Women who wanted to be treated as equals but could not relate to the aggressiveness of present-day feminism, and men who never disagreed with women's equality and were nonetheless left out of a world created by radical feminism, could finally find in the book Lovism the word they were looking for to express together their feelings and views. Both could say now, I support both sexes, not one. I support the other, not merely myself. I am not a feminist, I am not a men's rights activist - I am a lovist.

Instead of the hostility and competitive antagonism between the sexes that extremists have caused, leading to a rupture between men and women while excluding most of them from all discussions about the relations between them, this book offers a shared conversation for both, in which they could talk with each other about each other - not under intimidation, but in mutual understanding.

Instead of the forcefulness of present-day feminism, what the book proposes is a conversation. Most men and most women yearn to have the conversation. To talk, in order to understand and to disclose. This is all what lovism as a philosophy of equality is - a conversation where both men and women, instead of blaming and fearing each other can reveal to one another their true feelings, hopes, dreams and pain, to create mutual understanding. A conversation upon which, norms and codes can arise through an open discourse rather than through dictation. A conversation creating for the first time, a shared philosophy of equality for both sexes.
