    Vive le difference!
  

*by G***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2017*

Men and women are different. The extent and significance of their differences has long been a matter of considerable dispute. If Ashley McGuire is to be believed, some now deny that any meaningful differences even exist.A 2014 article in the online magazine Slate, for example, was titled, “Don’t Let the Doctor Do This to Your Newborn.” The author, Christin Scarlett Milloy wrote, “Obstetricians, doctors, and midwives commit this procedure on infant every single day, in every single country. It reality, this treatment is performed almost universally without even asking for the parents’ consent, making this practice all the more insidious.”What insidious procedure was Milloy talking about? “It’s called infant gender assignment: When the doctor holds your child up to the harsh light of the delivery room, looks between its legs, and declares his opinion: It’s a boy or a girl, based on nothing more than a cursory assessment of your offspring’s genitals.”Look, I get that a person’s sex should not trap them in rigid gender roles. I’m the son and brother of strong women, I married a strong woman, and I’m raising my two daughters to be strong women. I’m even an ordained minister in a Pentecostal denomination that ordains women. I get that society places constraints on women that are rooted in cultural traditions and prejudices rather than in realities about their sex.By the same token, however, a doctor looking at a baby’s genitalia is looking at a biological fact, not just a social construction or a parental fantasy. It’s foolish to deny this. Unfortunately, as McGuire points out, “we live in a world of sexual denial. We are increasingly trying to treat men and women as if they were exactly the same. And then we’re surprised by the growing sexual confusion.”Milloy’s article is just the opening example in an example-rich book. As the examples pile up—from infant gender assignment to gender-normed firefighting tests to transgender youth athletics—you begin to see McGuire’s point. And as a parent, I’ve got to admit that it’s not an encouraging one.Men and women are different. Rather than denying this elementary biological fact, let’s celebrate it. After all, without those differences, none of us would be here today.

    A One-Size-Fits-All Approach Hurts Women and This Book Shows Why
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2017*

The modern feminist movement has gotten it all wrong.We thought that the way for women to get ourselves some respect was to insist that we be treated exactly the same as men.But it turns out, this puts a far greater burden on us than we ever dreamed.An attempt to treat the sexes exactly the same ends up being not androgynous, but rather an attempt make women be and function exactly like men.This leads to women being thought of as - and feeling - inferior when we can't keep up the same physical pace as men, or when we interrupt our careers to have children, or when we want to raise those children ourselves rather than doing something else with our adult years, or when we experience the mood swings, sensitivity, and depression that come with hormones that come with the unique design of our bodies.It leads to insanities like ... asking a mother of toddlers to go to war.  Refusing to give a pregnant woman a seat on the bus because "she chose to get pregnant."  Asking college women to behave like drunken frat brothers and then acting surprised when they get raped.  And on and on and on.  The "men and women are exactly the same" movement has a lot to answer for.McGuire, who used to buy into this movement herself, lays out these and many other, very depressing examples and gives us a little bit of analysis about how the "we are exactly the same" philosophy has led to them.  The book is alarming and, as I said, depressing, but I have given it five stars because everyone ought to read it.  The claim that "gender is a fluid concept" is actually an anti-woman claim, because it denies the unique things about being a woman, the unique vulnerabilities that come with that, and the, yes, special treatment that we, as a society, ought to resume giving that half of the population whose biology makes us uniquely vulnerable.

    What a thinker!
  

*by Z***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021*

I’m in love with this book! Even if you fall more on a leftists point of view on gender fluidity and how our society is shifting to better adapt to those few individuals choices, this book helps you fully process the two sexes differences scientifically. Women and men are both built and wired differently. It’s science. I also love how it focuses on how our shift in society to revolve more around these 70 to 90 different genders, is causing one sex to slowly become extinct in the way it gives to humanity and society and how it’s viewed, the female sex. I wish it would delve into the individuals who went through being transgender and regretted it, but maybe it still will since I still have about 1/3 of it left to go.
