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!

Ask a Mexican

Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
DEAR MEXICAN: WHAT IS ASK A MEXICAN ? Questions and answers about our spiciest Americans. I explore the clich s of lowriders, busboys, and housekeepers; drunks and scoundrels; heroes and celebrities; and most important, millions upon millions of law-abiding, patriotic American citizens and their illegal-immigrant cousins who represent some $600 billion in economic power. WHY SHOULD I READ ASK A MEXICAN ? At 37 million strong (or 13 percent of the U.S. population), Latinos have become America's largest minority -- and beaners make up some two-thirds of that number. I confront the bogeymen of racism, xenophobia, and ignorance prompted by such demographic changes through answering questions put to me by readers of my Ask a Mexican column in California's OC Weekly. I challenge you to find a more entertaining way to immerse yourself in Mexican culture that doesn't involve a taco-and-enchilada combo. OKAY, WHY DO MEXICANS PARK THEIR CARS ON THE FRONT LAWN? Where do you want us to park them? The garage we rent out to a family of five? The backyard where we put up our recently immigrated cousins in tool-shack-cum-homes? The street with the red curbs recently approved by city planners? The driveway covered with construction materials for the latest expansion of la casa? The nearby school parking lot frequented by cholos on the prowl for a new radio? The lawn is the only spot Mexicans can park their cars without fear of break-ins, drunken crashes, or an unfortunate keying. Besides, what do you think protects us from drive-bys? The cops?

Book Description
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Named one of Entertainment Tonight’s Best Celebrity Memoirs of 2023 As seen in The New York Times, People, The Cut, Vulture, The Daily Beast, Today, Bustle, Us Weekly, Life & Style, and Interview “No stone goes unturned” (People) in this memoir about The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Heather Gay’s departure from the Mormon Church, and her unforeseen success in business, television, and single motherhood. Straight off the slopes and into the spotlight, Heather Gay is famous for speaking the gospel truth. Whether as a businesswoman, mother, or television personality, she is unafraid to blaze a new trail, even if it means losing family, friends, and her community. Born and bred to be devout, Heather based her life around her faith. She attended Brigham Young University, served a mission in France, and married into Mormon royalty in the temple. But her life as a good Mormon abruptly ended when she lost the marriage and faith that she had once believed would last forever. With writing that is beautiful, sad, funny, and true, Heather recounts the difficult discovery of the darkness and damage that often exists behind a picture-perfect life, while examining the nuanced relationship between duty to self and duty to God. “An eye-opening firsthand account of religious indoctrination told with candor and sincerity” (Interview magazine), Bad Mormon is an unfiltered look at the religion that broke her heart.
