women are light years ahead of men at every age in schools and now theyre massively dominating university
there are less than 5% male teachers in junior schools and the fact nearly 50% kids don't live with their fathers, means the kids have no male influence at home or in the classroom..this is massively disadvantaging boys
suicides are over 4 times higher in young men that women too
it is time we embrae equality and fight to ensure men and boys catch up with girls and women....feminisim will never do this as feminism is for womens rights only...feminism must end now and equality must replace it

To be honest, I feel like a big part of this is actually because boys are far (FAR) more likely to enter into a trade after school than girls are (basically still unheard of) and so girls actually have fewer options? I knew a lot of guys at school who had the grades and ability to go to University but chose to go down the trade apprenticeship route instead. For most of them it was a good choice.
However, I don't know many girls who had the grades for Uni who didn't ultimately go to Uni, because (they feel like) there are fewer alternatives...
I get that there are big differences in male and female learning styles and the education system can be a lottle bit skewed, however, as always, I have less problem with this than I do with the education system constantly pandering to the lowest common denominator (although they claim that they don't... they do... and have been for decades). SO many clever kids failing to reach their academic potential because schools won't effectively divide them by ability because it "might make Little Thick Suzie feel bad". Absolutely nuts.
