ICMI20: Xman (interview with Elizabeth Hobson and Brian Martinez)
This video is one of 120 videos published for the sixth International Conference on Men's Issues (2020) http://icmi2020.icmi.info, a conference originally planned for Sydney, Australia, but later turned into a virtual conference due to Covid-19.
From #metoo to the American Psychological Association’s guidelines pathologizing “masculinity” as harmful, to Gillette’s razor adverts blaming all men for the actions of a damaged few, ideologically motivated groups have used unchallenged narratives of female victimhood to promote damaging stereotypes about men and boys, masculinity and men’s relationships to each other.
More than ever before, recognition of men’s issues is needed. Men and boys deserve compassion, they deserve consideration for their unique needs, and they deserve our support.
Men and boys also deserve respect for their unique contributions to society and an end to the promotion of unkind stereotyping of being harmful, abusive, toxic, selfish and hateful. We would not tolerate this stereotyping directed towards any other group.
We are in an era of unprecedented ideological conflict. By reducing men’s ability to take a positive identity from their masculinity we are encouraging young men to pursue ever more radical ideologies to find a place to belong. In turn we are also encouraging young women to embrace an identity as society’s victims rather than its equal co-creators.
The inaugural conference was held in 2014, and since 2016 the conference has been held annually:
- Detroit (2014)
- London (2016)
- Gold Coast, Australia (2017)
- London (2018)
- Chicago (2019)
Playlists of all 100+ presentations at the conferences (as well as the 120 at this one) are here, along with playlists of the presentations at the Messages 4 Men conferences in London (2017-19) and the (UK) National Conference on Men's Issues, “Domestic Abuse is a Men’s Issue, Too” (2020):
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKhX1c3ow6BrzdzP3ydpeZQ/playlists
The conferences deal with the social and legal issues that disproportionately (or uniquely) affect men and boys.
This year’s conference is being held online, with the publication of 120 videos (one per hour, every hour) from midday, Saturday, 14 November, to midday, Thursday, 19 November, 2020 (International Men’s Day), Sydney time.
Our thanks to Tom Caulfield, Technical Director at Justice for Men & Boys, for his impressive launch video:

[Note added 7.6.15: Sandi Toksvig's second 'Lying Feminist of the Month' award certificate is here https://j4mb.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/150602-v3-sandi-toksvigs-lfotm-award.pdf.]
[Note added 1.6.15: An hour after we notified Sandi Toksvig's agent of the challenge, we were notified she wouldn't be responding to it - https://j4mb.wordpress.com/2015/06/01/sandi-toksvig-declines-to-accept-our-public-challenge. We'll shortly be presenting Ms Toksvig with her second 'Lying Feminist of the Month' award.]
Sandi Toksvig is a spokeswoman for the Women's Equality Party. She is, fittingly, a comedienne. She won the May 2015 'Lying Feminist of the Month' award for comments she made about the gender pay gap - https://j4mb.wordpress.com/2015/05/17/sandy-toksvig-womens-equality-party-wins-our-lying-feminist-of-the-month-award/.
Feminists routinely claim (or imply) that a causal link exists between increasing female representation on corporate boards, and enhanced financial performance. Caroline Criado-Perez won the first of her three 'Lying Feminist of the Month' awards for making such a claim https://j4mb.wordpress.com/2015/04/30/lying-feminists-of-the-month-gloria-de-piero-mp-twice-laura-bates-twice-caroline-criado-perez-thrice-kat-banyard-a-womens-aid-spokeswoman/.
Feminists present reports from well-known organizations (McKinsey, Credit Suisse, Reuters Thomson, Catalyst...) as showing positive causal links, but they don't. They show correlations, and they make it clear that the correlations they report don't prove causality, nor even imply it. There are more credible explanations for the correlations than a 'female factor'.
Campaign for Merit in Business http://c4mb.wordpress.com is an organisation linked with J4MB. In 2012 Mike Buchanan presented evidence to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries, longitudinal studies showing a link between increasing female representation on boards, and corporate financial decline - https://c4mb.wordpress.com/improving-gender-diversity-on-boards-leads-to-a-decline-in-corporate-performance-the-evidence/. Three of the five studies described the negative impact of legislated gender quotas in Norway.
In the course of her discussion with Stephen Fry at the Hay Festival, Sandi Toksvig made the following claims, clearly implying a positive causal link between increasing female representation on boards, and enhanced corporate performance:
"Every single piece of business research will show you that a business that has a board with diversity on it does better."
"Norway did it (increased female representation on boards) by quotas, and that worked very well for them."
We must assume that when she says, '... worked very well for them' she means in terms of the companies' performance - which is demonstrably untrue, as

We’re posting on this playlist videos of the 70+ Q&A sessions which took place after the presentations and interviews at the 70+ speaker seventh (online) International Conference on Men’s Issues http://icmi2021.icmi.info/speakers (13-19 December, 2021).
This discussion took place after we published the world premiere of Hannah Gal's documentary, "Progressivism Kills Men, Families, Society and Civilization". It's an extraordinary piece of work and we expect it to both win awards at film festivals and be a commercial success.
The presentations and interviews themselves will be published at a later date, in March or April 2022, possibly later. If you wish to watch them before then please buy a ticket (£20.00) here https://icmi2021.icmi.info/tickets-2/. We currently expect ticket sales to end on 1 January.
You’ll find on the conference website all 70+ presentations and interviews, and by buying a ticket you’ll help ensure the continuation of this remarkable conference series, which started in Detroit in 2014. The videos will be available on the conference platform until 13 June, 2022.

ICMI2
icmi20-bernhard-lassahn-the-tragedy-of
Bernhard is a German writer and songwriter. He has written a number of major novels and many books for children. His recent trilogy is Frau ohne Welt (Women Without World: 1. War On Men. 2. War On Children. 3. War On The Future).
Starting with the misconception of the querelle des femmes in the year 1600 in Venice, he will explore some structural flaws of feminism and focus on matters in Germany from after World War 2 to the post-migrant-crisis playground. His topics will include fatherlessness and the totalitarian state, fascism and socialism in recent history, linguistic therapy (Marcuse), men’s rights, fathers' duties, current activities. In short: no peace without liberty, no liberty without truth (Jaspers).
