Synopsis

In these 13 essays the author presents a liberation theory for men that could also liberate women. Inspired by the ideas expressed in feminist thought, Stoltenberg examines the concept of masculinity and finds it to be a political and ethical construction based on sexual injustice. Attempts to maintain the fiction exact an enormous cost socially - rape, homophobia, pornography, battering and war. A social construct called "masculinity" makes men shorten their own lives, distance themselves from children, punish women in their headlong effort to be not-woman, and try to defeat each other. The author is the co-founder of Men Against Pornography.
