'''The Victorian Fallacy''' is an upcoming book by [[Robert Brockway]]. The book makes argues in favour of a series of points:

* The feminist historical narrative is largely fiction.
* A high proportion of the population fall for The Victorian Fallacy.
* Men have not systematically oppressed women around the world and throughout history.
* There are no true patriarchies. The feminist notion of The Patriarchy is a myth.
* There are no true matriarchies.
* Both men and women have been active participants in societies around the world and throughout history.
* Societies can be seen to be exploitative of all of their members - links to male disposability
* Men generally seek to protect and give priority to the needs of women and children.
* The relative power of women has varied considerably among societies in the ancient world.
* To demonstrate progress towards egalitarian society involves advancing the political power and education of all people, not just women.
* Western society is returning to the historical norm of men working full-time and women working part-time and caring for children.
* When women want to take on typically male roles men generally let them.
* Ancient societies balanced gender rights and responsibilities.
* Any society that did not do this was unstable and would either correct or be replaced.
* Many ancient societies had an understanding men, women and gender relations that is today largely gone.
* Social struggle since the rise of agricultural has been a class stuggle rather than a gender struggle as feminists would have us believe.
* The industrial revolution never ended.
