{"product_id":"in-defense-of-women-h-l-mencken-9781523245222","title":"In Defense of Women","description":"American author, journalist and unrepentant iconoclast, H. L. Mencken believed that \"the average woman, whatever her deficiencies, is greatly superior to the average man. The very ease with which she defies and swindles him in several capital situations of life is the clearest of proofs of her general superiority.\" First published in 1922, just a few years after American women had achieved the right to vote, In Defense of Women considers topics that are still of vital interest in the 21st Century. Topics covered include female suffrage, marriage, prostitution, the double standard, sexual harassment, and declining birth and marriage rates. Written in Mencken's irascible style, In Defense of Women is bursting with controversy and caustic wit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e H. L.
