Do Fathers4Justice have an anti-feminist agenda?


Barbara Legault and A Babord magazine, a social and political French-language revue, is being sued by Andy Srougi for libelous claims published in the October/November issue of 2006.

He has accused Legault of uttering hateful comments in the article she wrote entitled "Men against feminism." A call for solidarity is being sent out to all leftist publications and organizations. See A Babord magazine for more detail.

It's kind of contradictory to sue Legault for calling Srougi an anti-feminist--a charge the claimant apparently finds hateful. How can "anti-feminist" be a hateful utterance if the group implicitly calls the judicial process the same in regards to awarding fathers time with their children? Isn't feminsim to blame for the juridical process you claim is anti-father... anti-men?

Fathers for justice caused major upheaval last summer when a man stood on top of the Jacques-Cartier Bridge in a publicity move for the lobbying group. they claim that men should be awarded custody as easily as women are in the divorce fights. The groups is also thought to be behind the scaling of a wall at Buckingham Palace dressed as Batman in January 2007.
