There has been a lot of publicity lately
about how women
in New Zealand greatly outnumber men in the 20-49 age-group. Where
have they all gone ? Overseas, apparently. Apparently, about equal numbers
of men and women go overseas, but a greater proportion of men than women
stay there.
The problem was first noticed in relation to Australian men, but the
problem with New Zealand men is (proportionately) much greater.
There seem to me to be two reasons for this:
- Men realise that New Zealand is now run by women for women -- instead
of by men for women and children, as has traditionally been the case
throughout history all over the World. For this reason, many men see
no reason to come back, once they have escaped. As a letter to the
New Zealand Herald by Charles Purcell (on 29 July 2005) put it: "Our
women need to give men a much better deal. They should listen less
to radical feminists of indeterminate sexuality and give their men
a fair go."
- New Zealand men are probably more attractive to overseas women than
New Zealand women are to overseas men, so Kiwi women can't get into
relationships overseas to the extent that Kiwi men can. Kiwi women
might think it's funny to talk about "equality", while letting
women meet lower physical standards on entry to the Police, and
to buy clothing that urges girls to throw
stones at boys, but overseas men are likely to see this as a sign
of a Lesbian culture among New Zealand women as a whole -- and they
would be right ! There is a Wellington rag that used to be called
The Dominion, and it used to feature articles barinwashing
women into becoming "strong women".
And we have a Prime Minister called Helen Clark who votes for a Civil
Union Bill but wants to stop police officers
having heterosexual group sex ! Someone must have voted for her
!
New Zealand men are voting with their feet. I
hope not all the ones with brains have left, because we need brains
to put an end to this situation !
