5.0 out of 5 stars The truth will set you free., June 29, 2006
This review is from: Enemies of Eros: How the Sexual Revolution is Killing Family, Marriage, and Sex and What We Can Do about It (Hardcover)
I have recently been struggling with whether or not I consider myself a feminist. Of course I love women, after all I am one, and I want the best for my sex, including equality. However, this book elloquently verbalized my internal struggle with feminism, and discussed its far-reaching destruction in conjunction with the sexual revolution. Looking back on my life and the lives of all the women I love, I can now clearly see how feminism has brought layers of degredation upon us, however unintentional, and I can no longer imagine how their philosophy was ever tempting to me. Kudos to Maggie Gallagher on an excellent book!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read!, November 29, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Enemies of Eros: How the Sexual Revolution is Killing Family, Marriage, and Sex and What We Can Do about It (Hardcover)
Every woman of every age should read this book! It examines how our understanding of sex, love, justice, equality, gender, marriage, family, children, and desire affect the lives of women - and how it affects the way men act toward us.

Ms. Gallagher reveals with startling insight how certain cultural assumptions affect our every day lives. She exposes the truth behind elitist ideologies and causes readers to really think about what they are taught and told. (Why, for example, has the sexual revolution left women in greater poverty and less sexual power than ever before?) This is the best examination of how our culture and our very nature has influenced our lives. (The last chapter is also a fantastic discussion about sex and what it means).

I am a young professional woman, and I have recommended this book to all of my female friends and family members. I wish I had discovered it while still in college, though its insight is valuable regardless of age. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in women's issues.
