I think I'll archive this one for posterity...such a finely honed
sense of martyrhood, coupled with a sense of hostility that is
so ready-to-explode she can barely keep it under control. 

There is a certain paradox in the writing. On the one hand, Ms. Amero
insists repeatedly that women are the superior gendher, yet she
immediately dismisses any woman who disagrees with her. Hmmmmmm.
Could it be that feminism is just a convenient ploy for Ms. Amero 
to use win working through her anger? Interesting question.

In the mean time, here's a book that I think would make excellent
reading for Ms. Amero...review attached.

When She Was Bad

Viking, Random House of Canada, hard cover, 288 pages, $26.95
(Canadian), 

ISBN 0-394-22430-2).

Reviewed by Walter H. Schneider in "The Liberator"

���I picked up Patricia Pearson's When She Was Bad; Violent Women &
the Myth of Innocence (Now I'm hopelessly behind with my e-mail and
the other things that need doing, because once I started to read it, I
found it difficult to put it down.)

��� It is one of the most important works that have been published
since Erin Pizzey's "Prone to Violence" in 1982 about the truth in the
discussion of the subject of domestic violence (PTV is available as an
Internet edition at <http://www.bennett.com/ptv/index.shtml>). � Aside
from the fact that Patricia Pearson is totally honest about the
circumstance that women are in truth as violent as men are, she is
also quite open about the truth that is being witheld from western
society in a propaganda scam that is more mind-boggling in its
severity and magnitude than any other such scam that has ever been
foisted on civilization.� It is debatable whether a feminist
conspiracy exists to make civilization over in the image of "Her", but
when one reads about the single-mindedness of many sociologists all
over the world in selectively quoting the results of their research in
such a manner that it causes the most harm to men and families, what
other conclusion offers itself?

��� In her book, Patricia Pearson time and again cites instances of
"research studies" by renowned sociologists who deliberately excluded
male victims of violence or any aspects of the contributing factors to
violence that would provide objective study results.� She provides
numerous examples of how "all of society" bends over backwards in the
greatest denial ever, to sweep women's propensity to violence under
the carpet.� The examples she uses range from infanticide, through
false abuse allegations to divert attention, and through the refusal
of the media to publish the truth, to female mass and serial killers
who were able to achieve their aims quite openly and in view of the
public, because women have acquired the false reputation of being
virtuous.� Partricia Pearson explains that SIDS is no more than a
euphemism, deliberately invented to support the myth that women are
faultless and pure and to prevent them from being punished when they
do commit the murder of their children, citing the example of one
women who killed nine of her children in succession before she was
finally brought to trial, and that in the U.K. of 5,000 such cases
investigated annually, only 15 in one year resulted in prosecution of
the perpetrators of the murders.� She also provides ample evidence
that the media, academe, jurisprudence and the social service sector
lend themselves to further the aims of feminists in spite of plentiful
reasons to do otherwise.� The whole situation leaves the uninitiated
incredulous.

��� It is unfortunate that someone apparently sabotaged the format of
the book.� I have no other explanation for the fact that the
references in the text of the book to the 243 sources of the citations
quoted are totally, completely and thoroughly missing, although the
book contains a complete set of end notes.� I find the book difficult
to read and its value considerably diminished on account of that. �
Aside from the fact that it becomes thus impossible to verify any of
the quotes and that it is often difficult to distinguish between
Patricia Pearson's opinions and those of others, it is puzzling that
it would have been possible that the serious flaw was not detected
prior to printing, unless there was collusion.

��� In spite of its serious technical flaw, which requires correction
in the next edition, the book must become required reading for all
parties involved in any discussions on new legislation or the type of
counseling or aid required to combat "domestic violence."� If you have
an open mind and want to know about the "evil that women do," read the
book.
