Opis

In the last several decades, the feminist movement has shifted far away from core issues that served the interests of all women, such as equal opportunity and the eradication of discrimination. Today's movement, though it still nominally addresses these issues, now preoccupies itself with an ideology that embraces ideas with which many women do not sympathize, like abolishing marriage and the traditional family and emasculating men. "Sexless" takes a close look at this shift in priorities, and shows how feminism is now working against the material interests of millions of women, including the very women the original movement sought to help and support. In particular, it shows how modern feminism's views on a variety of social issues purges women of their sexuality, as though "equality" can be achieved by making men and women sexless. This book argues that improving the lives of real women requires a new feminism that is woman-centered, rather than sexless.
