| The Woman Racket: The New Science Explaining How the Sexes Relate at Work, at Playand in Society by Imprint Academic Magnificent! | | Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3W12Q090O7M23 Hi, I'm Bernard Chapin and I've decided to dedicate an episode of Chapin's Inferno--a wandering cauldron of politically incorrect commentary--to this superlative work by Steve Moxon. | | The Woman Racket: The New Science Explaining How the Sexes Relate at Work, at Playand in Society by Imprint Academic Biology as destiny - a devastating response to extreme feminism | This book is by the same Steve Moxon who, in 2004, wrote the book "The Great Immigration Scandal" - a work which exposed serious problems within England's Home Office, and eventually led to the resignation of the Immigration Minister.
This new book, covering a subject completely unrelated to the previous works's topic, draws on biology and evolutionary psychology theory, as well as recent findings of scientific research in other areas, to destroy the myth promulgated by radical feminists, of women as "oppressed" and men as their "oppressors". Along the way, the reader is given a "popular science" (yet fairly heavy) account of how the male DH (dominance hierarchy) begins with the male gamete's competition to fertilize the female egg, through the extension of this paradigm of male competition to the behaviour of adult males. Also, the "place" of the female, while lying outside the strict DH, is expained largely by the female's fundamental desire to find and mate with men of perceived high status (which Moxon apparently considers to include ecomomic, political, and social standing, in addition to the male's physical attractiveness).
Being a men's rights activist, what I really like about the book is its devastating critique of "radical" or "ideological" feminism (what Moxon calls "extreme" feminism). Destruction of feminist myths is infused throughout the book, as the other major topic besides the aforementioned, and includes, among a wide range of phenomena, topics such as why men are in such poor health compared to women, feminist lies concerning domestic violence and rape, and workplace gender issues. Each of these topics is tied in with the biological, evolutionary, and other aspects of differences between men and women
Overall, I find this book to be an excellent companion to Warren Farrell's "The Myth of Male Power", which describes the "what", whereas Moxon purports to give the corresponding "why". In fact these two books, plus Nathanson and Young's "Legalizing Misandry", will give the sophisticated reader a firm grasp of men's and gender issues, the "why" of our current situation regarding gender relations, and the extent to which ideological feminists have caused much harm to society.
An excellent read!
| | The Woman Racket: The New Science Explaining How the Sexes Relate at Work, at Playand in Society by Imprint Academic Product Description | | Steve Moxon's first book, The Great Immigration Scandal, led to the resignation of the immigration minister, Beverley Hughes. But immigration was never his primary interest: he joined the Home Office in order to study its HR policy, as part of a decade-long investigation of men-women relations. Not withstanding its provocative title, The Woman Racket is a serious scientific investigation into one of the key myths of our age ??? that women are oppressed by the 'patriarchal' traditions of Western societies. Drawing on the latest developments in evolutionary psychology, Moxon finds that the opposite is true ??? men, or at least the majority of ordinary males ??? have always been the victims of deep-rooted prejudice. As the prejudice is biologically derived, it is unconscious and can only be uncovered with the tools of scientific psychology.The book reveals this prejudice in fields as diverse as healthcare, employment, family policy and politics. |
