Try the book, _The Myth of Male Power_, by Warren Farrell.
Dr. Farrell served for three years on the board of directors of the
Nation Organization of Women in New York. He has published several
books.
Two reviews describe _The Myth of Male Power_ as:
"This is One Terrific Book...as groundbreaking and provocative as
_The Feminine Mystique was decades ago." - Carol Cassell.
"A bombshell...It attacks the unexamined assumptions of feminist
discourse with shocking candor and forces us to see our everyday
world from a fresh perspective" - Camille Paglia in _The Washington
Post_.
