It's gotta start somewhere ...

I was talking with a friend about some of the recent and proposed changes to legislation in a couple of the other states that are inappropriate and will lead to social problems down the track and he told me that I should do something about it.

I proceeded to tell him how I couldn't because I can be a little "passionate" about some of the injustices going on around the place, in particular those perpetrated against men by special interest (minority) groups, the media and governments.

This does not mean that I am anti female, anti gay or anything the like, what it means is that as we celebrate who and what others are, we must remember to celebrate men, whether they are straight or gay, dads (or not), brothers or sons etc.

Anyway, after suggesting setting up my own blog and me proceeding to tell him that "nah I can't do that..." well here I am.

Now before we move on, let me state quite clearly, Equality for all is something I strongly believe in. Equality between the sexes, between races, different faiths, religious beliefs etc. But equality means equality.

The problem I see more and more is that the drive to this "equality" is the trampling over others rights and that some are using this for some hidden agenda that they have but are too gutless to say out loud.

This blog will be a small reflection of my journey, so let it begin ....

Your friend sounds very wise. I would listen to him more often if I were you. I bet he likes to chat.

Nice blog.
