Peter Zohrab

When I saw the headline that “An outspoken men’s activist and critic of New Zealand’s legal system has been told he is not a fit and proper person to be a lawyer.” I thought I bet you that is Peter Zohrab.

And so it is. Former Usenet readers will remember Mr Zohrab well.

I recall when I worked in the PM’s Office seeing missives from Mr Zohrab that would refer to the dykeocracy which ruled the country etc. Burton Shipley would have found them amusing.

I also recall with amusement when he testified to a select committee that women lost intelligence during pregnancy and so they can’t be relied on or something. I made sure I shared his wisdom with all my female friends but just ended up with a lot of bruises!
