Personally, I like a man that acts like a man. I only believe in Anger Management for people (ALL people) if they are out of control. As a girl, I was aggressive, probably more so then most of the boys' were. I have a daughter that is also aggressive. Since first grade, teachers', principals' and school counselors have wanted her on meds. She has been "diagnosed" with everything from ADHD to PTSS. Now as a freshman, the aggression has slowed down greatly on it's own. My point of this...it doesn't just happen to boys and men.

Absolutely, they tried to get me to give my daughter drugs and I simply refused. It is possible to refuse.

To quote Nancy Reagan, "Just say no".

And you're right it is not just boys. About a third of my daughter's girl friends are on some kind of drug.

I prefer male anger unmanaged...au natural. We need more of the raw stuff, not the twisted manipulated pc version.

I think it is only a matter of time until this false paradigm of so called gender equality balance is thrown out the window by man or by God. It is a big fat lie being foisted by a socialist agenda.

You seem to be a bright person on this thread, so I challenge you to do some thought experiments. I'm serious here. I think good dialog and understanding may result as well as developing some method of working through the complex problem of dealing with preconceived notions.

The challenge is, examine the Sub-Sahara family structure of Africa and compare that with western culture as we have known it for the last two centuries. Examine the role of the man and the woman in this process. Campare the resultant society with the western society. Try to come to some conclusions. This will most likely take some effort in research. It may take anyone on this thread several days or weeks to develop and decent understanding of the examination. There is no right or wrong at this point, only degress of understanding. This is the sort of stuff I do all the time when I am not inventing the next high tech widget.
