Man As 'Nigger'?

Inequality This controversial article by Warren Farrell tells us how women's oppression has been analogized to black slavery, but how it is also true that men could be seen as "niggers" on the same level, even though the term has been used to imply a one-sided oppressiveness. As Warren puts it, "But what none of us realized was how each sex was the other's slave in different ways." Read it and judge the truth of it for yourself.

I've often heard feminists compare women's oppression with the oppression of African-Americans, and a superb book which demolishes the legitimacy of that analogy is Ellis Cose's A Man's World: How Real is Male Privilege, and How High is its Price?

Unfortunately the book is out of print (along with many other excellent books on men's issues), but if you get a chance to read or buy it, don't pass it up!
