I hope you're serious and not a troll, because a lot of what you say is true. Young males are in huge trouble as they deal with the new feminist America, and it's not getting any better.
Is that too much to ask? I think not. I think this is the basic need for all women. A woman has to take care of her children and the home. She needs a man who can stand by her, support her decisions and give her what she requires to manage the home and children!
Im confused. A woman has to take care of her children and the home?????? Where is the mans place for you? Bringing home the bacon?
What, exactly, is this supposed to mean?
I tend to think that it is the family that should be teaching boys how to be men, not the school system.
Oh poor girl, I sympathize. But you're in high school you can't expect manly behavior at that age.
The only true manly men I have even known have all been conservatives, I guess partially because their parents are conservatives and protect them from a lot of this nonsense in school.
I'm sure there are a few studly guys on this forum. :)
You really need to get someone to work on spelling and grammar with you.
...These problems produces young men who are Mentally unstable. They are stuck in a perpetual state of childish behavior...
From your profile:
...I'm a homeschool Goth ...
Ok miss, now who is "mentally unstable" and who is in a state of "childish behavoir"?
You've got a lot to learn, ma'am.
"I wrote this essay a long time ago and I think it wold go great here: "
In your profile, you say you're 14 years old. Yet, you wrote this a "long time ago." How long?
It sounds familiar. Similar essays have appeared here, claiming that boy are not growing to be men. Yet, I see young men everywhere I go. They're playing on sports teams, studying academic subjects so they can earn a good living when they get older, and doing all the things young men are supposed to do.
Yes, young men need father figures to help them understand some of their roles for the future. They also need mothers to teach them how to tread the women in their lives.
You're 14. You have a number of years before you need to decide on a partner. The boys your age are just that...boys. The men are too old for you, so you should leave them alone, and they should be leaving you alone.
At 14, it's time to focus on your education, not on what you think men should be or should not be. There's plenty of time for that.
You're looking for a strong man. Be careful that this man who will "put his foot down" isn't a man who will plant that foot firmly on the back of your neck.
Go watch the movie "To Kill a Mockingbird." Pay close attention to the character of Atticus. There, young lady, is a real man. Look for someone like him, and you will not go wrong...ever.
It's OK, sweetie. I know you're excited. ;-)
And... NO MORE VANITIES. Not until you've been FReeping for at least a year!
". The schools make there curriculum based on a females learning style and behavior."
Its pretty much always been this way, at least since the late 19th century anyway. Not a big problem in itself, more of an annoyance.
"2. Boys who's are energetic are usually forced to conform to the use of mind altering drugs, such as Ritalin."
True. Much too much of that. Boys should be taught separately where possible, I think.
"3. Natural male aggression is not channeled, but suppressed. "
True, see 2.
"4. High divorce rates have left many young boys without role models."
Bingo. That, and the high rate of illegitimacy. These kids have no fathers, I have seen far more of that than I want to. Between those two factors you have an explanation of nearly everything thats wrong.
May I add some to your essay? The school system, in league with the anti-American movement overall, attempts to emasculate our future defenders. It introduces the homosexual life style to impressionable and vulnerable young boys. Or it demonstrates "safe sex" to young children, signaling approval of early sex with no moral code, even offering the counsel of the murderous Planned Parenthood if the condoms and pills they distribute fail, or are not used. Lately instruction on how to log onto pornography on the Internet and how to hide it from their parents has occurred in a public school!
Often teaching results in an increasing dependence on the government rather than encouraging individuality and developing innate gifts in our children. And anti-American rantings have descended from the college level to the primary and secondary school levels of late!
The aim seems to be the ultimate destruction of solid, traditional marriages, where women are the nurturers and men are the providers, heads of household. Coupled with the exorbinate tax structure, and now outsourcing of entry and beyond jobs, women are forced into the workplace to cripple the raising of children, making the home just a place to store a change of clothes, it would seem.
This has all been going on since the early '60's, but is accelerating at an alarming rate.
A very good read: "N.E.A. Trojan Horse in American Education"s
, by Samuel L. Blumenfeld, Paradigm
Don't worry about the ritalin baloney. You've got lot of time and plenty of learning about life to do, before you need to contemplate the opposite sex, and the problems that may/will come with them. You must get your own life in order first. 10 or more years sounds good. You sound pretty smart, so just keep getting smarter and don't worry about the rest.
Add to that the socialist outlook on equality. They teach all kids the same way. I'd rather they put kids who want to learn and are intelligent in a class by themselves and let those who don't want to learn mess each other up. If I didn't have all the others messing around I could have learned so much more; some of it was even interesting stuff I missed.
BTW: Are there many young people here? I thought I was one of the only young people here but am happy to find I'm actually older than somebody. Yeah!
After re-reading your piece, #4 isn't the school systems fault. How can they affect the divorce rates?
BTW- By age 14 most boys aren't supposed to be men yet. Boys naturally mature later than girls.
