Jane Ward: The Tragedy of Heterosexuality

In Jane Ward's book The Tragedy of Heterosexuality she discusses the constraints and miseries of straight culture, which tend to be frequently looked over. Jane calls attention to the entrapment, disappointment, unwanted sex, and countless daily injustices endured by straight women. While conservatives have long promoted the belief that homosexual relationships are unnatural, damaged, and fraught with dysfunction, Ward examines what might be gained from raising similar questions about the health and sustainability of the heterosexual status quo. She will be talking on the show about The deep puritanical roots of the misogyny paradox, the success of the multi-billion-dollar self-help business that reinforces the “natural” differences between the opposite sexes, The fast-growing and troubling “seduction coaching” industry, and the honest assessment of what makes a great relationship for any woman.
