Summary

Do you believe women deserve all the same rights and liberties bestowed upon men? If so, then you are a feminist ... or so the feminists keep insisting. Crispin delivers a searing rejection of contemporary feminism-- and a bracing manifesto for revolution. She accuses the feminist movement of obliviousness, irrelevance, and cowardice-- and demands nothing less than the total dismantling of a system of oppression
