Product Description
What happens when a conservative Christian white male professor with a wicked sense of humor --stands up to his feminazi colleagues? The darndest things!
Professor Mike Adams at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington was an atheist and a Democrat when he entered academia over a decade ago. And as you can only imagine, he fit right in back then.
But ever since he saw the light, the full-time feminists on campus have had Professor Adams in their crosshairs. Their insults, taunts, foul language, intolerance, and public declarations about their sex lives have trailed him from the campus quad to the courtroom.
In this series of letters Professor Adams has written to his real-life colleagues, he exposes these real-life incidents to the general public with his trademark barbed wit. You will be praying for more professors like Adams.
Professor Adams hilariously titled-letters to his feminist colleagues include:
*I Found My Thrill in Front of Anita Hill
*The Malice Cowboy Cheerleaders
*The Society for Cutting Up Men
*Madam Ovary
*The Feminist Who Stole Christmas

 Laugh out loud funny July 11, 2008

Truth is stranger than fiction. After working at the college I attended for a couple years nothing surprises me. With a "Womyn Studies Department" right next to my building and hourly exposure to those devotees of manabalism I have returned from the trenches with little respect for feminists. Silly little creatures that produce an exponential amount of noise.
Thank you Mike for giving both sexes possessed of humor something truly entertaining.
 Think of these letters more as satirical columns than serious efforts as dialogue July 4, 2008

You need to understand that this is NOT a book against women, their economic rights, or their place in society. It is a satirical jab at those radical feminists that haunt present day college women's studies departments. These are much more (infinitely more) about political advocacy than they are about serious academic study and Mike Adams stands up to them in ways that they and their supporters don't really appreciate.
This is a series of letters Prof. Adams sent to a variety of the feminists on his campus. He asks them in various ways to justify their actions, words, and to resolve the contradictions he sees in what they say and do about some things but not for others.
Some of the letters he actually sent, others are simply creations for the book. I think you are better off considering them columns written as letters rather than looking for them as serious exchanges of opinion. Adams is trying to point out the absurdity in some of their positions, the hypocrisy of what they condemn in others while allowing it among themselves, and their shrill attacks on society in general.
Not a great book, but pretty funny most of the time. Unless you are on the receiving end of his barbs, I suppose.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RCUQQXOD9VJSS Bernard Chapin saying hi. I always enjoy Dr. Adams's bellicose manner and verve both of which are flamboyantly on display in these pages.

Mike Adams appeared on the Dennis Prager radio show on Febaruary 28, 2008. If you want a fair overview of his views on feminism before deciding to purchase this book, the free podcast would be a good place to start.
Adams's basic point is that traditional feminism was the idea that women are equal to men and deserve equal treatment and opportunity. And indeed, Adams claims in the Prager show interview that "we're all feminists" according to the original definition. However, as the original objectives came closer and closer to full realization, instead of declaring victory and moving on, the feminist movement adopted more and more radical goals that would have been unrecognizable to the original feminists.
On a side note: Please be aware that in the review of this book posted March 28, 2008, the two quotes attributed to Dr. Adams do not appear in this book (use the SearchInside! feature to verify for yourself).
I tried to Google for any quote by Dr. Adams where he talked about "women wanting to be the superior sex" and was unsuccessful.
The second quote ("back in my days as an atheist") actually appears in Dr. Adams's freely available syndycated column from March 24, 2008.
The thing is, that column is about Dr. Adams's attempts to organize a debate between atheists and Christians at the university where he teaches. In the entire column the word "feminism" doesn't appear even once. Thus, I'm not sure why that reviewer spent an entire paragraph trying to shoehorn words written on the topic of atheism and Dr. Adams's bad behavior from many years ago, to somehow represent his views of feminism in 2008.
Finally, if Dr. Adams's book is really as full of untruths as that reviewer believes it is, I find it curious that not one actual example from the book has been provided in her review; it should have been easy to produce five or six good examples.
