[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]14:11 here. I've been watching this glorification of girls from the outside and am sickened. And I have 4 kids. Because on way is this good for girls or boys. [/quote]

Historically speaking, how many generations has this societal glorification of girls been in place?

DP.  I didn’t think that it’s really glorification of girls.  It’s all this stuff that started in the 90’s, trying to get girls into tech one sports and camping and all sorts of things that boys were doing.

But now it’s not only perpetuated, it’s starting much younger.  So, now, instead of telling 16 & 17 year old girls that can be just as good at math and science as the boys are, you are telling 6 & 7 year old boys and girls that girls can be whatever they want to be.  And the little boys are like, “what?”

Frankly, I also think that a lot of elementary school teachers are former sorority girls who completely forgot there were going to be roughhousing little boys in their classrooms.
