[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yea, the entire U.S. education system is now biased against boys. Starting in the 1970s, we rightly started to focus on girls because up to that point, things were horribly tilted against them. However, what started as pro-girl policies quickly turned to anti-boy policies. Schools rewarded what girls do well (quiet listening, non-violent playing, etc.) but punished boys for “aggression”, “fidgeting”, etc. Boys have been left behind. If you need evidence look at the boy / girl split at any top university (usually something like 45 / 55). Without the baggage of feminism and “white male privilege”, we would be embarking on a national program to help our young boys *succeed as they are* not as some idealized pacifist class of post-gender people. But we won’t, because even mentioning that boys might be discriminated against will get you immediately canceled by the Brahmins.[/quote] This.[/quote]
