LETTER OF THE DAY - Women in control as men sit on the margins
published: Monday | March 10, 2008

THE EDITOR, Sir:

While extending hearty congratulations to Paula Llewellyn for her meritorious high-grade acquisition of the post of director of public prosecutions, it is now obvious to all that the justice system, and, by extension, the legal profession, for better or for worse, is now substantially controlled by women. Former Chief Justice Lensley Wolfe, on his swearing-in, noted that there could be no peace without justice. Sir, our justiciable rights are in the hands of our women, our future is substantially in the hands of women, the male population has dropped the ball and the females are trying to save them.

Sir, I am an unrepentant male who sees disaster, the future enslavement and the deepening of the marginalisation of the male population by women. If one goes to the graduation at the Norman Manley Law School, the medical school, universities, teachers' colleges, HEART training institutions, then on to the offices around the country, on the buses, on the street, or in the latest high-end vehicles, one sees that women are moving on up. On the way, however, you see the males idly carousing, many with bleached faces, plaited hair, tight pants, kneading their palms in preparation for the next 'high-grade' marijuana spliff, in preparation for graduation to the General Penitentiary, the morgue or the grave.

It is time for action on 'Men at Risk', as detailed in a book by Professor Errol Miller. In order to save mankind, men must not only see themselves as penile objects designed to give pleasure, but as human beings who should be well-rounded and socialised to contribute to the maintenance, progress and development of the society.

Male movement needed

The decadent, destructive badman, gunman, rent-a-man, murderous subculture must end and our boys must be made to know that this culture is going nowhere. The plea to men must be: 'Men, do for yourselves what women have done for themselves'. This is about forming a men's liberation movement - a strategy to nurture our males back to their true position, designed and directed by true males; no gays, sissies or degenerates allowed, and without any taint of corruption.

More males must be recruited to all-boys' schools headed by males only. Parents should also try to send their boys to boys-only schools. If one should take a look at society, one would notice that most of our prime ministers and leading politicians attended all-boys' schools.

I am, etc.,
