Anxiety about second-wave feminism,

This review is from: Sex and the High Command (Mass Market Paperback)
The invention of Vita-Lerp, a drug that not only allows parthenogenesis, but gives great orgasms as well, makes men superflous and sparks a movement to eliminate men altogether. Captain Benjamin Franklin Hansen of the US Navy finds himself promoted into the highest ranks of government as the men make plans to stop the women's crusade. Hansen must choose whether to put his faith in the loyalty of his beloved wife Helga and daughter Joan Paula, or to side with the High Command, who is so intent on victory that they would even consider nuking the United States.
I wasn't sure until the very end which way things would go; I liked that aspect. The male characters were sexist and lecherous enough to be despicable; the females were inscrutable or stereotypical. Very 70s. |
