The War On Men    Compare

In “The War On Men”, author and cultural critic Suzanne Venker addresses how marriage and gender relations have worsened in the U.S. She specifically addresses how feminism has affected marriage and the negative impact on men.

Venker explains how feminism is less about equal rights and women’s choices, and more about the war on men. She argues that the sexual revolution was a disaster, resulting in disrespect between modern men and women.

Some of the issues:

- The demise of dating
- How society has become genderless
- Marriage as a competition rather than a partnership
- How referencing gender differences it met with skepticism
- The misconstrued post-feminist American mindset that males and females are virtually identical

Venker believes the war on men can be ended if women stop fighting for something they have had for some time, equality, and embrace each other’s wonderful qualities.
