All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Yeah, he is...Glad I'm not the only one that thinks so...

I can't say I agree with this. To give some examples:
Men pay more than women for car insurance. But it is illegal for health insurance companies to charge women more than men, even though women are more expensive to insure.
Women who are convicted of criminal offenses receive lighter sentences than men convicted of the same offenses.
The alimony system is unfair, often in ways which benefit women at the expense of men. For example, in some states a man can be stuck paying child support, even after genetic testing has proved that the child is not his. I know of a case where a doctor and a woman had been married for several years. She didn't give up her career, or have children, or make any other notable financial sacrifices. When they got divorced, she got half his assets, but he did not receive half of her assets. In addition to half his assets, she received several years of alimony payments.
In the Duluth Model, the basic principle of innocent until proven guilty is abandoned. Instead, the man is assumed to be guilty by virtue of his sex; the woman innocent by virtue of hers. Domestic violence is reported twice as often in lesbian relationships as in male homosexual relationships; which is evidence against both the Duluth Model itself and against the feminist teaching upon which that model is based. But even despite having been renounced by the woman who invented it in the first place, the Duluth Model is widespread and influential.
So no, men don't have everything our own way. What is needed is not a tug of war or battle between the sexes, but rather a commitment by both men and women to uphold basic principles of justice and fairness.
