Female teachers have a different view of boys’ competitive tendencies compared to the male teachers who used to supervise them.

Unless he's thinking about single-sex religious schools, I don't know what he means. Women teachers have dominated public schools for generations. I think the key change was not having women teachers for boys, but having schooling take up so much time (in years and hours) and focus.

What we got here folks is a quintessentially American oddness. It is what happens when a Christian mindset gets spoiled. It is what happens when we try to keep on doing Christianity with no Christ.

> “- Slightly more than one hour after I told another class to lay off the unnecessary personal disclosure a student came to the office with a special plea. He claimed he lost his health insurance and could not afford his medication. So, in his eyes, he should be given a special exception. I mean, other people could just take their medication and shut up. But he couldn’t do so if he didn’t have health insurance, right? Wrong. I told him he shouldn’t have voted for Obama and tossed him out of my office.”

This part doesn’t have the ring of truth to it. In reality the teacher would have brought outa mat, placec it on the floor facing the WH and told the student to pray to the Allah proxy in the WH o heal him of his afflictions.../s

Well stated. That's what it eventually becomes, isn't it?

For anyone just starting a career, America has become almost exactly like the old Soviet Union, where party status was all, and in order to be someone you had to join the party. Aspiring men wanted to join the party so they, too could participate in the meager droppings Communism produced in Russia.

There was a news item for a few days locally, when a student at a historically black university was suing a fraternity for not letting him join because he was gay.

I guess he couldn’t claim ‘victim’ status because of his color, so he had to go for his second ‘victim’ status.

Did he ever consider that he might not have a personality that fit with the particular fraternity?

The story-line fits the single-parent (usually Mom) demographic, doesn’t it? When my brothers or I wanted to get our way, we didn’t go to Dad, we went to Mom. And if she felf overwhelmed, she’d holler for Dad, and us boys would run for the hills. But nowadays, so many young men have never had to contend with the authority of Dad.

I call Bullsh*t on the entire disability argument.

I've had my lower spine surgically repaired FOUR TIMES in the last twenty years. Each operation was considered major surgery, literally re-building parts of my lower back. One surgery had to repair a collapsed and fractured vertebrae. The damage from that collapsed and fractured vertebrae was so bad, I spent 6 months learning how to walk again. I also no longer have feeling in the bottoms and toes of either of my feet (Neuropathy from nerve root damage.)

I literally have to walk with feet that feel like they're "asleep" to a normal person.

I also have vision issues, having a slight double-vision with a dominant left-eye (even though I'm right-handed. Go figure that.)

I have Ankylosing Spondylitis that's tearing up my lower back both knees and left hip. I've had my right knee surgically repaired once. My left knee now needs to be repaired. I've had my left hip resurfaced once. It's wearing out, doctor says I'll likely need both knees replaced by the time I turn 60. If I'm lucky, my left hip will last a little longer than that.

And yet, every damn day I get my ass out of bed and go to work to take care of my family. Despite my physical condition, I'm able to drive myself to and from the local train station to catch the train into the city (Chicago) and then walk six blocks to and from my office.

Because I'm left-eye dominant and right handed, I've had to learn how to shoot left handed. I go deer hunting every year in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I walk myself down the logging trail of our property about 40 acres into the woods, and find my deer blind. I then wait for Bambi to come along. I'm a pretty good shot, I typically don't miss. When I bag a deer, I field dress it, hang it in a tree myself, then walk back to the house to get the ATV out to go bring my deer back.

Yes, I do all these things myself despite having a lower back that's been surgically repaired 4 times via 4 major surgeries, neuropathy in my feet, bad vision, and ankylosing spondylitis tearing up my lower back, knees and left hip.

By the way, I'm 50 years old. The next twenty years or so of the rest of my life don't look so good from a physical perspective. All the crap I have gets worse as time goes on.

So please pardon me while I tell these fat, lazy, government cheese eating sloths who've never produced a worthwhile thing in their entire government teat suckling lives to get off their asses and stop mooching off of me!

Lazy bastards!

That’s another very important element. Say 75 years ago, most boys probably had women schoolteachers. However, they didn’t spend nearly as much time in school (and related institutions like daycare, before-and-afterschool care, etc.) as they do today. They went to school, and then they were out. And when they were out, they could be around men in their families and communities, doing something useful, active, or both.

The isolation of children into warehousing-institutions isn’t good for either sex, but that’s what’s happened, and the trend is for more of it, rather than less.

I am 67 years old and just retired after a 47 year working life. I'm also a man who was born with the use of only one arm and leg (thanks to a prenatal stroke)and I see abuse of the term disabled every day.
Last week I was in the supermarket and needed to talk to someone at the customer service desk. A gent using a wheelchair was blocking access, chatting with the clerk who was trying to reach the paperwork I was trying to hand to her. I asked the gent if he could move his motorized chair so I could get closer. He responded with, “But I'm disabled.” That did it. I loudly replied, “Sir, you are not disabled, you are a (bleeping) crybaby. It's parasites like you who make things difficult for people who are truly disabled. Now move your motorized ass.”

The gent moved.

The young clerk smiled widely and thanked me.

I think it is all of the teachers who are either man-haters, childless or not raising a boy(s), or are just plain liberals.

I had little old Quaker ladies at my public school. Many we’re single and pacifists but they understood boys. They were even liberals but they new how to let us play and how to swing a paddle when the play got out of hand.

Then there was Mrs Heinline the imposing old widowed German lady. She expected us boys to be men.

So no, the problem isn’t women per se but women who have no idea what a man is supposed to be.
