Gender Equivalence

Some progress has been made on the GE book, but it keeps getting pushed back due to other bits of work that have taken priority. I took time off writing the GE book to put together a self published article omnibus book.

The omnibus book is called Tech Book 1 - Published articles Oct 2006 - June 2008 by Michael Reed. Even though this book is about tech, it does contain two gender politics articles, rehashed versions of two of the articles on this site. If you follow the links to the oldish articles entitled ARTICLE: Defining equality and ARTICLE: Attacking feminism: why should a geek care? you can read the updated versions that I created for the book.

[edit: In addition, please note that, although a self published book, it is still a valid, citable source complete with an ISBN number. If you are writing about or researching male rights, it might  be handy. Look over the PDF version of the article. It contains UK-centric information about affirmative action, female involvement in open source software development, education and feminism. Lot's of handy (and fully cited) facts and figures.]

If you like, you could buy a copy of the book by visiting my main website. Or, if you’re feeling a bit hard up, you can download a free e book copy by clicking here (PDF format 6.5 megs).

Last month saw two new, separate but connected, developments in my research for the book.

The first, and most outwardly apparent, was the creation of this website. I’ll use the site both to self-publish articles on the subject of gender politics and to post progress information on the book.

As soon as you are about to dismiss something, don’t.

The other change was that I decided to have a look around the web to see what other people who were interested male rights were doing. This is a big change for me as, frankly, I don’t do much reading on the subject of gender politics as I prefer to concentrate my studies upon the more fundamental aspects of humanities and social science research.

I’ve created this wordpress based site to contain some of my materials relating to the subject of gender. I’m not sure, at this point, what the eventual scope of the site will be.

Expect to see the occasional article and more information about my philisophy of gender politics.

The site can also be used as the central resource for progress information on the book.
