A Man Tax?
A bunch of parliamentarians in Sweden have just proposed a “man tax” to cover the costs of violence against women. Whoa!
"It must be obvious to all of us that society has a huge problem with male violence against women and that has a cost," Left Party deputy Gudrun Schyman told Swedish radio on Monday.
"We must have a discussion where men understand they as a group have a responsibility," said Schyman, one of the party members to sign the motion for debate on the new tax.
Any thoughts?

What are your thoughts on this "Man Tax" Jessica?
I was looking for something else and ran across this site. I really like the layout and colors you chose. This gave me so much information indeed! http://hoodia06.wind.prohosting.com
That's really disgusting. Thanks for the heads up, Hujo. Be careful, though, we aren't supposed to ask the Ladies of Feministing what they think.
While your at it, google “Swedish prostitution laws� And “catalyst for masculinist discourse� yes they spelled masculist wrong.
The medal of honour awarded to winners, in accordance with the decisions of the I.O.C., remained that adopted many years previously at the Amsterdam Olympic Games (1928) despite the fact that its subject was not considered with any favour by Italian art critics. However, the original medal produced by Prof. Cassioli of Florence was adopted in the successive Olympic Games of Los Angeles (1932), Berlin (1936), London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956), preserving the same design and thus creating a tradition which prompted the I.O.C., on the occasion of the work of the 54th Session held at Tokyo, to decide that this same theme for the medals for winners should be continued for the 1960 Games.
On the face of the medal there therefore appeared the same allegory conceived by Prof. Cassioli, while the back bore the words "Games of the XVII Olympiad – Rome 1960". The medal was encircled by a bronze band composed of laurel leaves.
The commemorative medal of the Games was the work of Prof. Emilio Greco, who designed it according to his own personal ideas, avoiding any form of complicated symbolism and turning directly to the expressive clarity of a purely figurative style. On the face of the medal, the sculptor modelled a female nude running and bearing the Olympic torch with the Olympic rings in the background. On the back of the medal the artist depicted a flight of eagles rising from the Olympic Stadium of Rome and disappearing in the sky. This original conception at the same time symbolises the victories in the Olympic Games and their echo throughout the world. The Arts Committee, having obtained the approval of the Organising Committee, also entrusted Prof. Emilio Greco with the creation of a giant statue symbolising "The Olympic Torch". This work by the sculptor Greco, inspired by modern figurative art, was placed close to the Palazzo dello Sport, at the highest point overlooking the waterfall and the small lake. The original model, presented by the sculptor to the Exhibition of Sport in History and Art, was set up in the centre of the main staircase in the Palazzo delle Scienze at E.U.R.
