Customer comments on this selection. The Pulisher's Weekly Review Proves The Author's PointHow liberal does the media have to be before people start protesting. The femin-eastas that have propagated these lies against men, have fallen into a trap that will, in the end, leave them sadly, emotionally bankrupt, old, wrinkled, lonely and more than likely childless. It's the ultimate goal of the Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood extreme left! It's the goal of the New World Order! Why go the route of Hitler, killing millions, if you can get women to stop concentrating on their reproductive role in society. Instead, let's get them concentrating on their orgasm and the power of their vaginas!!! Vaginas of the world unite! Down with men!!! Yeah. . . Very interesting and very disturbingIn this thought-provoking book, author and syndicated columnist Kathleen Parker sets out to make the case that the American culture has become increasingly hostile towards men. The attack on men, launched by radical feminists, has only grown throughout the years, and the affects of it are growing alarming. Who suffers from this culture-wide hostility, men? Certainly, but so do women and children. It's time to think about where the hostility is taking us, it's time to save the males! Overall, I found this to be a very interesting, and very disturbing, book. The societal hostility towards men has been a very obvious phenomenon, but what are much less obvious are the many of the effects that this has produced. Ms. Parker's analysis of the pornification of the country is quite informative, and indeed frightening. So, if you want to understand where America is going, and what is driving us there, then you really should get this book. I think that anyone concerned about our national trajectory will find learn much from it.  Trite ephemeraTrite observations in a skimpy book that reads like the usual third-rate newspaper columns. Why do people waste their money on ephemera from medicore thinkers like Parker, when it's merely the equivalent of junk food for the brain? This book has only one serious purpose, it seems to me: making Kathleeen a quick buck. Everyone should read this bookOf the dozens of books I will read this year, Kathleen Parker's Save the Males is the one I will remember. It's both that good and that important. You should read this book if you are a man, know a man -- or, I suspose, thinking of becoming one. You should read this book if you are a mother with sons or a female elementary school teacher or elementary school administrator. You should read this book if you have not aware of what is happening to men in this country -- for the same reason that a white Southerner in the 1960s needed to read Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. This book will awaken your sensibilities. Too often a book with such an emotional argument can turn into a polemic. But Parker does not allow this happen. She's a wonderful writer with a sharp sense of humor, which she uses to cut through our denial and not bludgeon those who think differently. Her wit makes the book enjoyable, her research gives the book its gravitas, and her writing makes the book too important to ignore. Everyone should buy and read this book.  nothing newNothing wrong with the premise -- but too "cutesy" and "aren't I brilliant" to be designated true scholarship. Lots of repetition of the same ideas phrased differently. This has become a trend. Ideas befitting an article are now expanded to make a book. The reader would get more out of a good Jane Austen novel. |
