Today’s Daily Wire podcast mentions the boy crisis. Lifting Mask Mandates: Science or Politics? | 2.12.22. (After today you might have to scroll down to find it. The segment on boys is at the end, if you want to fast forward.)
While I have no doubt that various factors — affirmative efforts to get women into college; the feminization of just about everything, including school; telling boys they’re toxic, etc. — have pushed these numbers into their current, lopsided state, I have mixed feelings about trying to fix it.
Is the solution to try to get more boys to spend too much money on mostly useless college degrees? I don’t think so.
Education is a much bigger problem than simply the anti-boy bias, and it’s very likely that the correct solution is not to get more boys to go to college, but to try to get fewer people in college in the first place.
