About this listen
American society has become anti-male. Men are sensing the backlash and are responding. They're dropping out of college, leaving the workforce, and avoiding marriage and fatherhood at alarming rates. The trend is so pronounced that a number of books have been written about this man-child phenomenon, concluding that men have taken a vacation from responsibility. But why should men participate in a system that seems to be increasingly stacked against them?
As Men on Strike demonstrates, men aren't dropping out because they are stuck in arrested development; they are acting rationally in response to the lack of incentives society offers them to be responsible fathers, husbands, and providers. In addition, men are going on strike, either consciously or unconsciously, because they do not want to be injured by the myriad of laws, attitudes, and hostility against them for the crime of happening to be male in the 21st century. Men are starting to fight back. Men on Strike explains their battle cry.

A must read for all Men
Insightful explanation of the last bastion of modern day state sponsored discrimination and advice for men to find their voice and stand up for equality, fairness and respect.

A well written essay that gets it... more or less
Showing a clear understanding of the litigious minefield American men face, written at times, like a letter to the administrators of a school of a bullied child from an overprotective mother.

Powerful book
I was both impressed, disturbed and inspired by this book. This is a necessary book. All men and women who want to live in a just society where people trust and respect each other should read this.

Men need to be heard as well
It’s about time there was a book talking about men in the modern world and how life isn’t as easy as we are all lead to believe

It's not working
Any additional comments?
The audiobook is not playing on my iPod. Something needs to be updated or altered to make it work.
