Summary: The Next Step in the Evolution of Gender
Comment: Warren Farrell's highly controversial, ground-breaking book has been called "the bible of the men's movement," and deservedly so. For the past thirty years, Western culture has paid an enormous amount of attention to the many ways in which women have suffered due to the traditional female gender role. Now, in this book, Farrell looks at the other side of the coin--the many ways in which men, too, have suffered. The result is fascinating and provocative, a book which challenges many of our widely-held beliefs about women and men, gender and power (if only because said beliefs have never been carefully examined before). Falsely labeled by many feminists as part of some insidious "backlash," this book actually represents the necessary next step *forward* in the evolution of gender. Farrell's purpose is to show how gender traditionalism is now a losing proposition for *both* genders, in the hope that we can now begin moving together into a new era, ! ! an era not of women's liberation or men's liberation, but of *human* liberation. Exhaustively researched and compelling from beginning to end, The Myth of Male Power will not be easily forgotten by those who posess the courage to read it with an open mind.

Summary: Spartacus vs. the social manipulators
Comment: The Myth of Male Power was originally written in 1993, during the height of gender feminism, political correctness, and affirmative action. That era was also the tail end of an undeclared economic depression bringing misery to everyone under thirty - particularly young intelligent individualistic white males with imperfect bodies. I myself was caught in this maelstrom, having lost a promising job due to backstabbing feminist office politics. A book like that was sorely needed back then, and it remains just as relevant now.

The media usually labels TMOMP as a conservative or right-wing book, but TMOMP exposes some of the real class oppression in North America. And it does so far better than most lib-left critiques of class, money, and power. A powerful caste of evil social manipulators has divided and conquered society at the expense of real working men and women of all colours and creeds. The "patriarchy", reviled by feminists, is only a cog in the machinery. Farrell, through TMOMP, comes to the rescue of men, and indirectly, women. Some men, the ones who appear less masculine (gays, geeks, and hard-working but unrewarded "chumps") will benefit more than others. Media liberals pillory Farrell as the male supremacist conterpart to gender feminists. They are wrong, again. A good reading of TMOMP will prove that Farrell stands for true gender equality, and champions true social justice.

TMOMP exposes the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of modern feminism, and of all modern lib-left movements in general. Being tribalist in nature, they help only certain favoured tribes, not individuals in need; and are part of a mighty political machine of hypocritical wealth and power. What else can I say about the ground-breaking TMOMP? Clear, concise, honest, bold, gutsy. The only criticism is that TMOMP is sloppy with some of the facts, such as those about the Laurie Dann case.

Men have been reduced to gladiators - divided conquered gladiators, chained by the traditions of the conservative Right and the new fabricated traditions of the Left, while sadistic powermongers cheer from the balcony. It was the same story in Waco, Ruby Ridge, Oklahoma City, Columbine, and Kosovo. Farrell may well be the intellectual Spartacus of the men's movement.

Summary: lots of ignorant reviewers
Comment: Some reviewers of this book have claimed that Mr.Ferrell unfairly targets women and feminism as the cause of the sad state of men,but it happens to be true.Women are offended by this because they refuse to take blame or responsibility for their prejudicial actions.But they certainly dont mind blaming men at every turn.Women are directly or indirectly responsible for many of the issues facing men today.Go to the ladies against feminism website for some eye-opening facts.Remember,despite their academic affiliation,feminists can still be stupid,ignorant and unreasonable,even laughable.Read this book!
