Can anyone tell me when National Boys & Men in Sports Day is?
The don't need one because for thousands of years, every day was boy's & men's everything day.
But you know this.
Some of you insist on being insufferable twats and pretending life is somehow especially hard for boys. Just stop. It's still a man's world.
So you want to punish today's young men for the sins of people who existed decades before they were even born?
This is what I don't get about people on this board. Young men and boys who don't know anything about the broader world yet are being raised hearing "Girl power!" all around them, and being told we can't celebrate boys, because that's sexist. How is that fair?
Misandrists don’t care. They want to punish all males, to include the innocent ones.

And I was happy to see an entrepreneurial spirit. They saw an opportunity to make a few bucks and went for it. I happily paid some teen boys $50 to get my car freed, and they did a great job.
“entrepreneurial spirit” ?!?
More like Western capitalist cisheteropatriarchy.

If I went to Science Olympiad, and posted a thread gushing about how impressed I was with the ingenuity, intelligence, organization and leadership of all the young ladies there at the STEM competition, I suspect not one of you would be repeatedly piling on calling the compliment misogynistic, sexist, anti male or yelling that "boys did good at Science Olympiad too" or "Why are you only complimenting girls you sexist pig?"
There are those kind of positive girl power threads all the time, and tons of negative threads that are overtly anti young men. There are constant comments and threads calling teen boys lazy, aimless, bad at school, and predators.
This forum repeatedly calls introverted boys as lazy good for nothings obsessed with video games, and involved athletic boys toxic and too immersed in the bro culture.
This past week, boys and young men everywhere happily and selflessly defied all these negative stereotypes pushed by so many women, including many moms. They helped their communities everywhere, clearing driveways and sidewalks 2-3x quicker than the adults out there shoveling, and overwhelmingly were the bulk of people clearing ice earlier in the week.
Yet there is a (perhaps small) group of women here and on neighborhood fb pages, who can't stand seeing the young men complimented for anything not even for multiple days of hard labor in biting cold that provided significant positive impacts to their neighbors and community, at a level and result far bigger than anyone else.
I guarantee that if all those thousands of teen boys decided to stay inside sitting on their butts scrolling youtube and playing video games, instead of going out and shoveling everywhere, that many, many neighbirhoods would still be covered in ice.
It is not sexist or misogynistic to for once give credit to our young men for overwhelmingly stepping up and taking care of their communities and neighbors.
It is sexist and misogynistic to get offended at the mere mention of boys receiving something so simple as a thank you from their community for a job well done.
I didn’t see this post before but very well written. I agree!
