Gender Wars: A Novel and Some Conversation about Sex and Gender
Part essay, part fiction, Gender Wars charts the sexual odyssey of a man called Fred Ferris, a dissident WASP heterosexual baby boomer. After thirty years in the trenches, from the Sexual Revolution to the barrage of AIDS and the collapse of gender and sexual civilities in the 90s, Ferris can see that neither New Age penitencies nor personal epiphanies will suffice. What will he do? What should we all do? Gender Wars is a daring and provocative book about the dynamics of modern sexual politics.

Not worth doing an in-depth review. There are a few valuable insights, but too many flaws to mention as the author attempts to concurrently combine a novel with his related personal essays and editorial op-eds. There are no citations nor prior authorities for a litany of assertions, theories and statistics.
It is not clever in terms of presentation nor literary approach. Read at your own risk
