Good Will Toward Men 1994/2025
About
Good Will Toward Men 1994/2025 is a collection of interviews with twenty-two progressive women, most of whom identify as feminist and one of whom was the national president of NOW from 1974 to 1977.
They talk about fairness, social justice and respect between men and women as a two-way street.
Updated in 2025 with a new Introduction and three Appendices to examine and comment on the question of whether good will toward men has increased or decreased since 1994, whether equality and fairness between the sexes has risen or fallen, and what strategies and insights can move the world in the right direction in 2026 and beyond.
Praise for this book
To compile material for this book, the author interviewed 22 women around the country--among them a nurse, a psychotherapist, and an anthropologist. These women feel that in the battle of the sexes, certain attitudes prolong that war and promote sexism against men. They address such contemporary issues as why male-bashing is a disservice to women and how antimale sexism is connected to violence, unpaid child support, sexual harassment, stalking, and other social problems. Absent are words devoted to restating sexism against women, about which millions of words have already been written. These optimistic and intelligent women break through the wall of politically correct rhetoric to reveal judgments of their own, an almost infinite network of thoughts, associations, and lines of reasoning. Kammer is brave and wise in attempting to strengthen the ethos of healthy masculinity so crucial to healing the nation.
