Elisabeth Badinter is a feminist I can trust, for a very simple reason: Unlike many, she wonders and cares for the other side of the fence When feminists care about women and women and women and women, they dont have my trust, let alone my love. When they care about understanding others than themselves,( ie men) they deserve to be supported and welcome. Author : ELISABETH BADINTER, internationally known feminist philosopher and historian Book: XY - About masculine identity Examining changing role models for masculine identity--from cowboy in the 1950s to Terminator in the 1990s, from flesh-and-blood man to machine--this book suggests that men need new role models and that sufficient room needs to be left for the expression of male vulnerability, a psychic space that would accept attitudes and behaviors traditionally labeled as feminine. This new model, Badinter argues, may reduce the profound effects of homophobia and misogyny. Columbia University Press
