Katherine K. Young Libri

The book explores how sensationalized events, such as the Lorena Bobbitt case and Anita Hill's allegations, have fueled a cultural shift towards misandry in North America. Authors Paul Nathanson and Katherine Young argue that ideological feminism has influenced various societal aspects, including law, public policy, and education, promoting a worldview that often marginalizes men. They provide compelling evidence of how this perspective has infiltrated legal systems and corporate policies, reshaping discussions around issues like marriage, custody, and human rights.

A probing inquiry into the pervasiveness of negative male stereotypes in popular culture.

Exploring the evolution of gender roles, this thought-provoking work examines whether the advancements in technology and culture over the past ten millennia have rendered traditional notions of masculinity irrelevant. It delves into the implications of this shift for men in contemporary society, questioning the future of male identity and relevance in a rapidly changing world.

The authors explore the impact of a contemporary interpretation of goddess religion that fosters misandry, positioning it as a harmful ideology that detracts from the pursuit of sexual equality. By examining this perspective, they reveal how it perpetuates negative attitudes towards men, paralleling the effects of misogyny. Young and Nathanson aim to critique this trend and highlight its implications for societal views on gender relations.
