Spreading Misandry cover

A probing inquiry into the pervasiveness of negative male stereotypes in popular culture.

"In our culture, its fine to say that men are brutes. This book is a welcome antidote." Globe and Mail "It's about time! Spreading Misandry is a major achievement in raising awareness of how men are insidiously and indifferently attacked in popular culture." Everyman: A Men's Journal "Genuinely intelligent and insightful. Spreading Misandry is provocative and will help point the way toward social harmony." Donna Laframboise, columnist for The National Post and author of The Princess at the Window: A New Gender Morality "What makes Spreading Misandry a useful book is that it puts a small spoke in the works of the large and noisy machinery of moral indignation that feminism has succeeded in constructing in academe and the media over the last 20 years." The Sunday Independent
