Are Women Superior to Men? A Debate with Shmuley Boteach
Shmuley argues that the American male is in a sad state and in desperate need of repair. Dennis disagrees, arguing that women have as many, though different, problems as men.
Major Points:
1. Shmuley argues that “the American male is broken.” Men have been taught that there is one gauge of success,the amount of money they make. Consequently, they are ignoring their wives and children as they pursue monetary goals.
2. Dennis counters that men have been taught that they are inferior and that women are superior. Further, men have been taught to control their natures, while women have been taught not to control theirs. Dennis further argues that men are more involved in their kids’ lives than ever before, even to the point to excess.
3. Both men agree that radical feminism has had a destructive influence on American life.
