Ms. Nice Guy Lost: Here's How Women Can Win

Rate this book
When the 2016 presidential election was over, Hillary Clinton wasn't the only American woman who lost. We all did. The Trumpian assault on our rights and opportunities seems overwhelming at times. But by arming ourselves with information and focusing on the battles we can and must wage, American women will win. Ms. Nice Guy Lost tells you how.

In Ms. Nice Guy Lost -- Here's How Women Can Win, women's personal stories are intertwined with facts, figures and news reports that remind us how far we'd progressed before November 8, 2016. They illustrate how much we've lost since that day, thanks to the efforts of Donald Trump and the GOP to roll back progress in multiple arenas of women's lives. And they outline what we must do today and tomorrow to regain our rightful place in American society.

Full disclosure - I used to work for Marcy.

That said, this book is a great read on how the state of affairs in a country where our leader is Trump. Very timely, relevant and insightful.

I was impressed by how thoroughly the book was researched, how readable it is, and what good suggestions Marcy has for improving the situation for women. I thought the personal stories interwoven with the facts and figures about how women have been losing brought the hard facts to life, very powerfully. The reality for women becomes crystal clear when all the various threads of conscious and unconscious misogyny are brought together in one book, and that reality demands action. Fortunately, Marcy doesn't just unflinchingly define the problem; she offers plenty of actions that women can take to change the trajectory of their experiences. I can't think of a single woman who wouldn't benefit from reading this book.

WHAT NEXT???  READ THIS BOOK!!!

It seems impossible that we are still having this conversation.  I was a supporter of the Women's Liberation Movement in the 60’s, I burned my bra, I marched and yet with every hard won battle…Ms. Nice Guy lost.

As I was reading Marcy Rothenberg’s book, Ms. Nice Guy Lost - Here's How Women Can Win, she highlighted how different the world is for men.  The subtle adjustments to girls and boys sets up the women and men we become.  These biases don’t just harm women but our society at large.

Ms. Nice Guy Lost, by example and statistics, lays out a plan.  For the mothers, and fathers, raising future women this will help you counter the gender biases they will encounter.  My granddaughters each received a copy of this wonderful book. 

I am an optimist and I hope to see the final obstacles for gender parity eliminated for them and all the daughters and granddaughters to come.

The author has included the “Postscript: November 13, 2018” that will inspire you to continue working for the equality of women.  

The time is now ladies and gentlemen…let’s get this done!!  

Full disclosure, I did have an opportunity to pre-read this book.  Once published I bought a copy for myself and re-read it...and as mentioned above, purchased copies for my granddaughters.  Read...and read again.
