Why The Boy Crisis Misses the Mark on Solutions, and How Masculine Presence Can Provide the Answer

I think the big issue nobody seems to be willing to address is the blatant discrimination against boys and gynocentric favoritism of girls.

For example in the U.S., feminists won legislation that provided the authority and funding to focus on girls in K-12 education, and boys started falling behind soon after. Add to that we have “no boys allowed” college prep programs but of course no “no girls allowed” programs. Many colleges offer women only scholarships but no male only scholarships. The Boy Scouts now allow girls, compromising programming for boys, but of course the Girl Scouts doesn’t allow boys.

Such discriminatory double standards go on and on. We can’t address the problems boys face if we are unwilling to acknowledge the discrimination behind many of these issues.

How about we end the sexist programs giving schools and colleges money for specifically enforcing gender quotas?

Hows about we ban radical feminist misandry and start labeling it terrorism like it should be labeled?

You know what would be cool? After school clubs with dads.

The boy crisis is a story of absolute neglect by the system, which is also being promoted and eventually embraced by most parents for receiving less appropriate care about their future. I.e. it's a given that parents these days invest more time, regardless what they said, in instilling proper values to their daughters and teaching them that school and educational achievement is important - even though girls do better at school on average for a decades already and the educational system is rigged to favor girls and women anyways, while boys will be pitted in an environment where they'll actually do WORSE than they would if they simply continued homeschooling with their parents, primarily as a result of so-called socialization with problematic kids overwhelmingly coming from single parent households, which is yet another topic feminism is directly responsible for and it became de-facto standard in our society today, because new generations simply take cues from their own home and find it normal that a man is an optional parent, if not even that a man shouldn't bother much with parenting, or to not bother at all.

But let's go back to the topic. Educational system and system as a whole sends a clear message to parents that, if their daughter is a bad student or a dropout, she's going to have a miserable life so they NEED to make sure that doesn't happen. This is why parents will behave in such manner without even noticing.

To understand it better if you didn't get the drift, think of it in the same manner when it comes to driving a car. Society not only imposes unfair treatment to young men in charging them more to drive, i.e. ramping up insurance expenses regardless of their individual behavior but based on "demographics statistics" for all young men, further discouraging any sane and responsible adult to be an active driver, except very affluent individuals or parents. On the other hand, same society is sending a clear message that, if parents don't make sure their daughters are able to drive a car and own/borrow it from her parents, she'll be more likely to "take a ride" with some local fuccboi. If you ever paid attention, you'd notice that, even though less girls are either working full time at age of 18, even though there are way less professional female drivers at any age than male drivers... you will notice that young women tend to get their drivers license significantly sooner than young men, they also tend to "own" more cars or have a car at their disposal at all (and this almost certainly translates through parents either buying or giving them their own car, not that 16-24 y/o age group is buying cars out of their own pocket).

By getting such message from society, parents will not even notice (or find it strange, only logical) that they'll be more apt to make sure their daughters have a permission to drive and a car at their disposal and they'll do an extra mile to ensure that, just like they do with the education.

Getting a legal permission to drive and owning a car doesn't have to mean anything, but it gives a strong foundation for one's success. By ensuring that their daughters either have their own car or they have it at their disposal, combined with daughters getting a legal permission to drive up to 1-2 years before boys on average, it boosts their social and business mobility, which in turn translates into better life and job opportunities and outcomes.

And that's exactly what a better educational achievement means and results with. While it doesn't have to mean anything, it gives a strong foundation for one's future success. Go and ask the parents whether they fret if their daughter is not doing well at school. And then take care to notice just how many parents completely ignore that their son is not even prepared for school at early age. Difference doesn't even start at schools, it only grows over time and its systematic.

Well, this article was a waste of time.

Man, the fact that this had almost 1k upviotes is the reason I don’t enter in this sub as much anymore.
