About the Book

Why YOU Should Read Wo Men

If you are male of any race and have sought employment in a society that ostensibly opens its arms to you in the name of equal employment opportunity, you need to read the book to confirm what you suspected, that you are expendable, even irrelevant, and now dependent on the mercy of women who dominate the hiring departments in both the public and private job sectors, women who blame you for patriarchal myths that allegedly oppressed them historically. Using reliable statistics from such sources as the US Department of Labor and the US Census, the author shows how women, from 1984 to 1996, insidiously and dramatically revolted against the so-called white male patriarchy to dominate college enrollment, the employment market, and small business enterprise. He shows how they not only broke the mythological “glass ceiling” but made a “glass house” around their monopoly of the nation’s service economy jobs (e.g. health care, education, daycare, finance, high tech), ignoring racial diversity in the process and reverse discriminating against their white brothers whose majority compassion, ironically, empowered women’s rights through this country’s judicial, executive, and legislative bodies.

If you are a military veteran (e.g. World War II, Korea, Vietnam), you need to read the chapter devoted to how feminists have revised America’s war annals to take full credit, alongside men, for the successful outcomes of this nation’s wars and you need to concede parity to today’s generation of women – those females fresh out of college – in terms of the blood sacrifice you and your brothers, in arms, made to this country’s military campaigns. You need to wise up, and become aware that the literature coming out of women’s studies programs today rewrites history to diminish your role, as male, in America’s wars and elevate their role as equally exemplary in stature. This was the rationale behind the taxpayer supported dedication of monuments, the last three years, honoring female war heroes in the District of Columbia’s Veterans Memorial Park. No one doubts the contributions of women to war as nurses, communications workers, WACS, WAVS, and in other vital roles. The author gives women credit where credit is due. However, you will come to understand the exaggeration in feminist revisionism and the fact that these revisionists don’t appreciate the courage, commitment, or sacrifice of veterans.

If you are a minority, an African-American, Hispanic, Asian, or Native-American of either sex, you need to read the book in order to discern why you don’t benefit from the civil rights movement, but take a back seat on the bus to affirmative action behind Caucasian feminists who know nothing about real oppression. You need to understand that your rights to diversity have been subjugated and made subservient to the more pressing needs of these women whose lifestyle choices and career paths are regarded with greater priority than your wants and wishes. You need to understand that in the name of diversity you now share space with strange bedfellows who never experienced your discrimination and who, ironically, are descendants of your oppressors; the Scarlett O’Hara’s of society who lived a lifestyle at your expense—or to your detriment—during America’s days of slavery and segregation. Furthermore, the book reveals that feminists regard their oppression more importantly than the historical experience of African-Americans, Hispanics, and Native-Americans. The author discovers how the pioneers of the feminist movement – Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton – actively opposed the emancipation of black slaves in preference to their own rights.

If you are male and find yourself the recipient of a sexual harassment complaint at work, Wo Men will open your eyes to just how frivolous most accusations are and how the definition of harassment has been purposely expanded, over the years, to
