The article focuses on a meeting between feminist Christina Hoff Sommers and students of Dowling College in Long Island, New York. Sommers talks about her latest book "The War Against Boys," and her old book "Who Stole Feminism?" She also explains to the students that she is a feminist, or anyway was a feminist until she realized that feminists today have gone too far. She also explains to the students that much of the fault for this unfortunate phenomenon lies with women's studies departments, where statistically challenged feminists engage in bad scholarship to advance their liberal agenda.
