When we read about Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty as little girls, our dream was to find our Prince Charming. Unfortunately, many women are still looking for him, and like the Princess and the Frog, they found themselves with the frog. What has happened to Prince Charming? The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence reports that one in every four women will experience domestic violence; an estimated 1.3 million women are victims of physical assault by an intimate partner each year. A New Male Nation: A Philosophical Collection of Articles About Culture, Sports and the Quest for Power provides insight into what has changed our Prince Charming into Freddie Krueger. To be clear, this book is not about male bashing; it is about a culture that has somehow influenced men to behave differently towards women. These selections are sure to spark lively discussions about how men think and what has changed. Using the Essential Question as the desired pedagogy, let us begin to pose the questions, probe possibilities, agree, disagree, get angry, laugh, and be moved to respond to these selections. Jiminy Cricket sang, When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, anything your heart desires, will come to you. It makes us long for a time that would allow us to believe that someday our Prince Charming would arrive to sweep us off our feet and we, too, would live happily ever after.
