We publish so many articles at ROK that I fear some gems get buried in the pile, so I wanted to start a monthly feature which highlights important articles that should not be missed. Here are the top 5 from January: 1. 35 Things Wrong With America Pervasive politically correct environment where dissenting thought is labeled sexist, racist, or homophobic. This is usually immediately followed by a witch hunt to end the person's employment. 2. Anything Women Can Do, Men Can Do Better I challenge you to name a female scientist besides Rosalind Franklin, Grace Hopper, Jane Goodall, or Marie Curie. Could the other Read More

In August 2012, Emma Sulkowicz was allegedly raped by Paul Nungesser, both Columbia University students. Nungesser is a male feminist from Germany. Two other women supposedly had already brought complaints against him with the university, so several months after the alleged event, in April 2013, Sulkowicz also filed a complaint against him [It appears that this sequence of events is reversed—see below]. All complaints were dismissed for complete lack of evidence, as is the norm in American judicial theory. In December, the media began to cover the story and assumed Nungesser was guilty.

“The woman follows the man. In her youth she follows her father and elder brother; when married, she follows her husband; when her husband is dead, she follows her son.” – Confucius Aristotle made a cruel observation regarding human nature in his treatise on politics that continues to offend sensibilities to this day.

Well, opinions differ on this topic. I guess you already know what answer I would give you if you would ever ask me this question. I am convinced that travelling to another country in search of sexual adventures is anything but unethical. The experiences you gain from those adventures are worth more than every amount of money in the world, and I think there is no better feeling Read More

According to documents leaked in 2013, Australian ABC News 24 presenter Virginia Trioli received an annual salary of $235,664. When she provides “gems” like this, where Trioli glibly links professional male tennis players smashing racquets with the onset of serious domestic violence, you have to wonder if half her remuneration goes towards obtaining (but clearly not using) anti-psychotic drugs. By treating racquet smashing as a prelude to male-on-female domestic violence, and juxtaposing it with the horrendous decision to name Rosie Batty 2015 Australian of the Year, Trioli is showing her true, radically misandrist colors. Under Triolian logic, any male who stubs Read More
