Am I The Only One? I Hope Not!

 ·3 min read

Washington — A controversial Texas law banning abortions after six weeks of pregnancy went into effect at midnight after the U.S. Supreme Court didn't issue a ruling on it. A group of pro-abortion rights groups and providers had asked the high court on Monday to block it.

The law is one of the nation's most restrictive, prohibiting nearly all abortions in the state, the abortion rights groups warned. 

In addition to outlawing abortion as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, the measure allows private citizens to bring civil lawsuits against anyone who provides an abortion after six weeks or helps a woman access the procedure, such as a friend who drives a woman to obtain an abortion, or clinic staff. Those found in violation of the law are required to pay at least $10,000 to the person who successfully brought the suit.

Close to a month ago, I reached out to roughly 40-60 other white men, calling upon at least one to help me coordinate beginning an effort for white men - working on supporting one Pro-Abortion - cause together - nationally - including working locally.

I spoke then - of the fact that SCOTUS - likely will soon allow the Alabama State law - to limit abortion substantially as well as later on the Mississippi - case which will allow the outlawing of abortion.

S I L E N C E - was the response - I got!  Several men offered muted support.

Upper-middle class white women - won't be hurt by this, though some of their daughters will - when they can't and/or won't trust their mothers.  

Poor BIPOC women - will be the ones hurt!

Strange - coincidence isn't it!

I'm still open to working with at least one other white man (or even a BIPOC man, though I think we white men should be there now).

My email address is:  m@rxge0(at)gm@1l(d0t)c0m - all lettering is standard not the symbols noted.  

I'm waiting!   I hope that I won't wait long!

I'm just as remiss as you all!   I was silent far too long!

Big Girls Don't Cry

BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY My father (Menachem) Imanuel Marx died Friday, November 13, 1964, when I was 13 years old.    My mother woke my brother and I up with the news early that morning.    We went to the hospital and saw him for the last time. I didn’t cry then.       Daniel and I went to school that day.   I didn’t tell anyone. Two days later at the funeral, I was still being “a man” (i.e. not crying).   Until I was in my second men’s group around age 31, I didn’t allow myself to cry .    I rationalized this by saying to myself:   “ How does x compare with the death of my father ?”. I am self-identified as a   Jewish man .    Growing up that meant being intellectual and not emotional .    Our Sabbath dinner was the only time in the week, when we couldn’t read at the table.    While I was “schooled” on feelings through my men’s work (, most significantly through helping co-found Men Stopping Rape, Inc. in 1983), it was only several months ago that I was able to first
