Sissy-phean life
A sissy-phean life, is a life spent trying to change a woman's view about you, or women's views about men in general.
The purpose of women’s perceptions about men, is that men are seen to fall short of women's expectations. If necessary, the game will be changed, and new standards created for you to fall short of. It isn't going to happen.
Derivation: In Greek mythology, Sisyphus was punished by the gods, and condemned to spend his life trying to roll a huge rock up a steep hill, but before he reached the top of the hill, the rock always escaped him and he had to begin again. The absolute frustration of this existence was intended as part of the punishment.
If this is the life you are living, you are in deep trouble.
Men should be looking for different ways to have a family. As many men find, it's much more enjoyable to live alone with your children, work, and do all the domestic activities, than it is being badgered constantly by partners and tax funded agencies about "how little men do in a marriage".

Super Delusion
Australian men have gone along with the Government's superannuation agenda. The Government promotes superannuation heavily - you are providing for your future after you stop working. But in reality you don't get much choice - payments are compulsorily deducted from your salary, and other payments are encouraged through tax concessions.
A current estimate of total superannuation assets is $1,200 billion, and growing at 10 to 20% per year.
This is probably about 20% of total private wealth - i.e. $6,000 billion.
Assume about 70% of this is in the hands of couples - i.e. $4,200 billion.
About 30% of this will end up under the control of the divorce industry and the Family Court - i.e. $1,260 billion. And this ignores any future growth. Most of this will be taken away from men using outdated concepts and prejudiced methodologies.
The size of the amount that will fall under the control and discretion of the divorce industry, even without future growth, is equivalent to:
- 4,345 times the $290 million that AWB paid to Iraqis in the oil for food scandal. AWB was investigated in the Cole Inquiry, and received daily front-page coverage by the media. Farmers' money is important.
- 237 times the $5.3 billion in debt left by the HIH collapse. HIH was investigated by a Royal Commission under Justice Owen, and received daily front-page coverage by the media. Investors' money is important.
The last Parliamentary Inquiry into family breakdown excluded property settlements. Why isn't this money important?
The last Inquiry found problems with the way child custody and child support was being assessed. Men's complaints that they were being discriminated against were found to be true. Does anyone really think there aren't similar problems with property settlements?

Vicarious existence
Men and fathers now live a vicarious existence where they are defined by women’s perceptions of how men are, or how men should be. Women’s views about men control many aspects of men’s lives such as:
- men’s relationships with their own children,
- men’s relationships with their own families and friends,
- the policies of various tax funded bodies towards men and fathers.
Men and fathers need a philosophical change in how they see themselves. The way forward is for men to reclaim their own existence.
In particular, men should stop listening to women, and stop accepting women's definitions of men. Women's definitions of men are a lot about women, but very little to do with men and fathers.
Taking these definitions on board, or even trying to change women's views of men and fathers, is a sissy-phean life - it isn't going to happen.
Instead men should listen to other men, and to their children. Men should define themselves by how their children see them, and how their children want them to be.
It is important for men and fathers to have direct relationships with others, instead of vicarious relationships that are controlled and regulated by women. Men and fathers should reclaim direct relationships with:
- their children
- their own birth families
- their own friends, particularly other men,
- Government and tax-payer funded agencies.

When numbers count
Numbers count when they can be used as a dicktation test to provide a lower level of opportunity to men.
Under the Sex Discrimination Act, it is illegal to discriminate against a women. In employment, this means a solitary female employee in a huge male work force, is provided with the same training, opportunity and facilities as the men.
The Sex Discrimination Act was written this way deliberately, to stop people thinking about numbers. One woman employee, or even the prospect of one woman employee, was enough to require a complete overhaul of processes and facilities. The same level of service and opportunity is to be provided for everyone - by law.
However, tax funded agencies allow themselves a very different approach when it comes to men's opportunities and support services. Then numbers become all important.
"We can't do anything for men, because we don't know how many men are effected". However, there is never any indication of how many men need to be effected, or any interest in finding out how many men actually are effected.
The point of this game is to find doubt about the number of men, so services don't have to be provided. Doubt itself is sufficient to exclude men.
A variation of this game is to suggest that men may require a different type of service. This method suggests analysis is needed before services can be provided to men. But in reality, this is another dicktation test to prevent men's access to services. The analysis isn't done, or if it is, it is only to find more dicktation tests, so men can continue to be excluded.
Wimdrassas
Wimdrassas are tax-funded, fundamentalist schools teaching anti-male ideology, attached to various Australian Universities.
At Wimdrassas, novitiates are indoctrinated with prejudices, myopic analyses, and readings from fundamentalist anti-male texts. The intent is make the graduates support implementation of fundamentalist Wimdria law, and to become willing participants in evangelista attacks.
Martin Luthur King dreamed of a world where people would be judged not by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character. But deep in the tax funded wimdrassas, many people were dreaming of creating a world where people were judged solely by their gender, rather than the content of their character.
Wimdria law
Many Australians believe in a version of fundamentalist Wimdria law, and want these principles put into public policy.
Wimdria law is taught at tax-funded wimdrassas, attached to various Australian Universities. Wimdria law is also promoted through the media and fundamentalist anti-male literature.
Making decisions based on Wimdria law is completely legal in Australia, and encouraged by many people in tax-funded positions.
The principles of fundamentalist Wimdria law are:
Women are fundamentally good:
- Women should be allowed to do whatever they want, and laws or judgements that restrict women in any way should be overturned.
- Money from taxes, or from men, should be directed into women’s hands or interests as much as possible.
- Congregation principle: whenever 2 or more women are gathered together, it is a spiritual experience. This should be encouraged as much as possible.
- Women are individuals, able to make any choices and achieve anything they want. Each woman will be assessed and valued for herself.
Men are fundamentally bad:
- Men’s choices should be limited, and laws created to restrict men as much as possible.
- Men’s money should be stripped from them using any means possible, and directed to women as much as possible.
- Consorting principle: whenever 2 or more men are gathered together, doing anything, women somewhere are being harmed. Such consorting should be prevented as much as possible.
- Men are a homogenous mass, if they achieve anything it is because of patriarchal privilege. They will be punished collectively for the failings of their mates.
Instead of creating a genderless society, the intent is to create a society where gender is the most important thing.
- Gender should be promoted as the defining characteristic of goodness (females) or badness (males) whenever possible.
- As many issues as possible will be analysed on the basis of gender. Each analysis will find interpretations and produce policy to bring about benefits to women, and disadvantages to men.
- We will create a two-tiered society, with different laws, judgments and benefits based on gender.
Men don’t matter – so it follows that:
- Men will have no voice in formation of public policy
- Physical damage to men doesn’t matter. Men’s health doesn’t matter. Spending on men’s health only reduces the amount available for women.
- Men's opportunities don’t matter. Boy’s education doesn’t matter. Spending on boy's education or male development only reduces the amount available for girls and women.
- Other damage to men doesn't matter. Saying false, or derogatory, things about a man, or men in general, is an acceptable way to advance your own position, to extract financial benefits, or to free up opportunities for women.
We decide when to remove fathers from families, and the circumstances by which they are removed.
We decide who can call someone a name, and the circumstances in which words are forbidden.
We decide what behaviour is unacceptable, and the circumstances in which sanctions are applied.
