Gallop, Jane, Feminist Accused of Sexual
Harassment. "I am a feminist professor who was accused by two
students of sexual harassment. This book is centered on that fact:
the title is modeled after the style of tabloid headlines because
of the way this fact lends itself to sensationalism. While any
accusation of sexual harassment seems to promise a juicy scandal,
this particular accusation is more sensational due to the
newsworthy anomaly value of a feminist being so accused. While
sexual harassment is customarily a feminist issue, feminists
usually appear on the accuser's side. For a feminist to be the
accused is a dramatic reversal. What kind of a feminist would be
accused of sexual harassment?" The author from Chapter
1. (Ed - This is a reflection of just how sexist society is and
assuming feminists aren't sexist is as big an assumption. Like
many issues, if it wasn't the standard assumption that men are the
perpetrators and women the victims, we would all get a clearer
picture of what is really going on with our children, in our
schools and universities, and in the work world to set-up this
division. Making an assumption of guilt or innocense because
someone calls themselves a feminist or masculinist or mother or
father or some other politicized name does not warrant immunity
from responsibility.) Duke University Press 1997

Martin, Edwin, Stopping the
Train: The landmark victory over same-sex sexual
harassment in the workplace. The author's life typified the
Southern version of The American Dream. But when the men he worked
with in a railroad maintenance shop subjected him to extreme
sexual harassment, it turned his dream job into Hell on Earth.
This first-person narrative, told with the help of the woman who
married him and helped save his sanity, clearly illustrates the
horrendous mental, emotional and physical toll caused by
unwarranted same-sex sexual harassment. This book explores such
questions as: How does incessant sexual harassment
affect a victim's personal and professional life? What
kinds of physical and emotional therapy may help these victims
recover from their trauma? This gripping and
heart-wrenching book also examines: The powerful story
of love between Eddie and his wife Marcia, the woman who "stood by
her man" throughout his nightmarish ordeal. The bizarre,
Kafka-esque world of the night shift at a railroad maintenance
shop ruled by a gang of sadistic sexual thugs. The emotional
triumph as Eddie's cause and rights were vindicated by a jury of
his peers. Corinthian Books, www.corinthianbooks.com

Patai, Daphne,
Heterophobia: Sexual harassment and the future of
feminism. Heterophoia is the fear of and antagonism toward
heterosexuals and heterosexuality. Once confident in the potential
of feminism to create a more equitable and just society, the
author persuasively demonstrates how the efforts of some feminists
- members of what she calls the "sexual harassment industry" -
have created an environment that stifles health natural
interactions between the sexes. The trememdous growth of sexual
harassment legislation represents feminism's greatest contemporary
success, but this victory has dubious consequences - a world where
kindergarten boys face legal action for kissing female classmates
and men are sued by coworkers for offenses such as unwanted hugs,
uninvited compliments, or glances that last too long. The
Feminine Mystique, The Second Sex, Sexual Politics, Sexual
Personae, Bachlash - These are widely regarded as the most
influential statements of feminism ever written. Read this book
and you will understand why it will soon join this pantheon as the
most powerful and eloquent analysis of contemporary feminism of
this decade. Rowan & Littlefield, 1998
