Boys enter kindergarten lagging behind girls in both academic readiness and behavior. A majority of teenagers agree that boys are more disruptive...girls get better grades, have more leadership roles and speak up more in class.

In interviews, young men say that school never felt like a good fit for them, or that they got the sense that teachers didn’t like boys, and that this left them feeling discouraged or undervalued. By high school, girls are more likely to graduate on time — and more likely to go to college.

60 some odd years ago, it was deemed the girls were lagging behind boys in school. The curriculum was changed so that girls were given a benefit. Turns out girls learn in different ways than boys do. Girls can just sit still and receive instruction and be good with that. Not so with boys. Boys need to experience, experiment, and often find out the hard way. I say we go back to separate boys and girls schools through high school and teach them in the way they learn best. Uniforms too. And we knew better than to sass any of our teachers. Todays kids need to be taught respect.
Low T, low IQ, too much screen time, and told they’re evil for 16 years straight.
Funny, that's how I remember school in the 50's-60's too. There was always that girl in class that would remind the teacher of something that we'd hope that she would have forgotten.
The fact that boys are diagnosed with the BS ADHD condition and drugged at a rate much higher than girls are should have been a clue. Teachers are mainly mental health counselors now and their destructive college training makes them mess up boys.
Boys used to sit still through school too, but they took away the discipline and, with girls outshining them, too often the will.
Respect is earned.
So we have three likely outcomes.1) Fall of Rome.
2) Great Awakening (Modern day Israel)
3)Conquest by Islam (Modern day UK)
At least Gen Z is finally figuring it out. It helps that you have "bloggers" like Andrew Tate who's telling them what's going on.
Bring back Shop Class.
Parents push for it because after two years so diagnosed they can be put on the pertpetual SS gravy train.
The public school is sub-optimal for male learning and development.
According to the braindead lefties, being heterosexual is bad! But being part of the alphabet mafia is good?! What. The. Bleep.
The sooner the better.,
I still remember 1968 Presidential front runner Bobby Kennedy was murdered by a Palestinian immigrant. In the news media lead hysteria that followed blame was placed everywhere.
TV shows. (dumbed down to kiddie shows)
Movies, (New ratings system which unleashed the most vile blood soaked sex movies ever)
Guns.(1968 gun control law)
Pulp fiction.(changed their blood soaked covers)
Comic books. (a rating system allowed worse books to be printed)
BOYS in school being too masculine. It was then planned that boys would be given medication in schools to calm them down and make them more feminine. Glad I graduated in 1964 before this madness took place.
That’s just awful and sick.
No you don’t. You know the answer.
Men are NOT defective women. They are older, stronger creatures with one less rib.
Women were punished with hormones, cycles and childbirth because of the fall.
Men were punished with feminists because Adam didn’t kill the snake.
