I'm a boy and my school isn't failing me whatsoever.. in fact we're given far more attention than girls in nearly every circumstance.. if a girl wears a short skirt she's told "go home! that's distracting the boys" (thus placing a boys education at a higher importance than boy's)

Your constant desire to suggest men are oppressed is ridiculous and entirely untrue.

on a scale of one to john mccririck how uncomfortable does this picture make you feel:



(also do you know how many sexualised pictures I came across while searching 'policeman'?? same thing doesn't come up with 'policeman'.. another example of women being seen as sexual objects rather than human beings who have careers)

Its feminist brainwash. if women were 35% behind in anything the whole feminist country would be in outrage...35% is a massive massive difference....If women are under represented its a national outrage, if men are under represented its ignored and unimportant, the pattern is sickening and sexist. In the classroom, in universities, in the court rooms, in the nhs which spends billions more on womens health, in charitable organizations, even male cancer which is higher than in women, men are underfunded by billions, in the media where womens rights are given infinitely more air time , its in everything.

But so what if boys are light years behind, so what if boys and men kill themselves at the highest rates ever recorded and over 4 times the rate of women, boys see their fathers in only 50% of cases so what, if men are conscripted to certain death in wars, so what? if men lose their kids in 80%+ divorce courts so what? If they lose their kids in 80%+ divorce courts so what? If they die 5 years younger than women, so what? its only men, lets just laugh at their problems and get outraged if any woman anywhere is 1% behind

I didn't go to university but instead left school at 16 and did various jobs from salesman, to washing dishes and a milk man.

I did go back to college at 22, night school in fact. I did 4 A levels and passed all of them. That's all I needed.

Uni wasn't necessary.

What sexism?... There isn't any, in any profession lads need and have qualifications, it's not just white collar workers require academic competency... electricians and plumbers are just as intelligent.
I think writing lads off like this does them a disservice.

Ive listed extensively why is IT sexism, you've chosen to ignore that , which is in itself a form of sexism

You listed an awful lot of issues that need addressing individually, looking at the education system I would say the opportunities for both are equal if they put the work in. It's not sexist to say that.
