These pages offer college and university students and teachers a course model and assignments on men’s experience in North America. The assignments are statistics – based and based on research books, some with Canadian data. Information from the US Bureau of Statistics and the Men’s Health Network (USA) may be easily adapted to suit these assignments to American needs.
Some of these assignments are intended to deflate feminist claims on sexual assault, sex abuse hysteria, media bias, boys versus girls in education, the mass media biases on men and women, and the silicone breast implant hysteria. Texts by leading women critics of feminism are included in the term paper assignments. Students who want to propose one of these term papers to a professor will find most of the bibliography and even the chapters in each book ready for research.
A professor who wants to teach a course on men’s lives will find most of the course contents, down to the weekly class contents, available on these pages. We welcome comments (no attachments, please) and J. Asher is available to lecture on teaching a course on men’s lives.
