Spoken like a true incel. Blaming it all on women with NO accountability for men and boys. I can't take you seriously.
What can parents do to help boys in this new world where women and minorities are rightfully represented. The answer isn't to diminish women or minorities. I want to learn how to help my son coexist and thrive in this new world. I want to avoid prevent him from becoming an incel and recluse.
I appreciate some of the suggestions here regarding chores, etc. Keep those coming.
You are toxic. You treat boys like criminals in waiting while doing everything you can to tell girls they are awesome and can do anything (especially since the world goes out of its way to support them). Then you blame boys for being put off. The problem is you.

Have you ever met a kid? Boys are (usually) confident to the point they need to learn humility, compassion and empathy. They need to be taught a lot emotional skills in order to not end up undateable in todays modern world where women will chose to stay single rather than marry them. That’s why we’re ending up with these incels.
Girls, on the other hand, (usually) develop the emotional skills early, independently and successfully. Where they need guidance is building skills like dealing with conflict and risk taking. Skills boys seems to develop more naturally.
That’s not toxic femininity. That’s basic child development.

A mom at home.
Almost zero screen time.
Male and female friends, in real life.
A good education, either at home or in a private school.
Lots of fresh air every day.
If you're not doing that, you're gonna have a bad time. Bottom line.

They want to isolate and radicalized young boys and boys should be warned that those attitudes will make them undateable and friendless. The people behind the screens are not their friends and they aren't looking out for them.

I found the right wing incel. Be for real. Mom at home isn't happening in this economy. Public schools have better educated teachers than private schools that require minimal education and training.
I want responses from real people who live in the real world.
I know. Public schools have been doing a great job.
Sarcasm aside, your Mom at home is impossible remark is a myth. My family does it on low six-figures, but I know families that do it with Dad earning anywhere between 75k and 600k. Just scale your lifestyle, prioritize the important things first.
Public schools *have* been doing a great job. You seem to be suggesting otherwise as if it’s patently obvious. If that is your intent, I dispute your premise and dismiss you as being not a serious person, ergo your opinion isn’t valid.
Dp but the irony of someone who apparently can’t read any sort of statistic making the completely verifiably false statement that public schools “do a great job.” They certainly did you dirty, pp - good luck out there.
