[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is this affirmative action for white women people are talking about? Colleges are majority women, and a substantial majority. Some colleges put in quotas for boys. [/quote] Colleges are like that now BECAUSE of affirmative action for women over the past 40 years.[/quote] No, colleges are like that now because grade, primary, and middle schools have been accommodating teaching styles for girls for decades. Schools teach that boys and men are toxic, and nearly all teachers below 9th grade are all female. Boys are also pumped full of drugs starting in grade school to try to control their behavior that is just normal for young boys with lots of energy. Folds more boys than girls are pumped with drugs. It affects your cognition and can make you feel lethargic. Let's see how well girls would do learning from all men only from K-8, in an environment designed to teach how boys learn only, where they're taught females are toxic, and also when teachers and school systems demand girls be put on drugs chronically for years because they claim they have behavioral issues. Classrooms and sitting in seats for hours to listen to a female teacher prattle on about lessons is entirely a female way to learn . [/quote] As the mother of a 16 year old boy, I do not understand WTF you are talking about boys are not pumped full of drugs. There are also plenty of boys who do quite well in school. Schools largely teach the same way as when I was a kid in the 80s. Our society is suspicious of men who work with young children. Additionally teacher pay is low and people don’t want to go into the profession. But there are plenty of boys who are doing well in school. I will say there are too many parents of boys who really emphasize sports. Too many men use sports as the topic to bond with their sons instead of more intellectual activities. My son plays sports but school is more important. Do you even have kids? [/quote] Nearly 20% of all boysand males are diagnosed with ADHD by the time they are in high school and have been pumped full of drugs starting since grade school. You live with your head in the sand. https://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/01/health/more-diagnoses-of-hyperactivity-causing-concern.html Of course there are plenty of boys who do well in school. But that doesn't explain why there is now a huge gender gap in college with too many females on campus now compared to males. Clearly it means the education system in the country is gigantically failing boys and men, and it is because over the last 30-40 years they've swung too far to the other way and teach only to the way girls learn. It requires boys to sit there for hours in a seat to listen to all female figures teach from K-8 at the board. How can female teachers possibly teach young boys according to the way boys learn without bias and subconsciously catering to girls? Then when boys cannot stand sitting still for hours, they're considered problematic and teacher and schools demand them to be drugged in order to sedate them. Then we wonder why years later there is now huge gender gap in colleges when 20% of our boys are being pumped with drugs just for being boys and starting when they're in grade school. Boys are visual and spatial learners. Rather than sit there in a classroom to listen to a female teacher all of the time, they should be doing exercises like given a pile of junk and tools, split into teams, and told to do something like 'build me the strongest bridge you can out of the junk' without any instructions. Then you test them to see how they failed and why they failed. The discuss the basics of something like the physics of statics. Sitting there for hours listening to rote and dry oratory dictation is just not the way the male brain is wired to learn. Our solution for the last 40 years has been to drug boys instead of fixing our teaching lessons to cater to boys. [/quote]
