"Earned Rights" is a provocative work by Kate Mann, associate professor of philosophy at Cornell University. In this book, she integrates feminism, philosophy, psychology, sociology and other knowledge to sharply analyze the social events that have attracted great attention in recent years. The cases involve the medical system, housework, sexual violence, public affairs and other aspects, revealing the gender injustice that can be seen everywhere under the appearance of freedom and equality. From this we will see how men gain systematic advantages and privileges simply because of their gender, thus suppressing the rights women deserve and causing harm to women.
In this book, Kate Mann not only provides a unique framework for understanding misogyny, but also constructs a vision of a world in which women are as entitled to attention and care as men.
Reader comments
This book made me see the harm done by male privilege to women. The cases and analysis in the book are very profound. I like the book's analysis of gender injustice and the author's vision of building an equal world. I was particularly struck by the excerpt about men's desire to be complimented, which made me reflect on society's different expectations of men and women. This is a thought-provoking book, recommended to anyone who pursues equality.
