A Refreshing New Vision For Men

Zubaty is a guy with guts and the willingness to put his truth out there, even if you violently disagree or think he's crazy. Ten pages into the book I was convinced he was crazy. Fifty pages into the book I was reconsidering, thinking he might have some really good points. One hundred pages into the book I decided that he was expressing a fundamental, critically-important truth about manhood in America that nobody had previously articulated before (at least to my knowledge). Zubaty compellingly describes how men have been indoctrinated, controlled, and exploited to serve women, children, and society. He goes way beyond previous men's movement books which simply point out inequities such as how only men must go to war and die for their country. He explores the hows and whys of what it means to be a man today. Specifically, he brilliantly describes how men are systematically and deliberately subjugated and enslaved by "female memes." Female memes, as he describes them, are thought patterns, beliefs, images, myths, ideas, and the like which cause men to give up their rights, which cause men to accept less than their rightful due, and which cause men to unnecessarily sacrifice themselves for others. This book will shake the very foundation of what the reader thinks it means to be a man. If you are a man, buy this book so you can set yourself free. If you are a woman, buy this book so you can truly understand how difficult it is to be a man in today's American society; after you read the book, your man will never know how to thank you enough for understanding him so well.

Shades of Philip Wylie!

What an extraordinary book this is! Written in a white heat that yet never causes the author to descend into sputtering or silliness, this book reminds me so much of "Generation of Vipers," a magnificently angry book about the myriad problems with the way our world was being run in 1942,written by a man named Philip Wylie. I read that book for the first time at age 21, and I can honestly say it changed my worldview - permanently, on some issues. Rich Zubaty's book, first published almost exactly 50 years later, has done the same for my perception of my sex, distorted as the image of we men has become in recent years, due to the feminist curse. And to think I once considered myself a male feminist! I like the way Mr. Zubaty refers to the female-driven desire for "things" as mater-ialism. It reminds me of the word coined by Mr. Wylie for the inordinate worship of motherhood in his day: Momism.
Of course, one could quibble with Mr. Zubaty's book here and there: All men are not as hard-working and self-sacrificing as he suggests; all women are not as selfish and mater-ialistic. But having said that, I must reiterate that this is a man-book, written not with a fussy and literal attention to every detail, but with a burst of uncanny insights about how we've been screwed for so long, and tremendous fluidity in spelling them out. Damn funny in places, too.
A final, personal comment. Mr. Zubaty, I served three yearsin the U.S. Army, and since then, for the past 39 years, I've been a reporter for my hometown newspaper. In all that time, the only Zubatys I've ever encountered were two or three families right here in my own small Midwestern home. Do you have any ties to Madison, Ind.?

Surviving the feminization of America

This book changed my life. Rich wrote"we are the biological inheritor of a body that needs prayer". Over the years I drifted towards praying to the spirit in the trees and forest, but when I read the words "Deer God". I was given an ancient name that rang in my heart and how we have been slowly sperated from our power and our masculine conbribution to humanity, by female memes. Rich's book rinched me out of the female paradigms I was drowning in, open my eyes and set me adrift. The anchor I found in my heart, has been prayer and wisdom of a circle of men. The female paradimes are far to powerful to tackle on our own.

One of the most creative and brilliant books I've ever read

I can't think of ANY book you are likely to read with as many original
ideas. You don't even have to like Zubaty's authorial voice for his books to
be must-reads, because they will get you thinking either way, and that's the
author's ultimate goal. I suspect he would much prefer to have three people
read his book and hate it as to have two people read his book and love it,
as long as the readers in either case will think about the ideas presented
and pursue actions in their own lives related to their conclusions. Sprint,
don't run, to your feminized computer, and order Rich Zubaty's stunning,
unique, depressing, hilarious, infuriating, delightful, but above all,
must-read book. If you only buy one book this year, make it "What Men Know
That Women Don't." Your life, and that of those who love you and those whom
you love, not to mention that of your society, may depend on it. -- J.

Wish I had this book when I was a teenager

After generations of exposure to feminist thinking most people believe we live in a "patriarchal" society which gives every advantage to men. Many feminist myths have become "commonsense" knowledge and the foundation of never ending political rhetoric. Women's issues are a legitimate topic of college courses. Men's issues are a not even a valid topic for casual conversation. The viewpoint has become unbalanced and extremely damaging to both genders. In "What Men Know that Women Don't", Rich Zubaty effectively critiques the typical view of female oppression and gender relations.

Zubaty went through some difficult personal experiences, and then spent two years in intensive study of gender issues. "What Men Know" is the product of his experience and study. In this book, he exposes the fallacies and deceptions of conventional feminist points of view. Women are not now, nor have they ever been, oppressed by men. As Zubaty points out, women on average outlive their supposed oppressors by ten years. Women do not have to fight wars, work in coal mines, or even fix the cars they drive. There are not many women in "power" positions, but when questioned individually, most women are not even interested in such pursuits. Feminists have created an anti-male world view out of smoke, mirrors, and erroneous statistics.

Zubaty's book is an attempt to turn the tables and restore some dignity to the male experience. Nearly all the art, literature, and science ever created was done by men. This fact is not an accident or the result of female oppression. By nature men are creative, spiritual, and nurturing. Men can be team members, or team leaders. These positive traits are not "masculine" qualities or "feminine" qualities but simply potential human qualities. After 100 years of feminist rhetoric, many basic truths have simply been forgotten. Zubaty brings these truths back into the light. With a more balanced understanding of mens issues, it may be possible to get away from the gender wars and get the focus back to human issues.

The book is well written and entertaining. It is a work which may really change your way of thinking and your life.
