Heavy-Duty Reading Material - For Free!

The following is a list of academic journal articles in PDF format, now available from Sage Publications for free download! Don't you just love free stuff? I know I do!

As you will note, this material is in the domain of "social science". And it is my considered opinion that some of these items have counter-feminist or gender-political relevance—which is why I am bringing this to your attention.

    I recommend that you get onto the Sage Publications e-mail list. They will notify you whenever they run these kinds of "specials". A few months ago, I hit the jackpot big time when they made most of their inventory available for unlimited free download for an entire month!

    Man, I scooped up buckets and truckloads and shiploads—and yes, even a few of those notorious "shit" loads—of polcor, postmodern, radfem and related stuff. And believe it or not, I actually did read most of it!

    And let me tell you . . . it was quite an education! :*{

    Research not driven by a feminist agenda, nor a desire to give that agenda credibility will seldom finding evidence for it.
