Description

The subtitle aside, most of the book is devoted to Wolf's view of what has been wrong with the feminist movement since the 1960s. Wolf objects to victim feminism and feminist "male bashing." She calls for validation of good heterosexual relationships, fostering leadership skills, and socializing girls to be less fearful about leadership and power. There are many in the feminist movement who will not like this book, but it will be welcomed by feminists who want a positive version of women's empowerment.
