Analyse af 'The End of Men' af Hanna Rosin

The article The End of Men, written by Hanna Rosin, focuses on women overtaking a world that used to be based on patriarchy and where only men knew the better way to a brighter, richer future. The article is of a newer date – July/August this year – and was posted in The Atlantic, an editorial Magazine concentrating with issues in the contemporary politics. The writer, Hanna Rosin, is an American journalist and a co-founder of women’s site called DoubleX. In her articles she focuses on religious and political issues and today she is writing a book on this very article.

The group of readers for this article contains a wide variety, since the topic is relevant to many people. Furthermore it deals with one of the biggest and most debated issues in our time. Because of this it reaches out to both male and female in many different social groups. To engage the reader should not be too difficult, since this topic touches so many different minds. Furthermore Rosin uses over one page to describe how couples prefer girls over boys – more or less every person in the world consider starting a family at one point in their life’s. And by describing how different industries is changing and increasing the selection of female workers for the more advanced positions, is something that affects a big range of male employees.Contrary to Hanna Rosin’s passion for women’s rights – hence the founding of Double – this article is not filled with over exaggerated arguments for women being equal to men. Instead she uses statistics and valid examples to prove her point.
