By Cireena Simcox, published 25/1/2007

A feminist is not a woman with hairy armpits and a chip on her shoulder.

Divorce Doctor,

Are you saying that we have become so guilt-ridden by our collective male “dirty socks” that we happily forfeit $20bn pa and throw our children overboard in shark-infested waters clouded by red herrings?

If so, how can you help?

While I like the Dylan quotation, I can also see merit in Trade’s “Dancing with my self”.

Divorce doctor wrote " On life threatening side thousands of murders of kid by mum are blamed on SIDS when MBP [Munchhaussen By Proxy] is culprit - a mother only disease, so covered up by Industry"

Before this gets out of hand, what is being referred to here is a dead baby is found, question of how did the baby die, with the mother claiming sids (sudden infant death syndrome- where the baby suddenly stops breathing) or is it death by suffocation ie murder, a good forensic pathologist can tell the difference from lung biopsy, in the first you get normal lung tissue, in the second you get contused lung tissue from babies struggle to breathe...

It is a question that has troubled doctors, police and society for a while which is if mothers who murder babies have been getting away without justice by manipulating the system (sids is a new 'disease' created by a lack of explanation to cause of death...or where the forensic pathologist has failed to see the diagnostic signs), and working on sympathy for herself to get supported afterwards, and if law has been failing to address this area sufficiently to get to the facts including the real motive...

I was talking to MBP [MSP in USA] specifically, not smothering etc

do a google to understand, but my own senses were alerted when I simply "mentioned it" in a case in Family Court and whole court went ballistic, as lawyers of course agree to not bring it up, particularly as the "case" is always about FALSE accusations re dad

"MSP is an extremely violent form of child abuse, often going on for years before it is detected. The perpetrators are usually very intelligent and resourceful, and are commonly acquainted with sophisticated medical practices. Characteristic in these cases is an early history of emotional and physical abuse of the caregiver, identity problems, intense feelings, inadequate impulse control, a deficient sense of reality, brief psychotic episodes, and unstable interpersonal relationships.

The caregiver basks in the attention given to them. They stay by the sick child's bed day and night, become involved with hospital staff, and sometimes even gain recognition outside the hospital. Kathleen Bush, whose daughter Jennifer, had 200 hospitalizations and 40 surgeries in her first 8 years of life, was lauded by Hillary Clinton in 1994 at a White House rally. Another woman later found to have MSP, Yvonne Eldridge, was named national "Mother of the Year" in 1988 by Nancy Reagan."

as a good Yippee on this whole subject see Falling Down with Michael Douglas, Robert Duval in 1990 - highly recommended

It was promoted simply as a Ralph Nader type "comsumer rights" rant, eg the hilarious Whammy Burger scene "ever heard the expression the customer is always right?" "that's not our policy" [until the AK47 came out!]

But it was far more cunning than that as it was seen by blokes as the ultimate rant on "father's/deadbeat dad's rights", hence there was a "false" backlash by femos to have it "banned" on that "ground".

But the real reason for femo reaction was the movie hinted very skillfully at the Tuesday Weld character [wife of Duval] having killed their little girl via MBP and blamed on "Sudden Infant Death -- Syndrome" as Duval kept saying, but then saying things like "but very strange because .." So it was a very minor subplot but got the same reaction as I saw in Family Court

THAT was the real reason the fems wanted the film banned because they feared the mushrooms might finally see the light - mushrooms never do, they like dark corners and being fed on bs, so they had nothing to worry about
