bringing up tomorrow's fathers…

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Yesterday was an International Women’s Day

What Women Want June 2009 issue…

Today I want to ask you: 
What kind of men tomorrow’s fathers will be?
How do you bring up your children?
Do you think ‘boys are boys’ and girls are ‘princesses’?

Is a woman’s place in the home? 1 in 4 say yes-poll 
Do you agree?
India (54 percent), Turkey (52 percent), Japan (48 percent), China, Russia, Hungary (34 percent each) and South Korea (33 percent) were most likely to agree that women should not work.

Do you let your boys stay out later than girls? Why if yes?




Could you burn yourself? 
How do you feel when you see women in this kind of situation?
All women are somebody’s daughers/sisters/mothers…
All men are somebody’s brothers/sons/fathers…
Could you rape your mother or sister?


How about our daughter’s future - 
how do you see their future?
What kind of role model you are - 
to your own children or
as an adult in today’s world?

Tyttöjen alistaminen alkaa päiväkodista
09.03.2010 10:35
Tämä
on tositarina suomalaisesta arjesta: Isä tuo itkevän pikkupoikansa päiväkodin johtajan puheille. ”Poikani kunniaa on loukattu hänen sukunsa edessä”, isä sanoo. Poika on kertonut isälleen päiväkodin arjesta.
”Poikaani ei saa nukuttaa kerrossängyssä, jonka yläpetillä tai viereisessä vuoteessa on tyttö”. Isä vaatii uskontoonsa ja kulttuuriinsa vedoten, että suomalaistytöt on eristettävä oikeauskoisista pojista.
Koska tarina on Suomesta, päiväkodin henkilökunta eristää suomalaistytöt maahanmuuttajapojista. Samassa päiväkodissa opetetaan, että kaikki ihmiset ovat tasa-arvoisia ja kaikkia tulee kohdella yhdenvertaisesti. Tämä perustuu tasa-arvolakiin ja YK:n ihmisoikeuksien julistukseen.
Kellään ei ole erioikeuksia uskontonsa tai ihonvärinsä vuoksi, eikä ketään tulee syrjiä uskonnon, kulttuurin tai ihonvärin perusteella. Tämä perustuu lakiin syrjinnän kieltämisestä.
Koska tarina on Suomesta, päiväkodinohjaajat hyväksyvät maahanmuuttajien erioikeudet. Oikeauskoisia poikia kohdellaan päiväkodeissa jo pienestä pitäen etuoikeutettuina. Naisten alistaminen alkaa jo kapaloiässä, Suomessa. Mitä sanovat lapsi-, nais- ja ihmisoikeusjärjestöt?
Joukko kantaväestöön kuuluvia vanhempia valmistelee kantelua tasa-arvovaltuutetulle lastensa laittomasta kohtelusta päiväkodissa. Jos tuomioita joskus jaetaan, rangaistuksen saavat päiväkodin työntekijät, eivät oikeauskoisten isät.
Maahanmuuttoministeri Astrid Thors, oikeusministeri Tuija Brax ja tasa-arvoministeri Stefan Wallin ovat tietoisia tapahtumista suomalaisissa päiväkodeissa.
Ruohonjuuritason kulttuuritörmäykset ovat arkipäivää, joita maahanmuutosta päättävät poliitikot vähättelevät. Suomalaislasten vanhemmat reagoivat kiihtyvällä tahdilla omilla jaloillaan ja vaihtavat asuinalueita, kouluja ja päiväkoteja.
Haluavatko poliitikot, että Suomessa vahvistuu ulkomaalaisvastainen kansanliike, joka jo riehuu Keski-Euroopassa? Minä en ainakaan halua.

UPDATED!!! what women want…how to punish a rapist?

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010



December 2009 issue of the What women want magazine 

includes an article
‘If I were Queen of Egypt’ 
by Amany Eid   This chapter is about rape.
“As Queen of Egypt, it means I am female, so this means, I will not tolerate rape. So any rape incident that happens – the rapist, will get one of two choices, either he gets castrated or gets executed. This will make everyone think a million times before touching a girl without herconsent. If a man is caught harassing a girl sexually, he gets hid head shaved, whatever way female choses. For example, she could decide to shave the head completely with the word “idiot” on his head, or any label for that  matter.”

If you were a Queen or a King of your country 
what kind of punishment a rapist should get?


UPDATE 4.1.2010

In November 2006, began to deal with rape occurred only two years later, the police through the internet.
Police had met a girl in the street the morning. The girl said that she was runaway and free overnight.
The girl also said that his mobile phone was switched off and that her parents didn’t know where she was.
Constable said that he’s a police and showed his badge of office. That is why the girl had the courage to go his home.
The constable offered strong beer to underage girl. The girl passed out. The police raped her twice.
Immediately after the rape, the man took 17 photos of her, some of which were close-ups. Images he saved on his computer.
Web Police scorch Police rapist
In 2008, the girl contacted the Internet community in IRC-Gallery, through contact with the police in Helsinki online Marko Forss.
- I do not think that this action would have never discovered without Web Projects. Indicate the threshold of such an offense is high, Forss said.
The girl was approached Mr. Forss almost immediately after the Helsinki police, the police close the virtual group started in 2008. 
Three polices are acting on their own faces by young people face online forums such as IRC-Galleria, and now also on Facebook.
Eventually the girl in the Internet connection Mr. Forss, which held the girl’s report logical and credible. The girl had already told the same story to a friend and physician, and repeated the same pre-trial investigations and in court.
The accused changed his story. Photographs supported the prosecution.
The district court sentenced the police two years of conditional imprisonment for the rape.
The girl was ordered compensation of EUR 15000 psychological harm or mental suffering.
Constable convicted of dismissed last fall.
In Finnish
Keski-ikäinen konstaapeli houkutteli virkamerkillä asuntoonsa 16-vuotiaan karkuritytön Helsingissä ja raiskasi tämän harvinaisen röyhkeällä tavalla.
Marraskuussa 2006 tapahtunut raiskaus alkoi selvitä vasta kaksi vuotta myöhemmin nettipoliisin kautta. Tekijäksi osoittautui 51-vuotias poliisimies.
Uhri oli 16-vuotias kotoaan karannut tyttö, jonka konstaapeli houkutteli asuntoonsa poliisin virkamerkin avulla.
Helsingin järjestyspoliisissa työskennellyt 51-vuotias oli tavannut tytön aamuyöstä kadulla. Tyttö kertoi olevansa kark
umatkalla ja vailla yösijaa.
Tyttö sanoi myös, ettei hänen matkapuhelimensa ollut päällä ja etteivät hänen vanhempansa tienneet, missä hän oli.
Konstaapeli kertoi olevansa poliisi ja näytti virkamerkkiään. Siksi tyttö uskalsi lähteä miehen asunnolle.
Siellä konstaapeli tarjosi nelosolutta alaikäiselle tytölle. Tytön sammuttua mies yhtyi häneen kahdesti.
Heti raiskauksen jälkeen mies otti tytöstä kännykkäkameralla 17 kuvaa, joista osa oli lähikuvia. Kuvat hän tallensi tietokoneelleen.
Two years in prison and that’s it?
What do YOU think about that?

accidents and snakes…

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Couple of days ago I was in our garden wondering what’s going on.
It was TOO quiet…like the end of the world.
Next day I saw this and heard the story.

This truck fell over. The driver was under drugs. He lost the control of the vehicle.
Most of the truck drivers make too long days. They get tired and the temptation to take drugs is huge.
A 2007 study on drug addiction in Egypt by the National Centre for Social and Criminal Research showed that 600,000 to 800,000 people (or 0.8 percent of the country’s 76 million population) suffer from addiction. 


Drivers in Egypt generally drive too fast, roads are not good plus there are too many very old cars soon to break down…

I tried to take a picture of that car which is totally smashed but didn’t get better than this. I doubt that any people in the car survived. 6.000 people per year die in traffic…


Do you like snakes?
I do NOT like snakes.

This little snake (30-40 cm) was asleep 
under the trash can in our garden.
Do you know what snake is it? African house snake?
Can you see the head there…

There’re other kinds of snakes.
Men.
Men who sexual harass women.
Here’s a short clip of one story. The whole story by Bikya Masr is here.

“At first I didn’t realize it was a harassment call. I told him it was a wrong number and hung up. He called again with more of the same. After that, I didn’t answer. He called at all hours and started sending messages with the same content. After some time, I thought I could appeal to whatever sense of manhood he had. I answered him and told him I was older than his mother and that it wasn’t appropriate to call me; he apologized and a few hours later started calling again. My son called him and insulted him, but that didn’t stop him either.”


“I called Vodafone and asked them if there was a way to bar a certain number. They said that wasn’t possible, but they gave me the number of a police division that specializes in telecommunications. I had never heard of them but didn’t bother to call them. What would they do anyway?” 


This is a normal attitude in Egypt, where trust of the government and police is at an all time low. The law requires anyone buying a SIM card to register with an ID card, and they do. The caller knows his number is showing up on the other end and that his full name and address are with his network provider, but that doesn’t deter him. In any case, even if the police can stop one person from calling a particular number, it’s impossible to stop the numerous callers that call every day. 


She says “I kept my phone turned off for extended periods. After a few days, he got bored and stopped. But I have another cell phone where a problem was more persistent. Someone called day and night non stop. If I answered he’d call me a whore and say he ‘wanted to fuck me’. If my son or husband answered he’d swear and insult and keep on calling. The calls and messages were waking me up at night. I got so frustrated I had to throw the SIM card away and get a new number.”
