Book Description
Are you tired of being told that you're privileged just because you're a man? Are you confused about the constant mixed messages coming from society about what it means to be a man? Do you feel like your voice is being silenced in today's feminist-driven narratives? "Soccer Moms Gone Wild: How Feminism Hijacked America" is a wake-up call for all those who believe in the traditional values of masculinity and the importance of recognizing the challenges faced by men in today's society. This book examines: • How societal norms and values have increasingly favored female perspectives and interests at the expense of men’s welfare. • The growing educational achievement gap where boys are falling behind in schools, attributing factors to teaching styles, curriculum, and disciplinary policies that may favor girls. • Bias in family courts, particularly in divorce and custody battles, where men often face uphill battles for equal rights to child custody and fair financial settlements. • The portrayal of men in the media, from incompetent fathers to perpetual aggressors, and the impact of this on societal perceptions and self-image. • Health and well-being disparities, highlighting disparities in health funding and support, such as lesser awareness and resources for male mental health issues and higher male suicide rates. • Workplace deaths and injuries, addressing the overlooked issue of male-dominated professions having higher rates of workplace fatalities and injuries. • The myth of male privilege and the statistical and everyday challenges faced by men, such as homelessness, life expectancy, and victimization in violent crimes. • Why only men are required to register for selective services, reflecting on this as a symbol of societal expectations and male disposability. If you want to understand the impact of feminism on today's society and reclaim your voice as a man, buy this book today. You won't be able to put it down!

The Reception and Performance of Euripides' Herakles
Author: Kathleen Riley
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191560014
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
Euripides' Herakles, which tells the story of the hero's sudden descent into filicidal madness, is one of the least familiar and least performed plays in the Greek tragic canon. Kathleen Riley explores its reception and performance history from the fifth century BC to AD 2006. Her focus is upon changing ideas of Heraklean madness, its causes, its consequences, and its therapy. Writers subsequent to Euripides have tried to 'reason' or make sense of the madness, often in accordance with contemporary thinking on mental illness. She concurrently explores how these attempts have, in the process, necessarily entailed redefining Herakles' heroism. Riley demonstrates that, in spite of its relatively infrequent staging, the Herakles has always surfaced in historically charged circumstances - Nero's Rome, Shakespeare's England, Freud's Vienna, Cold-War and post-9/11 America - and has had an undeniable impact on the history of ideas. As an analysis of heroism in crisis, a tragedy about the greatest of heroes facing an abyss of despair but ultimately finding redemption through human love and friendship, the play resonates powerfully with individuals and communities at historical and ethical crossroads.

Survival of the Thickest
Author: Michelle Buteau
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982122595
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
*Soon to be a comedy series on Netflix!* From the stand-up comedian, actress, and host beloved for her cheeky swagger, unique voice, and unapologetic frankness comes a book of “zesty and hilarious” (Publishers Weekly) essays for fans of Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me by Mindy Kaling and We’re Going to Need More Wine by Gabrielle Union. If you’ve watched television or movies in the past couple of years, you’ve seen Michelle Buteau. With scene-stealing roles in Always Be My Maybe, First Wives Club, Someone Great, Russian Doll, and Tales of the City; a reality TV show and breakthrough stand-up specials, including her headlining show Welcome to Buteaupia on Netflix; and two podcasts (Late Night Whenever and Adulting), Michelle’s star is on the rise. You’d be forgiven for thinking the road to success—or adulthood or financial stability or self-acceptance or marriage or motherhood—has been easy, but you’d be wrong. Now, in Survival of the Thickest, Michelle reflects on growing up Caribbean, Catholic, and thick in New Jersey, going to college in Miami (where everyone smells like pineapple), her many friendship and dating disasters, working as a newsroom editor during 9/11, getting started in stand-up opening for male strippers, marrying into her husband’s Dutch family, IVF and surrogacy, motherhood, chosen family, and what it feels like to have a full heart, tight jeans, and stardom finally in her grasp.
