that book is spot on with regards to the problems...too bad it blames "feminism", and in so doing, loses impact with it's rhetoric.
Schools ARE biased against boys these days. The rules at my son's elementary school are nuts. They insist that young buys sit still for extended periods of time and "play nice." At one school in Santa Monica, they outlawed the game of tag because it was competitive and made people feel bad. How about we teach people that it is OK to lose sometimes?
Don't get me started on my school rants. I know our principal and asst. principal by first name, and we have fought back and forth on a regular basis. There is a systematic problem and boys are now considered "abnormal" if they are active and want to play rough. But I don't blame "feminism". I blame laziness and a desire for conformity and things to be easy.
