How Smashing the Patriarchy Destroyed Women

Guest: Dr. Carrie Gress

What is a woman? What is the patriarchy, and why do feminists want to smash it? Can women survive if the patriarchy is smashed, or is that the goal?
Ethics and Public Policy Center fellow Dr. Carrie Gress discusses these questions and more from her book, The End of Woman, with Franciscan University Presents host Father Dave Pivonka, TOR, president of Franciscan University, and panelists Dr. Scott Hahn and Dr. Regis Martin of Franciscan University’s Theology Department.
