Confessions of a Sexist
"We are all sexists. None of us can claim to be the exception that proves the rule. And very few men have the right to call themselves true feminists." These are the stark conclusions of Swedish business consultant and recruitment adviser Lars Einar Engstrom, who describes himself as a psychologist - and a sexist. But the author believes himself to be at last awakening from decades of conditioning that left him dismissive of women's rights to equality, unresponsive to their claims to be heard, insensitive to the qualities they bring to the workplace, and prejudiced against females in management roles.

En mandschauvinists bekendelser
Pas på mændene! De forfremmer hinanden og holder kvinderne nede! Det er budskabet i den 53-årige konsulent Lars Einar Engströms bog ‘En mandschauvinists bekendelser’, som vakte stor debat både i Sverige og herhjemme da den udkom i 2005. Lars Einar Engström har arbejdet det meste af sit liv i topstillinger i svensk erhvervsliv uden at skænke ligestilling en tanke. Indtil det gik op for ham at hans 17-årige datter sandsynligvis ville møde uhyrer af samme støbning som han selv på sin vej mod toppen, nemlig mandschauvinistiske og kvindeundertrykkende sexister! Og da han ved, hvordan de tænker og gør, besluttede han sig for at skrive en bog om sexisme - til skræk og advarsel. Engströms bog er en ærlig og personlig efterforskning af de processer og kulturmønstre som er med til at skabe en sexist - herunder forfatterens egen mor! En mandschauvinists bekendelser er desuden et fagligt velunderbygget indlæg i debatten om ligestilling, fyldt med gode, konstruktive råd til kvinden, som gerne vil vide, hvordan man undgår at blive ignoreret, hånet og chikaneret af mænd på sin vej mod toppen. Bogen er oversat fra svensk og udkommer til efteråret i England og USA.
