Date: 2009-12-02
Value: $1,000,000.00
Type: Contribution
Purpose: This three-year project will bring together provincial / territorial shelter organizations across Canada to work to improve the access to and quality of services for women who are in abusive situations, with a focus on Aboriginal, immigrant and rural women. The project will coordinate the national exchange and implementation of proven, promising, and innovative practices and service delivery models across Canada, through the establishment of a national network, including a strategy and action plan to link women’s shelters across Canada. The project will also pilot, implement and evaluate one proven practice across Canadian shelters. By establishing a strong national voice, shelters will be able to act together to identify and effectively address their common issues and goals. Their work will be carried out in collaboration with stakeholders, including government departments, community-based service providers, and women who are victims of family violence.

In contrast, there are no government-funded shelters for battered men and “their” children, no funding for men’s issues, but men have much shorter average life expectancies.  Men comprise the vast majority of serious or fatal job injuries, the vast majority of heart attack victims and receive far less attention in gender-specific medical research.

Still, the all-pervasive propaganda campaign that alleges that women are victims of men’s oppression marches on…

Wanting a normal, stable, heterosexual relationship

Hey my name is [not shown] and I just wanted to thank you for your website. I only recently discovered it and I’m happy and proud there are people out there who are trying to redeem something from this crap we’re in as men.

I’m only 19 years old but I already see how we’ve been sold a lie and everything normal and stable is being destroyed. Unlike most guys I know and see, I want a partner and family sometime in the near future, but I find it difficult and frustrating when I go out and see amongst the groups of young women who debauch themselves and act like sluts.

Luckily though, most of my close friends want what I want, both male and female, and in some ways I find it relieving that there are some out there who wish for a normal, stable, heterosexual relationship.

Thanks again

Response by F4L: Thanks for the thumbs-up.

I probably don’t have to tell you any of this, but just in case you want to have a check-sheet that you can also give to some of your friends, these ideas may help you to find the right woman to share your life with.  It takes a bit of common sense and open eyes.  You have more than enough of that.

Messages like yours convince me that I have not wasted a good portion of my life and resources with writing about such things.

All the best,

Walter
