Manliness Needs to Make a Comeback

Regarding the education of American boys, the news of late seems rather bleak: our boys are struggling in school. As Richard Reeves of the American Institute for Boys and Men points out, 45,000 fewer boys than girls are graduating each year from high school, amounting to a gender gap of 6%. The gender gap in higher education is even wider, with young men earning only 42% of the degrees. In the average school district, according to Reeves, boys are almost a grade level behind girls in English language arts.

  2. i wish that they could bring back scouting the way it use to be. it taught young men strong moral values, a sense of chivalry and self sufficiency that has been lost today in this time.
    it's not all about me, it's all about helping others. that's what real men do.
    i don't do anything for myself, i do it for my family and neighbors. if it was not for them i would be a bum sleeping under a bridge.

  3. "45,000 fewer boys than girls are graduating each year from high school". So when 45,000 boys become trans-girls the numbers will be even.

    "Nationally, women make up 57.3% of bachelor’s degree recipients but only 38.6% of STEM bachelor’s degree recipients"


    IOW, women get useless degrees and work in HR or some compliance job.

  5. Absolutely, but our educational system will have to be completely overhauled if not torn asunder and rebuilt from scratch and I don't see that happening in 4 yrs. Good old fashioned reading, writing, and arithmetic has to be the basis with a complete lack of this dei bullshit. Two bathrooms, everyone dresses properly as to their sex, and the pledge said every morning before class. That's a start, but none of it will work if it doesn't start at home! There's your problem! There's a lot of parents that support dei, trans philosophy, blm and the rest of that garbage. Huge mountain of crap to get over in just 4 yrs. This has to be a long-term plan to hold the 3 branches of government for longer than 4 yrs and the Republicans just aren't up to it! But yeah, men need to be men again and girls need to be girls again. Let's take some of that money we're blowing on Ukraine, dig in, and change this mess back to what it used to be! The greatest country in the world!

  6. When a field becomes saturated with women, men leave. News at 11! "Higher" education has been successfully feminized, and men have consequently stopped attending, in droves. The consequences are manifold, and too many for one comment. But yeah. Feminism, and men's toleration thereof, ruins everything. Anyone shocked by this hasn't got the sense God almighty gave to a particularly dim goose.
    There's a reason PUA's and the manosphere has been so successful. Younger male millennials (zillenials, really), Gen-Z, and even older members of gen-alpha are looking for truth in a world of lies. God willing they'll find Christ, and not the churchian version, while they're hunting for the red pill.

  7. I can happily say my 17 year old grandson will be graduating from HS this year as a junior... Then he will be attending a trade/tech school for electrical and HVAC... I had him catching a ball by the time he could stand up and he has played on his school's football teams since he was in 8th grade, 2 years of recreational football and baseball before that.
    He's not wasting his time or money on some college that won't teach him shit about making a real honest living for his future.
