This article which I picked up from http://news.mensactivism.org/
Goes right along with my post a few days ago about how boys are not allowed to be boys and how it effects them.
The article http://www.twincities.com/ci_12910768
Starts by following an all boys class taught by a Mr. Mealey. So far the class has just made it from the first grade but my hat is off to this teacher and school for finally admiting there is a problem and doing something about it.
A few interesting quotes:
Boys' reading and writing test scores continue to lag behind girls', while girls have caught up to boys in math. Check out the names of the top graduates at your local high school — chances are an overwhelming majority are girls. Girls are more likely than boys to get a high school diploma in four years, and they outnumber guys 3 to 2 on Minnesota's college campuses.
Or this one.
"To attempt even to talk about the ways boys can be disadvantaged will upset some people," said Sax, who heads the Pennsylvania-based National Association for Single Sex Public Education. "If you suggest such a thing, you are considered an idiot, a Republican or both. And I have been called all of the above
Ya who does it upset? Why feminist of course. It isn't enough they have taken over in almost every area of life, changed the laws to their advantage. No this shows just how un-human these women are that they won't even spare an once of anything for even children.
A 2008 report from the American Association of University Women presents the opposite side of the argument, arguing there is no crisis in boys' achievement.
"We don't see this crisis with boys, at least when it comes to test scores and high school and college graduation rates," said Christianne Corbett, an AAUW research associate and one of the report's authors
"We don't see this crisis with boys, at least when it comes to test scores and high school and college graduation rates," said Christianne Corbett, an AAUW research associate and one of the report's authors
What?!!!!! Two thirds of college attendees are women and there isn't a problem in the feminist equality doctrine? Well of course not because it isn't about equality it is about female dominance so of course there isn't a problem to them.
This is another article that drives home to me that there can be no working together with these women and manginas.
The charts at the bottom of the article are also pretty telling and there are some good comments as well.
""We don't see this crisis with boys, at least when it comes to test scores and high school and college graduation rates,""
ReplyDeleteOf course she doesn't. The AAUW and other similarly minded folks see any gap in favor of boys as a problem, but a gap in favor of girls as a good thing. We see the same phenomenon with life expectancies, which have widened from being on par with each other as late as the 1920s to a yawning 8 year gap in favor of white women today.
How the AAUW can claim as it does in the face of contrary evidence is beyond my comprehension. Would bald-faced lying be too strong an accusation?
"Focusing on gender gaps, she said, diverts attention from the bigger problem — the divisions in achievement between low-income and minority students and their peers. "
This is standard "moving the goal posts". There are two problems to be worked here, one of overall male underachievement, and one of black / Latino underachievement, of which black and Latino males suffer terribly. The AAUW spokesman wants to divert attention and resources to another libtard hobby horse special minority, now that they've secured preferential bennies for bettys.
The piece of data that I'd like to see rolled into this mix are the specialized schools. Schools such as the Colorado School of Mines and other engineering schools have a heavy male enrollment and presumably high male graduation rates when compared to the mainstream fem-friendly schools.
I have heard that even though girls do better in class, guys still outscore them in standardized tests.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable how the femmies cannot see facts right in front of their noses.
ReplyDeleteAlso, LOL at being called a republican, as an insult. That's a legitimate route of discrediting people these days?
ReplyDeleteI think they can see the facts just fine Indomitable. They just say they don't think it is a problem and to them it isn't a problem they feel it is just peachy or in that 20th century liberal reparation way its all good to be biased against the ancient agressor. Therefor ALL males (even children) must pay for the imagines sins of the fathers.
ReplyDeleteHaving been a teacher, I can assure you that co-education has been damaging for both sexes. Boys and girls can barely handle being in the same room with each other sometimes. It's such a distraction for both of them.
ReplyDeleteI am sure it is, but the facts clearly show that the girl students have had an advantage for some time now. The principals of how these children are taught are more in line with the girl way of learning and it is showing.
