I was shocked to see that he had died (he and I are the same age) but appreciated that his family have created this website in his memory so I can read it and learn more about this amazing man.

If any of the family sees this could they email charlotteord@yahoo.co.uk as I am trying to do a family tree. My grandfather was also an amatuer boxer out of the repton boxing gym in east london.

I have wondered for as long as I've been female why more people in this world aren't fascinated, if not thoroughly consumed, by the man-made disease that has been euphemistically dismissed as "the war between the sexes". Sexism is the root of all evil. Jack Holland recognized this with stunning clarity. I intend to place a bulk order of this superb book so I can donate it to libraries everywhere.

E-mail: kfarm2001@yahoo.com		 I also stumbled across 'Misogyny' in the bargain section of a Coles bookstore. I don't have much interest in most current feminist writing, because in its insistence on personal empowerment and an equality devoid of appreciation and respect for difference, it does not reflect the reality of women's experience throughout this world. In asserting equality between men and women, the reality of our heritage of thousands of years of experience as a species is ignored. This allows women to be oppressed even more successfully as their oppression is denied. It is especially disturbing when the word 'victim' is regularly used as a derogatory term. There seems to be such a cultivation of fear of being labelled a victim that people will deny the reality of their own experience.

Although he does not write from a socialist perspective, Jack Holland clearly shows that modern notions of equality between the sexes are tied to a culture of exploitation which really obscures the obstacles to women's freedom--other than the freedom to support and engage in exploitation themselves, which has always been a feature of misogyny. This is highly visible in the corporate mass media and in the business and legal worlds. Jack Holland is not alone among men who see this, though he is among a small number who have written explicitly about it. Very welcome is his appreciation of the differences between men and women, and the need to cherish those differences while acknowleging the need to overcome their use as tools of oppression.
