Subverted: How I Helped the Sexual Revolution Hijack the Women’s Movement Hardcover – October 6, 2015
There is a newer edition of this item:
Purchase options and add-ons
Contraception and abortion were not originally part of the 1960s women’s movement. How did the women’s movement, which fought for equal opportunity for women in education and the workplace, and the sexual revolution, which reduced women to ambitious sex objects, become so united?
In Subverted, Sue Ellen Browder documents for the first time how it all happened, in her own life and in the life of an entire country. Trained at the University of Missouri School of Journalism to be an investigative journalist, Browder unwittingly betrayed her true calling and became a propagandist for sexual liberation. As a long-time freelance writer for Cosmopolitan magazine, she wrote pieces meant to soft-sell unmarried sex, contraception, and abortion as the single woman’s path to personal fulfillment. She did not realize until much later that propagandists higher and cleverer than herself were influencing her thinking and her personal choices as they subverted the women’s movement.
The thirst for truth, integrity, and justice for women that led Browder into journalism in the first place eventually led her to find forgiveness and freedom in the place she least expected to find them. Her in-depth research, her probing analysis, and her honest self-reflection set the record straight and illumine a way forward for others who have suffered from the unholy alliance between the women’s movement and the sexual revolution.

Review
Subverted offers a window into our uniquely disturbed historical era. Generations of readers will turn to Subverted when they want to know, "What was it really like back then?" and "What were they thinking?" And when they ask what turned the tide, books like Subverted and authors like Sue Ellen Browder will surely head the list.-- Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D., President, The Ruth Institute
"What a romp--through the offices, the backrooms, and even the personal lives that brought you the sexual revolution!" --Helen Alvare, professor of family law, George Mason University
"Browder combines a compelling personal narrative with piercing observations from her work in women's media, resulting in a book you can't put down."--Jennifer Fulwiler, author, One Beautiful Dream
"A gripping story that uncovers the dirty secrets behind the women's movement. A must-read for Millennials." -- Kristan Hawkins, President, Students for Life of America

About the author

Award-winning freelance writer and speaker Sue Ellen Browder has addressed members of the United Nations' Commission on the Status of Women and has appeared on hundreds of radio and television shows, including the Today Show, Oprah, EWTN News Nightly, and Fox News. She has published hundreds of articles in many national magazines and newspapers, including Reader's Digest, Woman's Day, the National Catholic Register and Cosmopolitan. As the author of "Subverted: How I Helped the Sexual Revolution Hijack the Women's Movement" (Ignatius), Sue Ellen has spoken at many pro-life conferences around the country, including the March for Life. Her latest book, "Sex and the Catholic Feminist," explains how the "F-word" (feminism) got hijacked by pro-abortion, "sex-as-power-and pleasure" forces and why the pro-life, "sex-as-love" movement is the authentic women's movement of the 21st century.
A graduate of the University of Missouri School of Journalism, Browder has won numerous journalism awards, including a “Project Censored” Award (sometimes called the “alternative Pulitzer Prize”) for an investigative piece she wrote on “the news that didn’t make the news” about deadly doctors.

This should be required reading. Everyone in life with an educated opinion should occasionally questions their assumptions. This book delivers an, until now, unaccounted part of our history as women. It is tragic and it is sad but it is also illuminating and provides a path to true femmenism. Thank you also for a healing book for those of us who bought into the manufactured revolution and have the battle scars to prove it. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
Wherever you are in your journey, this book is something that will move you forward. I hope it moves us all forward to a day when women are turley equal; not because we are told to be "like men" but to a day when my being a woman and all that it encompasses is respected, celebrated and appreciated on a level playing field.
I enjoyed this memoir of SueEllen's journey to the Church, as I am a convert as well, and the tribute to her late husband was moving.
