Crackling with controversy and sarcastic sense, In Defense of Women is H. L. Mencken's disrespectful look at the connection between the genders. Despite the fact that Mencken didn't support women's rights, he described women as wiser than men and referred to various examples of females' breathtaking ability and cunning. This book, first published in 1922, examines topics of current interest to readers, such as monogamy, prostitution, the double standard, sexual harassment, and declining birth and marriage rates. Written in Mencken's characteristic style in a straightforward way, In Defense of Women is a book that is always everlasting.
