Dr. Farrell, I wrote to you almost a year ago as a frustrated male graduate student in Sociology. I had read Myth of Male Power and it answered so many of the concerns that I had with the Sociological/Feminist worldview of gender politics.

You told me to get out -- and I did. I am now happily pursuing a career in middle school education with the hopes that I can educate and mentor children (especially boys) during a critical time in their lives and development. I am also planning to travel and see the world before settling down into a career.

No question, really. I just wanted to thank you for giving me the advice I knew I needed at the time. I still research and write about gender issues, but I do it outside of the academic establishment.

Keep up the good work, and thanks again!

Detroit is not that far from me! I think I will try to make it if I can.

Thanks again for everything!

It's almost like you have seen the response I received from Dr. Farrell a year ago.

Of course, when I brought my concerns about the ideology up to my classmates and professors, I was quickly branded a misogynist, rape apologist, and worse. You can dig through my post history to find something I posted to /r/MensRights a year ago.
