[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We should be trying to figure out what we can change in the environment to help boys be successful. But instead people are eager to say "boys have themselves to blame", "boys just need to be better", etc. That approach won't improve things. We know this. When other groups struggle (women in STEM, URMs), we take a step back, question our assumptions, and ask what we can do differently. That is more effective. We should be doing that with this problem.[/quote] The reason we do that is because we can point to systemic issues that do put those groups behind. Men aren’t “behind.” They still earn more while not getting degrees. They still disproportionately hold a majority of wealth. Maleness isn’t disenfranchised.[/quote] There are many, many disenfranchised men at the bottom of society...people just ignore them.[/quote] There are many, many disenfranchised PEOPLE at the bottom of society.
