Fortunately, the media have not ignored the decline in Boys' Education
in Western countries. However, they have tended to use headlines such
as: "The Trouble with Boys".
To use the headline "The Trouble With Boys" is to blame the
victim. This is offensive, because it is Feminist teachers and lecturers,
as well as the Feminist media, which are the cause of boys' problem,
in the first place.
Educational institutions frequently have courses in Women's Studies
but seldom in Men's Studies -- and they also have many Feminist lecturers
who bring Feminist propaganda into their mainstream classes. Even when
Men's Studies courses do exist, they are only permitted to exist if
they act as subservient offshoots of their Big Sisters in the Women's
Studies departments. This amounts to a systematic, one-sided attack
on men and boys by educational institutions, which thereby expose themselves
as biased against their male students. How can male students possibly
do well in such institutions ?
An ideology is a thought-system that predisposes a person, group or
society to ask certain questions, and to ignore -- or even to resist
asking -- certain other questions. When Feminists decided that girls'
education was lagging behind in certain respects, they certainly did
not blame the girls for the problem -- they blamed the "Patriarchy".
The female-dominated education system has been -- ideologically, if
not actively -- biased in favour of girls from that time onwards.
So I don't think there is a "trouble with boys". Boys can
do anything that their female-dominated education system lets them do.
I blame the Matriarchy for their problems,
and the sooner the Western male plucks up the intestinal fortitude to
stand up to his partner and criticise Feminist ideology, the sooner
boys will be shot of their "problem".
Educational institutions need Men's Studies courses to ask the questions
that Women's Studies courses refuse to ask. You know how much status
is given to certain views by turning them into an educational course.
People who teach and study such courses are called "experts"
and influence public policy in important areas, with severe consequences
for people (men and boys, in this case) who are victimised by State
authorities on the basis of the doctrines taught by these "experts".
Therefore it is not an "academic" matter what courses schools,
polytechnics and universities choose to run. Such choices are highly
political, and sometimes oppressive.
