They want to be a stay at home parent like you. Your daughter can support them.

Women created this problem. So much girl focus since “bring your daughters to work”, girls on the run, girls in STEM blah blah. Laura Bush is the only one that tried to invest in young boys with reading initiatives aimed at them. Feminization of the American education system happened. It did nor speak to boys developmental differences and needs early on.

Agree- The pendulum swung too far.

Well sure if any of what the PP wrote was true. Fortunately "Feminization of the American education system happened" is untrue and barely a sentence. The same is true of this "sentence": It did nor speak to boys developmental differences and needs early on.

What is obvious about the above post, obviously written by a male, is that men struggle to even write a cogent sentence. They brought this on themselves.

lol of course everything is because of Trump. Insult all you want, but you know PP is true. How many successful science and tech startups have been started by women? (Oh, that's right there was Elizabeth Holmes... hahaha.) Are males the only ones that are rich enough, brave enough, or stupid enough to quit school and take the plunge? Where's your Stephanie Jobs, Belinda Gates, and Ellen Musk? And it's crazy how women blame schools and parents for "lack of interest in STEM" when any parent with a son knows that boys in K-12 have been ignored for the past 20 years because parents and teachers with daughters have argued that girls are snowflakes who need to be doted upon in class because they can't learn math or science, otherwise. Woke whites always be name calling, blaming others, and making excuses—and then asking for female affirmative action and girls program this and girls scholarship that. Yet, Asian girls don't seem to be lacking but obviously it's because they test prep, right? So they're not allowed to get the white affirmative action... tsk tsk

Have you considered that guys create start ups because VC is a bro culture and backs males over females?

This. If the prevailing attitudes by the men in this thread are that women are evil and incompetent and limit men, why in the world do they expect billionaires who hold these same views would give women a dollar in the first place?

I have a son and a girl and see this difference. The current trend is that in areas where girls are weak it is taken as sign of discrimination and there a tons of programs that encourage girls. Same DEI nonsense.

Take math for example, even after so many pink this and girl that programs, girls are not even remotely close to boys in math competitions.

Now, take emotional maturity, planning, and introspection. Girls are about 10 years ahead of boys in these skills. These skills are just as important as math; however, these skills are critical for college admissions and boys have a tough time due to this.

It is ok, given enough time it would just normalize.

Except boys used to be able to manage this before. We have lost boys to online worlds. They can't or won't live in the real world. Parents, wake up and stop blaming the girls. Teach your boys sef-regulation and discipline.

You know the admissions landscape changed quite a bit. Anyway to you it is simple, boys suck. That is all one needs to know about you.

What you wrote is not even close to being accurate. Boys, especially White boys, spend FAR more time on the internet, and on dangerous sites like Discord, various spinoffs of 8chan etc. and parents need to get their boys off of them. That is what the OP wrote. The only thing that seems to suck is your reading comprehension skills.

Now people complain of it being “anti-male” to discipline boys rightfully for erratic behavior. I do think more boys would benefit from an all male environment, since girls are socialized to be more disciplined and still than men.

Counterpoint, for generations we kept women out of academics when they are far capable both there and in any thing that requires time management and executive function. The guys will experience discipline in their gigs driving for Amazon and Doordash.

As this comment illustrates, many people don't care about boys at all. That's the real problem.

Not really, truth is this is nothing new, kids who can't get it together have always been expendable.

Until we’re talking about your kid, who can’t possibly be expandable, because you’ve done an awesome job as a parent. Or can’t have difficulty finding a partner to start a family because again you’ve proofed their life for any kind of setback.

The point is males seem to have difficulty enrolling in higher education and getting degrees, regardless of what their grandfathers did. I think it’s worth looking on the causes instead of just chucking it to video games and being lazy.

We want people in our society to be successful regardless of gender, not settle some score.

Yes but we also must attach personal responsibility somewhere in the equation. Men undoubtedly have various social advantages over women that should result in their success. There’s something implicitly sexist that all these discussions derive at women teachers being the issue and not the boys who’ve had continued broad access to education.

Can you give some examples of those undoubtful social advantages men have today?

Totally curious what the imaginary advantages are for 13 year old boys today?

They said MEN, stupid. No wonder your child sucks. You’re an idiot and they’ve inherited your dumb genes.

Well this comment was pure projection...

Boys had been doing just fine in academics until recent decades. I’ll also note that the boys in advanced math classes at my child’s schools are almost uniformly children of immigrants. White boys have become low academic achievers. Slackers.

+1 In my experience the standards for women for behavior and responsibility are significantly higher.

Spot-on.

The traditional college is antiquated dead man walking

Boys are not with the woke program and are checking out.

It’s kind of like society suicide

Translation to the above: "I am the problem but lack the self-awareness to realize it."

This is the language you see among male adolescents online. I am just surprised the PP didn't use a term like "normie" to describe folks who are going to traditional colleges.

Is this because guys are lazy and don't have resumes so all they have to show is a stupid multiple choice test?

Boys are smarter than girls in science, math, and engineering. Girls need affirmative action to even get in. Any top program that is not 70%+ male is not using intelligence for admissions.

God the incels are out in force in this thread.

We get it, your DS is an abject failure and god forbid you blame the source (his gene puddle) so you need to invent a scapegoat.

I voted for Kamala, but I am really really really glad Trump won.

Just knowing the pain he is going to inflict on woke, holier-than-thou people like you makes it worth it.

Sure, Jan.

Probably not as that would require using facts and logic and it's pretty obvious the OP doesn't want to do that.

This +1. It's the lack of access to/difficulty accessing capital/angel investors etc. that women face that the bros refuse to acknowledge.

Why are they working 10x as hard for VC funding? VC funding is tough in general and VC investors like making shitloads of money regardless of the sex of the company founder. Everyone is working equally as hard to secure funding, but rather men are 10x more represented as company founders.
