Middle class males are too coddled

What the fuck?

The reason boys are doing poorly at all levels of education except for STEM PhD's when compared to women is because they are coddled?

Why do they say that when women are doing poorly its because they are victims of discrimination, benevolent sexism, or intellectual stigmas?

Is this fucking serious??

If he's worrying about male progress in STEM fields then maybe he should look at all of the grants, bursaries, and affirmative action programs that actively discriminate against boys and men entering these fields. I know that when I looked at the list of scholarships that I couldn't apply for actually effected my decision on what courses to take.

Asked why fewer men are taking science and engineering courses, Leath said he was not exactly sure but that research is showing that fewer males from upper middle class families are taking challenging math and science courses.

Um... Last I checked, men sort of uh... you know... dominated the engineering and mathematics (along with computer science) departments of universities. Maybe the problem isn't middle class MEN?

This article is stupid as hell.

Most Americans can't even do basic arithmetic. What used to be an undergraduate level education has now become graduate level education. Really today's undergraduate education, if you take away some of the meaningless filler courses that are just their to bump up tuition, is what in the old days would be considered to be high school level chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics. By today's standards you can call an old man with just a high school diploma an engineer. I bet, and I'm not even kidding, that most Americans these days don't even manage to wipe their goddamn asses properly. There's probably some un-wiped shit, if not a lot, in every American ass.

Quick fix:

Everyone with a poor GPA should be thrown out and be used as disposable sacks of meat in the military.
Get more Asians in and don't let them leave. They have the discipline Americans lack.
Stop all funding to liberal arts. Legalize rape of liberal arts women.

Seriously this ship is sinking. We need to sell America to China. That's the best solution. They have a better kind of society than America(better treatment of men, fair treatment of women). Let Chinese factory workers receive good educations at top American institutions and fill up those sweatshop factories with lazy-ass Americans.
