I really want to get this for my boys. Plan on doing it soon.
I’m a woman. Having sons had taught me a lot about boys...and how much they’re not allowed to be who they truly are, thanks to feminism.
I’ll be damned if I let that happen to mine.
Jnygrl, I also have learned SO MUCH about males by having a boy, now 20, (and a husband). They are so different from us, and really quite wonderful.
I bought this book for the BOYS I tutor — the next generation. (I told them at work, “Give me all the Jr Hi boys that no one wants to tutor.”)I will add it to my collection of ‘Special Ops Military Weapons’ etc. books.
They are long out of print and kinda pricey now, but this latest book isn’t anything new, but dare I say it “reactionary” - “The Boys Book of Electronics” or Radio or Chemistry were first printed in the 1930s, they are really great reads for young and old. Every school library had those and similar books. eBay probably has them, but with this latest tome I bet they have had an uptick in price.
Preach on, my sistuh!
I am the mother of a 7 yr old girl and a 4 yr old boy, and I’m just always amazed at how they are just hard wired differently. Newsflash: Boys and girls are different!
We are encouraging them in their little traditional gender roles because it is who they are, naturally. Feminism is dead in our house. We are working hard to raise a lady and a gentleman.
