Most women find themselves constantly on the edge of a dangerous and ubiquitous “sexual ravine.” Those who fall into the trap of the ravine no longer see themselves as unique and valuable individuals. They possess a physical body that constantly requires an appearance corresponding to sexual criteria imposed by men. The ravine extracts from its […]

Nice Terror Attack – 60% Of Children Suffer From PTSD
For a short moment that seemed an eternity, the promenade that runs along the deep blue sea bay known as “La Baie des Anges,” (The Bay of Angels), came under attack from an insane and evil man possessed by the devil. He drove a 19-ton lorry into the crowd that had gathered along the Promenade […]

The Lost People Of Brexit
I came across a Facebook posting from a British citizen living in an EU-27 Member State. He, like most of us, is lost in the maze of truths, untruths, threats and reassurances that make up the Brexit jungle. It is a jungle that is rapidly turning into a morass and the continuing uncertainty is sinking […]

Teenager Growing Pains – What Were YOU Doing When You Were Fourteen?
If I think about it, I’m probably writing this post not out of pure desperation, but as a therapy. This is my way of trying to convince myself that things are not as bad as they seem. I mean, what could be wrong? My wife has gone away for two days to attend a Catholic […]

Femicide In Europe – A Question Of Manhood
The victims all had a Christian name – Suzanne, Ingrid, Florence, Catherine… Most had a job – schoolteacher, bank employee, secretary… They all had parents, friends, neighbours, and many had children. Their Christian names are our names and their jobs are our jobs. We too, have parents, friends, and for many of us, children. For […]
Brexit Is Brexit, And Marmite Is Marmite!
How dare they! How could they! And who are the traitors buying this unsavoury mix? It is a mix that defies what I am and where I come from. There are not many things that I have treasured since I left England in 1984, but Christmas pudding, Manchester City, and Marmite figure high up on […]

How To Destroy A Human Brain
It’s a story I missed, but having now seen it, I cannot leave it untouched. It represents, on its own, all that is magnificent and evil about human existence – the magnificence of giving life to another, and the evil of taking part of that same life away. In November last year, a French court […]

The Case Against Evolutionary Psychology – When Science Forgets Morality
I’ve had a brief encounter with the world of evolutionary psychology, by posting my last piece in a Facebook group baring the same name. It was accepted by a moderator but not, it seems, by the group’s members. Maybe they didn’t like the way I criticized psychologists. I was accused of submitting a blog post […]

Macho Man Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls
A man’s only as old as the woman he feels. – Groucho Marx I suppose that it’s the job of every psychologist to analyse the deep and hidden impulses that underscore the actions of men and women. Their job is to enlighten us, to differentiate between what is inherent to our genome, from what […]

An Open Letter To All Women
A Facebook user passed judgement on a film he hasn’t seen, a blog post he hasn’t understood, and a woman’s condition he knows nothing about. We must all agree that, on the whole, women are in a much better position than 70 years ago. However, we must also acknowledge that the views held by many […]
