Ten stars!
This book stayed beside my bed for more than one year...and is still there. From a man (Zubaty) to another one(us): confident, funny, realistic, paradoxal. In my opnion, will be hard to read a book like this one in the next 10 - 20 years. Great book!
Classic
An erudite volume, written in the most engaging way.
Feminism, greed, govern
men
t, big business, wars, date-rape, male depression and suicide are all inextricably linked.
How
? Rich Zubaty takes us through the history of the world amusingly and manages, through only a few hundred pages, to build a lucid picture of why we are socially where we are today.
His style ("jazz-writing") breaks every rule of author's etiquette, while sustaining full academic authority, keeping you in stitches, in anger or excitement all the way. He also gives you a sense of confidence
that things
CAN change in the direction of sanity. (If there were a Jungian archetype of Wise Benevolent Uncle, Rich Zubaty would fit perfectly.)
This book is written for men. Every man needs to read it, because he will find himself there, somewhere, maybe everywhere. Astute
women
, with a real ability to empathize with men, will find it's for them too, and need it just as much. Feminists and "manholes" will scream. They're about to discover that someone is now onto them.
This book deserves to go down as a classic marking the beginning of the end of the Golden Age of Feminism.

What
Men
Know
That
Women
Don't- by Rich Zubaty was written after a number of years of intense study by the author investigating and contemplating the question of men, women, relationships - and life in the modern world. This book is a bittersweet rant against feminism; something filled with many penetrating observations and warnings to younger men. The author claims every man has now been conditioned to place women first, and to work for her well being rather than his own. "We don't have the faintest idea what it means to be a man anymore," he says. "Our male role models are reconstituted women. They are men women like, not the men God likes." Zubaty identifies this new male as the 'Manhole.' Similar to the 'Metrosexual,' the 'Manhole' has no sense of his own identity but only exists to complement females and to buy them things. This 'Manhole' is the product of female 'Memes' - female behaviour patterns by which a woman endeavours to make real the dream man she once imagined in her childhood. Realising this man becomes the woman's whole life and the enterprise overrides all other preoccupations. According to Zubaty, the power of these female memes to influence society is far greater than most men want to realise. Now that feminism has become the dominant cultural force in the western world for 'good,' the female meme has gained unfettered control of the Media, Corporations, Education and Government.' Overall, a picture emerges of men being torn from their spiritual and cultural ancestry by women. There are no male traditions left to teach boys
how
to be men, only feminised institutions that want 'Manholes.' Zubaty claims this conditioning process begins around the age of seven. At this time a boy stops needing its mother and begins to search for its father - in order to understand how to become a man. But something else happens too; the woman (a mother or any other female) also begins to treat the boy of this age (psychologically) as she would any man. She will start to place on the boy some of the same demands she makes of his father: that he too must help in the effort to ameliorate her existential anxieties, her neuroses and emotional hunger (i.e., to '
love
' her). The boy is not equipped to do this and is confused. In a natural (old) society, this didn't matter much because the boy would be away from women much of the time, with his father and the other men, hunting and fishing, or otherwise being initiated into manhood. In modern civilisations though this is not possible. The father now works in an office or factory and the boy goes to school where he is taught - by more women. Without a man around to steer him right, the boy soon becomes lost in a female world - a place that nature never meant him to be. In such an unnatural environment, he soon learns to adopt the female behaviour patterns that surround him. He will learn to use his own neuroses and anxieties just like the women do, as both a petition and a begging bowl.
-What Men Know That Women Don't- is mostly an entertaining read and generally far from gloomy. The tone of the book throughout is something like sharing stories about women over a beer with
your
(male) friends. Zubaty's main theme is that the feminised man must unlearn his behaviour in order to lead a more spiritual and fruitful existence. I'm not entirely sure that I agree this is possible now for the majority of men, who are simply too 'nice' - and our traditions are dead anyway. The irony here is that Zubaty (in common with most other writers on this subject), by identifying women as the cause of the problem is then forced to conclude falsely that women must hold some key to a possible solution. In making this error, Zubaty can only return to the question of 'love' to look for his answer - an answer he never finds and never will find. But this should not deter the reader from enjoying this book. Much of the writing here illuminates the condition of modern men very well and is genuinely thought provoking; a few conclusions (regarding the origins of female memes) are based on a rather questionable exegesis, and in certain places I don't think Zubaty goes far enough. At times the author appears to believe (this is not made clear in the book) that a woman's behaviour is wilful, and therefore she may consciously agree to compromise with men in her relationships. This is impossible. I sense Zubaty may still have some particle of sympathy left for women - a terrible blunder by any man. We did not make women the creatures they are and there is no objective reason why we should consider it our place or our duty to save ('love') them, no matter how big the consensus of women and feminists is that demands it.
Five Stars. All in all, well worth looking up-wokinghamtrader.

Excuses
The legal system is suppose to be our servants. Most of the laws are written by a man. Man is the one who created child support and jail systems . This book seems to blame wo
men
. I believe the laws were created by the rich men were tired seeing their daughters being mistreated by men who would not live up to their obligations. As a result, jail is now a place of profit. I believe understanding the nature of the gender of the child would make things easier.If
your
man child calls mother first
know
it is because it is in his nature to seek a woman first. If a father would concentrate on the girl child you will find she is yours because it is in her nature to seek a man first. If one man in this world can overcome the legal system created by men, take care of his family despite the opposition of the woman which is normally out of not understanding a man ,then in time and with patience all of them can do it. Where are the masters of the house at? In my opinion this book will only serve as a dependent to men who want to justify their weaknesses. Without those laws your daughters would be watching their children suffer and die because some men not all men would rather feed his pride than his children. Something to think about.

Man Speak
This is a wild and intense read
that
only
men will
understand. He quotes Vilar, Bly and Rohr extensively. Much deep thought and research went into this tome of taking back manhood and masculinity, including his own experience. He digs much deeper than just feminism. He gets right to the core and anthropology of the sexes from prehistoric to present day. If you ask
yourself
what
's wrong with society today this book has answers.
One way to judge
how fulfilling
a book can be is it's used price and availability. It's expensive but worth every penny and as you can see men don't part with it easily. If they do they pass it along to their friends and sons. I highly recommend this book if you're in the need for some manly
soul searching
. It will clear a lot of things up that have been swimming around in your head.
