Film 24 – Irresponsible Mothers
Addresses the selfish behaviour of many mothers that has led to fatherlessness, damage to children in the womb and other child abuse.
Looks at the media presentation of fathers as “irresponsible” and “dead-beats” compared with society’s failure to call irresponsible mothers to account. (Read more…)

another great video! I’ll share this with people who know whats going on in this world for sure.
congratulations
In Spain, the men are being chased by a law that violates the presumption of innocence.
Every year 120.000 men go to prison for denunciations of ill-treatment, and then they turn out to be not culprits mas of 90 %.

Greetings MWM,
My name is Joe Soltys. I am a member of the National Coalition for Men, and one of the co-founders of the Chicago Chapter in the U.S.
I just wanted to take a moment and let you know how impressed I am with your work. As someone who has recently begun my own involvement with video projects, I understand the amount of time, work, and commitment that has gone into everyone of your videos. Your craftsmanship and tenaciousness should be applauded within the men’s movement.
I recently began work on a project for NCFM. It involved the creation of an internet television station devoted to broadcasting videos which educate and/or raise awareness about men’s issues. Unlike Youtube, our station runs videos continuously for 24/7 – one can tune in at anytime. It was during the creation of this project that I came across your videos. Over the last two weeks, we began test- broadcasting our network through veetle.com (news channels). It was a test run that included some videos produced by manwomanmyth.
So in short, I am writing to tell you that the project has been a success, and the NCFM Television Network as been viewed by over 6000 during this short time frame.
As our media project goes forward, I would like to include broadcasting all the videos that manwomanmyth has produced on the NCFM Television Network. However, I would like to have your approval first.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Joe Soltys
Hello,
Thanks for this information and I’m glad the films can be of use to you. They did indeed involve a lot of work and it’s nice when this is appreciated by someone who understands what’s involved.
You are welcome to use the videos as you describe and it seems like a very worthwhile project. Please let me know the link to your channel when it is live as I’m very interested in it, and I’m sure it will be of great interest to many other people in the men’s movement and further afield.

This is why I have zero respect for single mothers!
Hi there,
I’m with you on all of your videos up to this one. And I agree entirely about your assessment of irresponsible mothers.
But, there is too much here about women ‘making’ men fathers etc. as if we men are such slaves to sexual need that we can’t make any choices ourselves. You don’t HAVE to have sex with a woman, or any given woman. No one has a gun at your head forcing you not to wear a condom. Come on now. I’m never going to be a father to children from a woman I don’t like (I’m a father to two children to my wife actually) because I would never have sex without a condom with any woman I wasn’t in a long term relationship with who I wanted to have children with.
This one really is about human irresponsibility, male and female. You are right that the media only focuses on one side (male) but wrong in saying that women have some mysterious power to “make” men fathers when they don’t want to be. You don’t want to be a father, don’t have sex without a condom. Careful you don’t stray into suggesting some sort of male entitlement to sex because of need here – that could threaten everything that is great in your videos (which is 99.9%!)
All the best,
Ivan
Hi. I can’t remember if we’ve had much in the way of communication in the past, but we must have for you to be able to comment here without moderation. I appreciate your general support on the issues I cover and your position on this film, is of course your business. However, I hope you forgive my brevity and manner of response, as my patience with the sort of comment you have made here has long ago worn to nothing. I call it the male condition and I will post on this topic in time and/or make a film about it.
1) Condoms are nothing to do with anything. If they were so fantastic, a female contraceptive pill would never have been conceived let alone produced. And according to your comment here, it’s an easy matter to quash the human sex drive: (“You don’t HAVE to have sex with a woman, or any given woman”). So, there’s no need for condoms at all – we could all just decide not to have sex, right?
There are a number of reasons why the efficacy of condoms is a lot less than ideal and you are putting too much emphasis on sex itself. The issue is not sex, it’s control of fertility. I cover the whole issue in Reproductive Rights.
2) Women can and do force fatherhood on a man in the ways I have described at length in this film, in Reproductive Rights, in Fathers’ Rights and in Fatherlessness. If I have not been clear enough in all this to make the case to you and others like you, so be it. There’s little further I can add here.
3) Your point about male “entitlement” to sex doesn’t make sense to me, I’m afraid. I will say that having sex is not an agreement to fatherhood any more than it is an agreement to motherhood. The difference is that a woman can choose whether or not a sexual partner becomes a father, regardless of the use of condoms (which you incorrectly appear to regard as an all-powerful solution). He cannot control his fertility in the same way as she can. I don’t see any way to be clearer on this self-evident point.
As I have suggested, your view expressed here is not surprising to me, although it is tiresome and saddening.
I will ask you to try one thought experiment. If you had sex with a woman, wearing a condom, and something went wrong such that the woman became pregnant despite your precautions, would you be overjoyed at the prospect of impending fatherhood?
If yes, why did you wear a condom? And what would you feel if she sought an abortion? Is this the “mysterious power” that you deride? The “mysterious power” to decide if you become a father or not? The “mysterious power” that you say women don’t have? Not so “mysterious” is it?
If you were not overjoyed, why did you have sex at all? As you say: “You don’t want to be a father, don’t have sex without a condom”. The ignorance of this statement is quite astounding but even accepting it for this argument, why add the words: “without a condom”? Surely it should just be: “You don’t want to be a father, don’t have sex”. Could you be acknowledging the desire in humans to have sex with each other separate from the desire to become a father or mother?
One last time, for the cheap seats:
If HE has sex and doesn’t want to be a father, what can he do about it if she becomes pregnant?
If SHE has sex and doesn’t want to be a mother, what can she do about it if she becomes pregnant?
I fear I have wasted time in responding here, but I do tend to persevere even in the face of serious incomprehension. You never know what might get through.
Regards,
mwm
