Who Stole Feminism?: How Women Have Betrayed Women

The author, Christina Hoff Sommers, has discussed many issues with the modern gender feminism on how they are trying to reform American cirrocumulus, how the university campuses have been under the tyranny of the intolerable authoritarian dictatorship of gender feminists and most importantly the flawed studies concluded by AAUW and other women’s groups.It’s a very aspiring book to read and it’s full of facts and serious evidence.

This book, although old, should be read by anyone interested in social justice. I will definitely read more of Hoff Sommers in the future.

Great book, I bought it out of interest, but it's a great read. No tears, no marks. Brilliant. Plus it's cheap.+Rep

I'd like to write an intelligent, dispassionate, objective appraisal of this book. I can't. It takes all of my self-control not to write "THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!" a thousand times and hit "Submit".This book completely changed my notions of gender equality, and yes, feminism. It's rational, referenced and relatable. More than that, it's empowering. Not in a hollow, self-affirming, empty aphorisms way. Empowering in a way that equips women (and men, like myself) with the tools needed to address real inequality.Sommers' approach of facts backed by evidence leaves me proud to say: "I am a feminist."In all fairness, however, the book is not perfect. Originally published in 1994, while the core of the book is every bit as relevant now as then (if not more so), this is understandably a bit dated. Sommers is thorough and intelligent, but not infallible. While I would recommend this work to anyone (regardless of their feelings in feminism), it is important to approach this work with a mind which is open, but also critical (and to remember just how long ago 1994 was).

The term "feminazi" was found after searching for something totally unrelated on Google. Not knowing what the term meant, I searched for more information and a reference was made to this book. I read the reviews, and thought it would make good reading.A truly excellent read, and as one of the cover review states, Miss Sommers simply rams home the truth, through all the false statistics and lies that have permeated the subject matter. Example follows example of selective statistical analysis, and more worrying, the hijacking of US academia by this mindset. This mindset is alive and well, and growing nicely in the UK.If anyone argues against the points made in this book, then please do it with real case facts and figures, not just opinion and ideology.Some of the examples given had me laughing out loud - they are that good.

Absolutely wonderful. With an extraordinary level of journalistic integrity (rare these days) Christina has tracked down elusive studies, rogue statistical analysis, wild extrapolations and found where they began, who created them and how they were used. Truly enlightening. Scholarly, de-void of frivolous and provocative opinion (un-like the standard gender-feminist outpourings) and, in-spite of the weight of her account, it is light-hearted and enjoyable.I cannot recommend this book enough.

Sommers writes well as usual, unearthing the lies and half truths which delivered the American education system into the hands of so called 'feminists', who, by their shocking and sadistic behaviour, should be described more accurately as 'FemiNazi' than anything human or humane. The subject of the book, the abuse and destruction of the school/college American male, is even more shocking when one keeps in mind that it is happening NOW, in the 'land of the free', and its ignorance, arrogance and misandry is all perfectly legal. She does attempt to end on a positive note but the title of the follow-up 'The War Against Boys' says it all.

Excellent book. Highly recommended, especially if you are about to do a gender studies.course. If you have already started the course you will be beyond help, indoctrinated and automatically dismissing alternative point of view.
