#MeToo
We Need a #MeToo Group ~ Anyone know if one has been started as well as an anti-racism group
The damage that these crimes do to women , men and children is unfathomable. For those of us who are strong enough to go on with allowing the feelings of hopelessness to NOT take us to suicide...we are lucky... some days are better than others.. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other.....

In his National Conservatism Conference keynote address, Missouri Republican Senator Josh Hawley recently stated, “Many men in this country are in crisis, and their ranks are swelling.” Hawley blames the left. As politicians often do, he speaks in broad strokes and oversimplifications. “The left’s attack on America leads directly to an attack on manhood.” Political misdirection is nothing new for Hawley or the Republicans.
On January 6, 2021, Hawley raised his fist to support Capitol insurrectionists. With presidential aspirations, the masculinity he supports threatened the Vice President and Congress with a noose, baseball bats, and firearms. They also assaulted police and left many dead. A year later, Congressional staff, from legislative aides to blue-collar workers, are still unnerved by the attack. And many are leaving jobs they once loved.
Men’s problems are diverse and replay over generations. Understanding is complex. Solutions run the gamut from Robert Bly’s attempts to reconnect old myths with boys’ development to blaming feminism. Just as women’s rights are under attack, the courts have been slow to recognize the value of fathers’ parental rights. Both men’s and women’s roles are under intense scrutiny, from the #MeToo movement to bitter backlashes against gender equality. Hawley’s words and actions do nothing to bring about change. Instead, he uses male disenfranchisement to enrage conservatives but offers no concrete solutions. He has no interest in bettering men’s lives. He simply wants to politicize them for his personal aspirations.
My father grew up in a violent family. My grandfather physically and sexually abused my grandmother. In the 1930s, she divorced him, and the court awarded her child support, but my grandfather refused to pay. It’s hard enough today for single mothers to raise a family. Back then, it was impossible. To survive, she had to remarry him. My father was not immune to this aggression. My grandparents sent him to military school to “straighten him out.” Only after her children were adults did my grandmother divorce her husband for the last time.
Dad didn’t follow in his father’s footsteps. But he never talked about his childhood, and it scarred him. He could lash out indiscriminately, often without rhyme or reason. I didn’t know where the line was, so I was always on edge. Once, after our obligatory father/son attendance at my elementary school’s sex education night, as we drove home and with no prologue, my father said to me, “If you ever touch your sister, I will kill you.” My father had just handed me my early inheritance. At eleven, I was too young to rationalize or question it. And we never talked about it again. It would take decades before I knew what to do with it. While my sister rebelled in her teens, my rebellion didn’t come until my 20s. I did what I was told because I feared my father’s wrath. It’s easy to see how I might have grown up and mirrored his behavior, but that’s not what happened.
As I grew older, I probed my father’s modus vivendi, discovering his secrets and his shame. I wanted to connect with him, but if I got too close, he’d retreat. I remember telling him, “Someday, you’re going to die, and we will never have talked.” We never did. But I learned how to deal with him and disarm his anger. And finally, I learned how to tell him how I would live my life. By that point, it didn’t matter if he understood. I no longer needed his approval. It only mattered that I was resolute and expressed myself without malice. I would not pass down this pattern to my family.
So, as a man with my own history, I have a stake in Senator Hawley’s definition of masculinity. I’m also trying to understand the conflicting ways we talk about gender. With men’s roles in constant flux, it is no simple task to make sense of them. Physically stronger and full of testosterone, nature conditioned us to fight predators, the elements, and other men. For many, that remains our prime duty. Will Smith felt the need to protect and defend his wife at the 2022 Academy Awards, slapping Chris Rock on stage after he made a lame joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. His duty? His testosterone? His stress? Or, as Denzel Washington warned, “At your highest moment, be careful. That’s when the devil comes for you”? Ms. Smith, more wisely, didn’t feel compelled to comment nor defend herself.
A recent study published by the British Journal of Psychology shows that men with high testosterone levels are more likely to engage in unethical behavior when competing with other men. Study authors Marcelo Vinhal Nepomuceno and Eric Stenstrom believe that “high testosterone men become angry and behave unethically to gain status and increase the likelihood of attracting women.” But we are also a sensitive lot for all our bravado, wasting our energy by hiding it from our families and friends.
Now in my 70s, I’ve seen significant improvements in gender equality over my lifetime. But it hasn’t been enough or universally accepted. Legalized abortion seems as close to extinction now as it’s ever been. Still, no one is holding men accountable for unwanted pregnancies. A close look at women’s lives requires the same for men. The spectrum of male behavior is nuanced—burrowed deep within our society’s zeitgeist. Politicians don’t like nuance. It muddies their message. Hawley uses a sledgehammer to solidify entrenched traditions, and men are caught in this tug-of-war.
China recently banned effeminate men from television. “Broadcasters must ‘resolutely put an end to sissy men and other abnormal esthetics,’ the [Chinese] TV regulator said, using an insulting slang term for effeminate men—niang pao, or literally, girlie guns.” Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro mocked his aides who wore masks by calling their protective gear “coisa de viado,” roughly translated “for fairies.” He thinks men’s masculinity can protect them from COVID.
Not only is this systematic tar pit an injustice, but it’s also a waste of our human capital. In 2014, the Congressional Budget Office reported that 16% of American men were incarcerated or jobless, an increase from 11% in 1980. The rate for minorities was much more significant than for Whites. So when we discuss masculinity, we can’t ignore race, education, culture, and poverty as essential factors. According to Psychology Today, “Mass shootings have tripled since 2011, with the majority carried out by young men, while young male suicide rates have increased fifty percent since 1994.”
While many attempt to create a language that clarifies and facilitates fruitful discussions, that same language can also serve as coded shorthand, allowing us to jump to conclusions. “Toxic masculinity” is the latest phrase for men’s anger and estrangement. Men can indeed be toxic, both to women and to each other. But not all men act that way. To promote those discussions, ask us questions about what we mean, especially on social media, where anonymity hides the context of our lives. “Why did you say that?” offers us a chance to explain (or reveal the misogyny we might defend).
Howard J. Ross, the author of Everyday Bias, says, “Learning to slow down decision-making, especially when it affects other people, can help reduce the impact of bias.” Our biases make us prone to reaction instead of reflection. In his book, Thinking, Fast and Slow, social psychologist Daniel Kahneman looked at how we make these decisions. According to Kahneman, we use two different systems to come to our conclusions. One is fast, automatic, and impulsive: full of impressions, intuition, and emotions. This is precisely what happens on social media. The second is slow and more considered and serves as our self-control. Kahneman writes, “Every human being has had the experience of not telling someone to go to hell.” We’ve become a reactive nation. Slowing down would make for more valuable discourse.
After a Facebook friend mentioned they were anxious, I suggested finding ways to calm down might be wise. Women immediately chastised me for telling a woman to calm down. To be honest, I didn’t even know my Facebook friend was a woman. Her online name was a gender-neutral “nom de plume.” Someone was upset, and that concerned me. I crossed a line without even knowing it.
Sometimes, I act like a “typical guy” despite my best efforts. I laugh—I’m still a work in progress, even at my age. Men can be prone to thoughtless mansplaining with women and other men (it’s part of our competitive, know-it-all nature). But that’s not what I was doing here. I backed off, not even attempting to explain. Cancel culture is indiscriminate and swift. We often talk over each other without listening. Anger in the absence of context is harmful. When groups gang up on individuals, it can be debilitating. Both men and women need to slow our reactions down to better gauge our responses.
After watching a recent Saturday Night Live sketch called “Man Park,” I lamented my lack of close male friends. This isolation has been especially hard for me during the pandemic. In the sketch, women come home to their boyfriends only to be inundated with non-stop chatter after their partners’ days alone. The women decide to take their BFs to the Man Park, where they can find social interaction and comradery. It takes a concerted effort for men to develop friendships, and they’re often more competitive than supportive. Robert Bly would probably approve of man parks, and I see franchise opportunities.
In reaction to this SNL sketch, Dr. Avrum Weiss wrote in “The High Cost of Loneliness,” boys start out feeling as connected in their friendships as girls do. But as they grow, they neglect personal relationships to pursue external success. This has been true for me. And many of my present relationships come about from being part of a couple. Weiss says, “Eighty percent of successful suicides are men, and one of the leading contributing factors is loneliness.” It’s as important a risk factor to longevity as exercise, smoking, and obesity.
Look at how we treat our veterans. We praise them for their strength and heroism on the battlefield, yet we do little for their PTSD when they return home. And, as women take on traditionally male roles, they encounter the same thing. Society often judges both women and men harshly when they express cross-gender behavior. Whatever our genders, our evolutions are intrinsically linked. Whether or not we like it, we’re in this together.
Like COVID vaccinations and mask mandates, Josh Hawley has politicized manhood, pointing to the left as a threat to men. It’s an oversimplification that does none of us any justice. The culmination of his argument is clear: “[The left wants] to define the traditional masculine virtues—things like courage, and independence, and assertiveness—as a danger to society.” This is nothing more than toxic propaganda. These are valuable assets in both men and women; the left has no interest in replacing them. If you’re concerned about men’s lives, invest in our empathy, not in political opportunism.
But there is room to reimagine what it means to be a man. And men need to take the lead. We need to create viable alternatives to the “good ole boy” network (often based on financial success). Nurturing the values that allow us to be more sensitive to others and attentive to our needs would help free ourselves from this unrealistic paradigm. Government and companies can help by creating policies that encourage us to spend more time with our families, like paid paternity leave. This would support new patterns for a successful life. Josh Hawley would find this ridiculous. Evolution will be slow given the multitudes who live by his contorted view.
Despite inroads into gender equality, men still value their fortitude above all—not only physical strength but the wherewithal to surmount any obstacle. This exacts an enormous price in our daily lives, and few fathers offer, let alone know any alternatives. Fewer talk to their sons about their passions and emotions, and peer pressure silences us.
Senator Hawley, our country’s founders, handed down a document that is a blueprint for how we live our lives as Americans. Your words offer no such plan. Instead, they perpetuate outdated stereotypes about men that cannot be sustained in the 21st century. They hurt rather than help us live our best lives. I’ve never forgotten what my father passed down to me. That legacy will go no further. And neither should yours.
Josh Hawley blames the left for men’s problems. Men like Josh Hawley are the problem.

Manif contre les violences faites aux femmes
République, samedi 20 novembre 2021
I met my alter ego in the mirror (again). This time he was wearing a long coat and dark glasses (in a bathroom...ahem, hello?!). He told me that I was living in a dreamworld and that he could rescue me. I immediately realized that this was a heavy drug-user. And indeed he offered me some pills of wich I chose a blue one. This was definately a sedative. I simply fell asleep and woke up this morning, not sure if I have dreamed up the whole thing. My feeling tells me, that this was not the last time we met....

all the books I want to read and all the friends I want to see. John Burroughs

האמנות של מירית בן נון מתקיימת בתוך ומעבר למציאות.
היא מתרחקת מהמציאות באמצעות צבעוניות אגרסיבית צפופה שחושפת עדות פנימית אודות קיום מאויים של נשים.
הקווים, הנקודות והצורות לא משחזרים עובדות אלא מדגישים את המטען המיוחד של התמודדות רגשית.
מירית בן נון מפגינה רוח מרד ומנסה לגעת בדברים לא באמצעות שלמות אלא תוך חיפוש אחר ההבעה והביטוי שלהם.
היא חוקרת זהות אישית ומנסה להגדיר באמצעותה את האמנות הראויה לה ובעזרתה להמחיש את העולם ואת טבעה של התרבות האנושית.
היא מתמקדת בממד ההבעתי בגלל החשיפה שמקנה הרגע הבלתי נשלט שמשפיע כה רבות על החיים בעולם גלובלי מגוון המשתנה במהירות .
השיח בין העולם הפנימי למציאות המתהווה הוא היפר-אקטיבי ומחולל אצל בן נון רצף אינסופי של עבודות.
מעומק התחושות, החלומות, החרדות וההבעות עולות משמעויות קיום נוקשות ומסעירות שעיקרן מבטא אי-שקט וחוסר הסתגלות.
We had went for a walk the other night and passed by this shrub on the way home. The light had hit it just right through the clouds just enough to catch your eye.
I hope you enjoy it.

Donald Moffett’s “He Kills Me” is a particularly damning critique of political apathy toward people suffering from AIDS during the time. In Moffett’s original, an image of a Day-Glo target is paired with an image of Ronald Reagan stamped with the titular words. Here it’s been installed as a step and repeat wallpaper, at once both amplifying its message and all but guaranteeing that numerous selfies will be taken in front of it.

The exhibit also explores the political and social issues of the decade, including the AIDS crisis and the Cold War.
Artist Donald Moffett’s piece “He Kills Me,” displays alternating images of former President Ronald Reagan and hypnotic spirals behind a TV screen that shows a video of people, while the title “People with AIDS” is displayed.

“He Kills Me” (1987) by Donald Moffett, a poster originally designed for use in protests of the federal government’s inaction during the AIDS epidemic of the late 1980s, exemplifies this theme. The poster features an image of a smiling Ronald Reagan and the words “He Kills Me” in a simple, blocky font. Moffett uses bold colors, an aesthetic reminiscent of contemporary advertising, to make the poster attractive to the public. The brightness of the design is a stark contrast to its message.

Manif contre les violences faites aux femmes
République, samedi 20 novembre 2021
Inspired by the #metoo movement and a quote from an article on ESPN by Allison Glock.
"To be a girl is to be besieged with unsolicited evaluations of your physical person from your earliest consciousness. To feel the weight and itch of them on you like wet fur. Before there are even words to put to it, girls carry the knowledge that their body is something for others -- to approve, to disdain, to rate, to take, to discard. In time, most of us begin to execute these evaluations ourselves, in our heads and mirrors, a constant merciless self-negation, a death by inches. Well before I was 14, I'd already heard the expression "a perfect 10" from the boys at my school. Though I was still young, I sensed the expectation and impossibility behind the language."

Chia tay không có nghĩa là ngừng yêu! Chia tay chỉ là bắt đầu cho một sự bắt đầu mới.
Có người bảo chia tay là khoảnh khắc nặng nề nhất của cuộc đời, nhất là chia tay người mình yêu thương. Nhưng nếu chia tay là sự giải thoát cho cả hai thì tại sao không chia tay, để bắt đầu cho cuộc sống mới?! Chia tay không phải là ngừng yêu thương. Cũng như thất bại chỉ là sự trì hoãn thành công, là thành công đến muộn mà thôi. Có hai người rất yêu thương nhau, nhưng rồi cuộc sống chẳng trọn vẹn như người ta vẫn muốn, mối bất hòa vì cuộc sống kéo họ ra xa nhau và thế là họ chia tay. Nhưng họ vẫn là những người yêu nhau nhất trên cuộc đời này, chỉ cần biết còn yêu nhau là đủ.
Có thể không còn đi chung một con đường...
Có thể không còn bên nhau sẻ chia bất cứ lúc nào...
Có thể không còn tựa vai nhau khi buồn...
Có thể không còn siết chặt tay nhau trên đường đời...
Có thể không còn chung một tương lai, mơ về một mái ấm...
Nhưng điều ấy không có nghĩa là họ không:
Lo lắng cho nhau.
Quan tâm nhau.
Giúp đỡ nhau.
Và yêu nhau...
Đừng nghĩ sự chia tay là điều gì buồn bã, chỉ là chút hương vị của cuộc đời, là chút sắc màu cho cuộc sống này... Thà chia tay mà trong tim có nhau, còn hơn ở bên nhau mà lạc lõng, xa lạ. Thà chia tay mà vui vẻ cùng nhau, còn hơn ở bên nhau mà dằn vặt lẫn nhau. Thà chia tay mà gặp nhau bình thản, còn hơn ở bên nhau mà cứ tránh mặt nhau. Thà chia tay mà cố gắng sống tốt vì nhau, còn hơn ở bên nhau mà ngày càng tệ đi.
Chia tay không phải là bi quan, nhưng tôi không khuyến khích ai đang hạnh phúc mà chia tay.
Vì chia tay ắt sẽ phải đau đớn!

Manif contre les violences faites aux femmes
République, samedi 20 novembre 2021
While scanning old vintage 1940's era Life Magazines for advertisements, I came across this "article" that for some reason just seemed to reinforce how far morals have changed over the last 80 years.
I especially like the caption on the top left photo - "...an' I said, who do you think you are... a casting director?"
Yikes! What were once virtues are now vices, indeed.
Here is the text of the article in case you have difficulty reading the photo:
"Out of self protection, if for no other reason, Hollywood usually takes itself very seriously. But every once in a while, when it thinks nobody is looking, the citadel of the cinema relaxes and has a fine time kidding the pants off itself.
"Such a time came recently when the Warner Club had its annual dinner dance at the Biltmore Bowl in hollywood, for almost all the people who work in the Warner Bros. studio. For one evening, everybody from script girls to the Messrs. Warner were one big happy family, engaged in the pleasant family practice of making fun of themselves. Keynote of the evening, which included acts by stars, was the printed program, subtitled 'Snickers on the Flickers', whole sections of which are reproduced here.
"Like Hollywood, the program makes the most of Sex. The beautiful face of the Little Theatre Discovery below is never once revealed, although most of the rest of her is extravagantly shown. Studio cuties strip down to dishabille to pose for joke pictures. Important difference between It, Glamor, Oomph and S.
A are defined. Another feature of the program is a review of the "Picture of the Month", which tells the story of Curly Schmaltz (Paul Muni) who sets out to seek his long-lost sister, Libido Schmaltz. After traveling all over the world in many disguises and encountering many adventures, Curly finally winds up in Paris where he forgets all about Libido and stops looking for her."
Here's a sneak preview of the latest fashion trend touted to be stylishly chic, incredibly employable, and absolutely essential for a woman who has her sights set on being hired for a high level, "policy setting position" in today's ultra competitive Capitol Hill job market. Notice that being nude or nearly so is highly advisable if interviewing for GOP Senate and House aide positions with male legislators. It epitomizes the real meaning of "governmental transparency" in the current White House.

In the “Memento” section of “What Absence Is Made Of,” the framed black-and-white portraits of eight smiling children from a 1939 Parisian Purim class are surrounded by bare lightbulbs and trailing wires in “Monument” (1989) by French artist Christian Boltanski.
The fate of these Jewish children during World War II and the Holocaust are unknown, creating some uncertainty about any sense of loss.

Gianni Jetzer, the curator for What Absence Is Made Of, assembled several familiar works from the collection, including Christian Boltanski’s haunting “Monument” (1989), which memorializes the Holocaust without naming the victims in the photographs he uses.
Sexual harassment is bad enough. But the power and control behind it make it an ongoing nightmare. Even after it's over, it's easy to blame ourselves—a mix of anger and self-doubt. Victims (and, yes, they are victims of predatory behavior) fear retaliation and, even more important, that no one will believe them. This is the silence that has protected abusers for decades.
With revelations of Kevin Spacey's and Harvey Weinstein's serial abuse, the dam suddenly has given way. There is a new scarlet letter adorning the likes of Charlie Rose, Al Franken, Matt Lauer, ad nauseum. But, why now? To that we owe a debt of "gratitude" to Donald Trump. His unabashed misogyny, coupled with the blindness of his followers to his morality has unleashed a force, a strong feminist force in our culture. Millions of women and men around the world protested his behavior the day after Trump's inauguration. From that moment, women empowered with a shared experience (both the reality of sexual abuse as well as the gathering of like minds) vowed to take control of their lives. In addition, many men, not only supported them but took a stand against the patriarchy—the "good ole boy's club"—that has affected all of us. The swiftness of these changes is both empowering and scary.
Groups formed to encourage women to speak out and to take power. Pantsuit Nation is full of testimonies by women who decided to run for office in their towns and cities. And, this fall, they won big. The backlash against men like Trump is intensifying. Finally, our Congress has been outed in the most profound way. In 1995, it enacted the Congressional Accountability Act (CAA). The law's impetus was to make members of Congress accountable to the very labor laws they passed (and had exempted themselves from). In addition, it addressed sexual harassment by legislators and staff. Until the CAA, there was absolutely no path for victims to seek redress.
But, while the CAA offers the abused a way forward, the process is long and forces accusers to attend 30 days of counseling before moving to mediation. There is no counseling for the alleged perpetrator. And, most astounding, if a Congressman or staff is found guilty, settlements for that abuse are paid by taxpayers, not the abusers, whose identity is not made public. Over the past 20 years, the Office of Compliance has paid out over $17.2 million of taxpayers' money to settle 268 claims.
One of the most hidden problems in American culture has finally reached the tipping point. For that, I thank thousands of women who found the courage and the fortitude to speak out, support others, seek political office, and, most importantly, take back control of their lives. Yet, a recent Politico poll shows that partisanship is still a deciding factor whether the public finds sexual harassment claims credible. While Democrats are more likely to believe these claims, whether the accused is a Democrat or Republican, Republicans are less like to believe them if they are leveled at a member of the GOP. This isn't over yet.
It's time for the rest of us to take responsibility for the fear and manipulation men have used to control others. It's time to keep our hands to ourselves!
