We all need to talk with boys more...I am starting to think that some of this seems so obvious to some of us adults that we've forgotten to make it explicit to the kids we're raising, teaching, counseling, and hoping will grow up to be a better generation of thoughtful and compassionate people.
Terrible page. Terrible. Even in a webpage on boys you Focus on women and "healthy" masculinity. Instead of recognising that we have push women so far that thats IS the proble. You Will not recognise your won problem. The problem You have created. Start recognising that this IS a Matriarchy. And you helped raising It. Star ñt recognising the discrimination created with gender quotas and affirmative actions. With desindustrialization. With all your discourse. Start blaming boys, and masculinities... and starst blamkng yourself.
That's a very thought-provoking idea! What IF the Washington Post had framed the issue that way? I'm genuinely curious: what do you (& others) hear from boys & young men re their thoughts on & interest in marriage? I am asking b/c the feeling I get is not one of enthusiasm. Personally, I think that my generation (Gen X) has done such a good job of talking about the challenges of marriage & parenthood that our kids (Gen Z) primarily see both marriage and parenthood as burdensome, rather than as challenging, enriching parts of life.
It's a really good question. The average age of first marriage in the U.S. keeps getting later, (for men it's now 30.5 year old). Maybe people aren't rushing in, but also aren't rejecting it all together?
Disgrategul. Terrible advice. Are men only meant to date women? Shall they study to please their partners?? OMG!! Terrible ideas and terrible advice!!!
The reality is that there has been a clear war on men (generally) and boys. Destroyint manufacturing jobs and creating a services centric society at the expense of men.
And, in addition to that, affirmative action and discrimination against men has become rampamt. With even gender quotas in Europe.
70% of University in Norway are females... But there IS no gender equality yet in Norway for the World Bank!! (Sic!!)
Billiona for feminist and feminized education. Campus es and grants for women. Organistions for women. None for men and boys.
Stop!! You need to recognise that women have created a clear matriarchy in terms similar to the reverse situation in 1960.
With the difference that women were protected in nuclear families that valued their contribution as women.
None of that happens to men, with rampampt divirces.
Yet, you will see a gender tons of cash into female groups and organistions.
Your advice IS wrong. We need to make boys independent from women. They are NOT a toy to get married. They are NOT a toy to meet whats women stardards are.
I wanty boy to be what he wants to be. Even not educated if he IS what he wants. And if that leads him not to find a women, ok, if a society problem. Period
This was helpful and already a source of conversation in my home!
Thanks, Charlotte! Some good conversation starters here: https://www.boyhoodinitiative.org/resources?field_taxonomy_ref_target_id=6&field_audience_ref_target_id=16
