Published in 1911, this book is a critique of our “androcentric culture.” Pioneering feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman analyzes the issues with a society where men and maleness is considered to be the normality. Our society is too focused on what’s ‘womanly’ and what’s ‘manly’. We divide the world into these categories instead of what’s most important: our humanness which distinguishes us from other creatures…

This book is dedicated with reverent love and gratitude to Lester F. Ward Sociologist and Humanitarian, one of the worlds great men; a creative thinker to whose wide knowledge and power of vision we are indebted for a new grasp of the nature and processes of Society, and to whom all women are especially bound in honor and gratitude for his Gynaecocentric Theory of Life, than which nothing so important to humanity has been advanced since the Theory of Evolution, and nothing so important to women has ever been given to the world.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.

Excerpt from The Man-Made World or Our Androcentric CultureThat this last is disputed by the majority of present day biologists will not surprise anyone who reads it and who is familiar with the nature of the human mind. All new scientific discoveries are slow of uni versal acceptance; and anything so sub versive of historic custom as this, involving so complete a change of attitude regarding the relations of the sexes to one another and to Society, cannot be expected to make rapid progress in popular belief. Time, study and experience may be trusted to establish the truth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
