[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not the existence of GOTR that is alienating boys.  It's having parents who look at GOTR and see something that is objectively harmful to their boys.  That's where the messaging of deprivation is coming from.  That's what they are seeing and internalizing.  Do better.

I'm a mom of two, both boys, and I agree.  These manosphere voices teaching boys to hate girls is causing harm, the existence of girls' programs is not. My spouse and I actively worked to add a science fair club to our kid's school, so we have walked the walk in actually adding things to the school.[/quote]

Again my 7 year old was not part of the “manosphere” when he started noticing these things. Ignoring and dismissing boys feelings is actually what drives them to the manosphere. And yes it would be great if all schools had a boys running club but it’s not fair to put that on the backs of parents. It’s the school that should ensure balance. If you object to this, ask yourself why. [/quote]
