It’s well known that IQ can change throughout one’s life, dependent upon diet, environment, stimulation. There was one case in New York where an accused murderer, a young black male, had a measured IQ in the high 60’s. Fortunately for him, New York will not apply a death penalty if an accused’s IQ has measured below 75 because of the issue of competence. However, over time, the accused was spending time with his lawyers, and hearing big words and complex explanations. When they retested him later on, before the trial, his time with his lawyers pushed his IQ above the threshold, allowing the prosecution to make it a death penalty case.
Whoops. :)
If only he’d been watching MTV instead ...
White men are corporately, publicly and less privately shunned. Women, ethic groups, behavior groups encouraged sponsored funded, endorsed, promoted and applauded. Meanwhile, where is the white man club? Most colleges students are majority women. The office of diversity functions like Gestapo. Try criticizing them in your work or school communities! Women are today’s aggressors in the mating game, easy pickings.
So young men of America, why should you excel? Get used to it. All fruit of Godless society
We continually hear talk about the “dumbing down” of America, but this has not just been a concerted effort by the left to hamper learning and introduce liberal indoctrination into the education system. It’s also a lack of strong fatherly figures and lowered testosterone levels... No joke and sad but true... The neutering of America...
That’s why many of them are checking out, a lack of interest.
In view of Obama's debate performance I must ask if this was intentional. ;)
Who do you think will pass the test for college?
**************************************************
They all pass the college entrance exams now ,, College is just a repeat of the already dumbed down high school we have now.
It's not just boys who are doing it to each other. Girls are doing it to boys. Google "sack tapping girls" if you have the stomach for it. As you said, the school administrators think it's funny and won't do anything about it.
And that brings up another point. Where are the fathers in this? Father's have tolerated and even supported a school system that allows girls to assault their own sons for decades now. Dads won't even let their sons in on the fact that it's a crime for girls to attack them. If something as bad as this isn't enough to get fathers to fight for their sons' rights, what is?
By the way, there are many, MANY more instances of girls beating each other up lately; A new kind of charm school, if you will..
The subject is about how boys are falling behind. Pointing this out isn't going to help the boys.
Oh come on. Young men beating each other up, doing drugs, killing and eating each other, buying hookers, etc is the fault of society for not providing them with an easy way to success?
I think it’s far better to ask how men can be motivated to start engaging again, instead of simply blaming them for not.
Changing the behavior described above would be a great start.
Maybe it is because as more women gain higher authority they have changed what they consider important, like liberal PC ideas?
Smartest people, in this case is not just the kid. Her parents were smart professionals and they were right there the whole way, making the girl do what the school instructed, never realizing what was unfolding.
