The Family Union

Abstract

This is the full text of a speech delivered on 1 July 2013 in London to the Annual General Meeting of the campaigning group Parity by the author of No More Sex War: The Failures of Feminism (1992), the world's first egalitarian, progressive critique of feminism. Central to that book was the argument that men's and women's interests are not in opposition but are usually identical and always harmonious. Here the author argues that feminism is a faith impermeable to reason, evidence or justice. In order to release society from the grip of that ideological orthodoxy, it will be necessary to form a body that represents the interests of men and women equally in the family, The Family Union.
