Dad Matters

Never forget how important fathers are to their children. They are crucial influences during their formative and adolescent years. Sadly we have a system that too often seeks to erase them and at great harm. Please share this awareness video #DadMatters #FamilyCourtReform

@swinfan69 @ZoeJardiniere @JMcMurdockMP Most people reading this post will see you as the wanker… and they would be correct.

@ZoeJardiniere @JMcMurdockMP The fact this wanker has kicked a woman in the head should automatically disqualify him from being able to express so much as an opinion on anything related to women

I dont think being overly emotional is particularly helpful when it comes to matters of the law but for the first time since becoming an MP I am genuinely sad about what parliament has done. I am sad because I know what the consequences will be. I am sad because I know nervous first time parents might give way to doubt and opt out of parenthood and how the reality of that means they'll be denied the greatest gift life will ever give them and instead inherit a life of monstrous guilt. I am sad because, now, healthy babies will be destroyed. I am really sorry that the UK has legalised full term abortion. For what it's worth, I voted NO. I am going to squeeze my children a little tighter and thank the universe a little more than normal this morning. You cannot become unpregnant. You just become the parent of a child you killed. That is the reality of life. We must face it. My babies.

Your choice end when you open your legs and don’t use contraception. You want choice? Then choose not to get pregnant. Using abortion as a form of birth control and then gaslighting the public that killing an unborn child is “women’s bodily autonomy” is about as degenerate and vile as modern humans can be. Utter shame

@LambriniPapi If you're pro choice then you're... pro choice. Otherwise you're 'pro some choices that I like'.

This kind of frothing hatred for women's freedom is just so out of touch with public opinion on abortion. MPs with even the tiniest liberal bone in their body need to have some courage and come out and defend our bodily autonomy, because at the moment Westminster is sounding like a house full of loons.

@Ella_M_Whelan What’s out of touch is your inability to realise that an unborn baby is not its mother and has its own rights. To not recognise that makes you either disingenuous and evil or a retard. Which are you?

This is what a 34 week old baby looks like outside the womb. The UK just voted in favor of killing an unborn child at this age. For no reason, just because someone wants to. They call it “reproductive rights” because they refuse to call it what it is: murder.

@StuartWHOGG_ You’ve got our support pal. We’ve also been dragged through the trauma of family court and know what it’s like… Hang in there 👍🏼

I have something I’d like to say…

@MemoristCed @MeghanEMurphy It is an answer. Just not the one you wanted. If you want better answers, ask better questions.

@dadmatters_uk @MeghanEMurphy That is not an answer to my question. Do you want people to stop talking about the objective harm that is done to young men by the Manospherians?

In real life, no one talks about other people in terms of numeric value. No one asks the people they are dating or sleeping with what their “body count” is. Most women are not gold digging whores who only seek to date rich men who look like the college quarterback. All women on social media are not prostitutes and no one is reading a book called Morning Glory Milking Farm. The boys and young men who follow streamers like those featured in @louistheroux's documentary about the "manosphere," though, wouldn’t know that. Because they don’t go out into the real world. They don’t know any real women. They don’t have partners. I don’t even know if they have any male friends in real life. They grew up online, mainlining porn and clips from men calling themselves “HStikkytokky.” These streamers surround themselves with pornstars, convincing their followers that this is a sign of success, while simultaneously telling their young fans that these women deserve no respect on account of their “high body count” and whoredom. They insist money and a collection of very stupid women with very low self-esteem are the primary things that make men real men instead of soyboys. (That, and having big muscles and very tight pants.) The HStikkytokkys and Justin Wallers and Myron Gaines’ of the world, though, don’t actually seem very manly to me. They seem like gay little boys obsessed with their appearances. They have no useful skills to offer, like hunting or fishing or wood chopping or house building. They have nothing useful to offer at all, in fact. They apparently spend all their time online, live streaming for other little boys who also have nothing of value to offer the world. To be clear, this is not a dig at men and boys on the whole. Nor is the documentary. This is purely a dig at the the soulless grifters who saw there was a group of vulnerable, unhappy, naive boys ripe for the picking—with no real world knowledge or wisdom to prevent them from believing any lie sent their way. These boys clearly are lacking in good male role models and real world relationships that could offer a healthy, normal vision of either women or men. They are also online all day and night—the perfect targets for this messaging. It is sad, really, more than it is scary.

@MemoristCed @MeghanEMurphy I want people to not be blatant hypocrites and grifters. Don’t you?

@dadmatters_uk @MeghanEMurphy I'm going to ignore the insults and instead ask you, therefore: Do you want Meghan, and other persons (to include women and/or feminists), to stop talking about the objective harm that is done to young men by the Manospherians?

This happens every day. Why do mothers breach court orders so frequently? Because judges refuse to sanction them. Why are they so derelict in their duty? Because they are a mixture of white knights, benevolent sexists, or cowards in the face of feminist pressure.

@A42Dan That’s true. These people never grow up, they never have agency and are perpetually aggrieved

@dadmatters_uk And mainly it hurts yourself. Because you stay in emotional toddler mode. You don't learn. You miss accountability.

Is this a fair contention? Do you agree?

Women are not oppressed in western countries where feminism exists and never have been. Feminists are doing precisely nothing for countries where it oppression does exist such as Afghanistan. Feminism has never been about equality. They are not even for 50/50 share care of children. Egalitarianism is about equality. Feminism is about privilege and e filet without merit or responsibility eg DEI. Women have never been forced to stay at home. This is the kind of BS feminists project and repeat until it become apocryphal. Feminists are the greatest misogynist to any female that does not subscribe to their ideology. Curiously, feminism has no trouble recruiting acolyte la like yourself to spread their lies and gaslight

@dadmatters_uk @MeghanEMurphy Women were oppressed and in some countries still are. Feminism is about equality. Feminists encourage free choice, so a woman can choose to be a mother but can be a career women too. Forcing women to stay at home is oppression.

Like most morons, you infer that a lack of comment re thing equals complete disregard said thing. That’s retard logic, hence why I didn’t understand what nonsense you were carrying on with in your vegetable comment. While I don’t explicitly advocate for disaffected young men in every comment I wrote, my page is FULL of such comments and posts. And yes, context is king. The damage done to young men by the manosphere is a millionth of the damage done to girls and women AND men/boys by feminism. Manosphere is niche, temporary and mostly derided. Feminism is normalised, entrenched and seen as virtuous. And Megan is a feminist. She advocates for their divisive and harmful policies and by doing so is a perpetrator of the harm it causes. If she were a manosphere grifter, I’d have challenged her equally. But she’s not, she’s arguably much worse.

Context is king. Meghan observed that a lie is sold to young men, a shameful one that discourages and cripples them and makes them not even want to leave their sad basements. Your reply is that the lies being sold to young women are WAYYYY worse, and your further additions to the conversation continue to harp on this subject without showing a jot of concern for the young men. You changed the subject from men suffering from deception by other men to women suffering from deception by other women. Therefore, it is reasonable to interpret your statement to imply that you do not think the harm to men by these men is as pressing or "bad" as harm to/by women. I mean, you're supposed to be the advocate for men's rights here. It's in your bio and all.

@MeghanEMurphy @grok No, that’s you projecting and using sub optimal logic. I disagree with many red pillers and none of them are feminists. Try harder, you’re a professional with 15 years experience remember

@dadmatters_uk @grok You just think anyone who doesn't say the same words as you is a 'feminist'. Or somehow against you. This is exactly how the wokes work.

@Rose_Marie_Holt @WizFather_ It is earth, but it is fantasy. A place I suspect you know well

@dadmatters_uk @WizFather_ This isn’t earth moron

The duel between Brienne of Tarth and Sandor Clegane over Arya Stark in Game of Thrones isn’t heroic. It was raw, ugly, and personal. No elegant footwork, just two warriors dragging each other through mud, rock, and pain for the custody of the stark girl. Brienne fights for an oath, and the Hound is fighting for something he doesn’t fully understand but refuses to lose. And when it ends, Clegane is broken, mortally wounded, and left to die, which makes his survival a miracle

@MeghanEMurphy @grok Because you are. A duck that thinks it’s something other than a duck is still a duck

@dadmatters_uk @grok Why do you keep calling me a feminist?

@MeghanEMurphy @grok Feminists love to deflect, DARVO and project. Let’s undergo a closer B assessment and see how we fair, particularly on insecurity and neuroticism?

@dadmatters_uk @grok That is exactly what your judgement is clouded by

@MeghanEMurphy @grok Unlike you, my judgement is not clouded by insecurity, victimhood and entitlement. A dry eyed revision of history does not paint feminists in a positive light

@dadmatters_uk @grok Yes, male commentators who don't understand the history of feminism but pretend to.

I don’t think these things have hard definitions, just like feminism itself as you correctly note. Plenty of commentators and scholars alike refer to this current feminism resurgence as the 4th wave. @grok, do you agree? Spending 15 years speaking, writing and advocating for a bunk and harmful Ideology does not sound like a good use of time.

There's no fourth wave, we're still ideologically and politically in the third. Anyway, I've been writing and speaking about all this for over fifteen years now so am not going to rehash in a tweet. As I've said a number of times now, "feminism" has become a largely useless term. No one knows what it means, and it could have been abandoned back in the 80s, with the conclusion of the second wave. I prefer to speak about women's rights.

@grok @Coste1Costello That context is vital. The meme is a gaslight and these cretins show no care of concern for the babies lives that have been harmed.

The 400+ figure from the meme comes from Pregnancy Justice's tracking of 412 pregnancy-related prosecutions (June 2022–June 2024, 16 states). But only 31 involved miscarriage or stillbirth. Most (292 of known outcomes) were live births tied to alleged substance use, charged as child abuse/endangerment/neglect—often without proving harm to the baby. Some miscarriage cases led to charges over remains disposal or suspected self-managed abortion, but not "for suffering a miscarriage" alone. The stat inflates by lumping categories. The Epstein contrast is unrelated deflection.

@Lurker01234 @ThePosieParker @grok, what percentage of conceptions are aborted in the UK each year? How many is that per year?

@ThePosieParker Why would you criminalize a grieving mother who just had to make the hardest decision of her life after discovering heartbreaking news about the fetus she was carrying? No one has late abortions for funsies.

Call me old fashioned but I do think women who have late abortions should be criminalised.

@kellythe4th @Geniustechw @philwoodward20 Ok dear 👍🏼

Women: 'What happened to you guys to make you so unhinged and angry?' Men… be brutally honest in the replies: What actually happened?
