"and the school system contract MD issues a script..."


This is the key part. Ritalin is a high enough schedule drug that you can't get a repeating prescription. Each patient is supposed to be seen in person each month by the M.D. who takes full responsibility - if that is not happening in a particular case then it needs to be fixed - if it's widespread then you need some institutional changes and some punishment.

"Given my award for a very high SAT score was a dictionary and the award of an African American who got 200 points less than me was a huge scholarship I don't quite see how that holds true.."

I can top that. 450 points more than the black female's SAT scores, .8 higher on the 4.0 gpa scale. She chose between full rides to UC Berkeley and Dartmouth. I chose between two full rides as well--between two of my home state's public universities. Most of the top twenty students in the class weren't even that lucky, while Ms. Affirmative Action wasn't even in the top 50 and chose between full rides to two of the best universities in the country.

This was quite a few years ago. Things have not gotten better. And I blame it all on that rhymes-with-runt O'Connor, the worst affirmative action hire in history.

"What advantages are there in being a white male?"

The advantages are relative- I never got anything specifically for being a white male but adding up all the interactions I think it's been easier because less people in business are prejudiced against white males, at least in my experience.

I think you might be applying your belief that there is a huge disadvantage to what you see and are thus seeing what you want...

The content-free fields of study, like Gender Studies, keep themselves relevant and funded by faking hate crimes, discovering heretofore unseen prejudices, forcing sensitivity training upon everyone, and rewriting degree requirements so that every student has to take one of their classes to graduate.

The education field is a prime example of this. I transcribe Special Education hearings and I have found that EVERYTHING has been defined as a 'disability' and therefore requires 'therapists' to fix them.

Did you know that kids who are clumsy with a pencil now have occupational therapists to help them? I'm not kidding.

Content-free - I like that. May I use it?

Sure, go ahead. But on the off-chance you become rich off the phrase, I'll be expecting a cut. :)

In the 80s and 90s the FemNags began to cry the Girls were falling behind the Boys. Studies came out saying the Girls needed help. So schools across America and a Sympathetic Federal Government eager to please the Nags began to change schools and Feminize them. Just one Problem. Boys brains are built on a different blueprint than girls. If you have children this should be obvious but to the Nags Gender is a Social Construction.

Last week Scientists in Canada observed Men and Women doing the same tasks and surprise found through MRIs that different areas of their brains were active doing the same task. Men have at least 6 times as much Grey Matter as Women's Brains do. Women have much more White matter. Yet the Nags, NEA and others persist in trying to make little boys into Little Girls. And we see the results now in our Colleges. Where dispite the disadvantages Males still dominate in Math, Science, and Engineering.

The University of Winnipeg in Canada is 80% female. If we continue to abuse our male children, chemically castrate them, demonize them because of their gender and subsidize the break up of their Families with insanity like VAWA we will turn the US into a Third World country with a mssive Criminal population. Our prisons are full of the product of single Mom homes and Welfare. When will we stop this madness ?

What kind of future does your daughters have if there are no Men who are educated in the US? What kind of Men do they have as Life Partners? If Marriage will be saved who will save it? Not the Men our voices are not heard in this culture anymore. It must be the Mothers, Grandmothers and our Women who correct this insanity.

For shits and Grins type Erin Pizzey into google and read what she has to say. The founder of the Modern Shelter/Refuge movement. We are collapsing from within due to the debasement of the culture and the destruction of the Family.

Feminism is more damaging to us than Radical Islam is. It has and is killing more American men. It has caused the death of 50 million US babies. When will the Conservative Women of America speak up? When will the Women of America demand the Media, TV, Hollywood stop the demonization of Men. When will the Women of America Tell the #1 Misandrist in America Oprah to change her tune or turn her off? Oprah hates Men, has never been married, has no children and has made a career of accelerating our culture's decline.

Choose Ladies Anarchy and Chaos, or Families and Life again.
I am stunned by the silence of our Women in the face of the Decades of demonization of Men and predation of our boys. There is an all out war against Fathers going on. PBS did a program recently calling Fathers who want custody of their children in Divorce abusers.
