The college application process itself favors girls- cultivating relationships with teachers for recommendations where they divulge all their feelings and dreams, getting involved in all these silly organizations. The system is dominated by women and rigged against boys.

Leadership positions at both k-12 and college level are overwhelmingly male.

Look, everyone knows… girls are better brown nosers (recs) and more organized (grades) and more desperate for social approval (willingness to participate in EC nonsense just to get into college). College admissions plays to their strengths (except for standardized testing but, voila, test optional). My DS is soooo much smarter than so many girls in his class who landed at higher ranked schools. But they were more able and willing to play the game. It will all work out in the end though.

Yep, people who play the game end up on top. Smarts are just smarts, and don't have much value after the standardized the testing days. Who's to say which is really smarter, but the distinction is small and there aren't many tasks that require extraordinary intelligence.

Boys mature later and are more durable. Most of these girls will end up as housewives trying to outmaneuver one another on the PTA and the like. If they are lucky. Otherwise they will have to grind it out supporting themselves while drowning in family responsibilities and getting fat.

"Leadership" at K-12 doesn't even matter. If your kid's school has a male principal, your kid will never even see him. The teachers your kids interact with all day every day are overwhelmingly female. In short, as the PP said, women control K-12 education where it matters - at the pit face - they control the experience from end to end. That female teachers have failed boys is certainly a plausible argument based on the outcome.

The best thing we did was to pull out our boy from public elementary and put him in an all boys school for middle school. We made a lot of sacrifices to do that. The school had lot of physical activity built in and teachers who seemed to understand boys. He was still a little immature in high school but now as a college sophomore in a STEM field, he is extremely motivated and organized. The school annually had a psychologist give a talk to parents to not rush the boys and to have faith that they will mature. My daughter does great in a public school because she was very motivated and engaged from elementary school.

What’s the standard of measurement for each extra O?

Do you have a son? Are you/would you encourage him to go in to teaching at any level?

So what? Kids do not have much interaction with leadership. Day to day it is all women. A lot of women dislike or hate boys/males(even their own kids) and blame them for everything. Just read this board. I would not want a lot of the posters here dealing/interacting with boys in any type of capacity.

My son has done great in public school with almost entirely female teachers. No one’s failed him. Expectations for behavior and academic performance begin at home. So many parents letting their boys play video games and watch YouTube for hours and hours every day and then complaining that the school system is rigged against them. Pathetic.

When was it that teaching wasn't primarily women's work? And when did the problems for boys start?

The attitudes have changed. The traditional loving mom type teacher we grew up with has evolved into a bitter progressive Randy Weingarten admiring man hater.
