The more things change

For education specifically, here's an APA article discussing the problem with a US context, but I have seen the same patterns across other Western education as well.

Simply put, sit-and-listen education disadvantages boys, who also tend to receive more severe punishment than girls for the same behaviours. Add on to that gender stereotypes push boys to be dominant, and doing well at school is not cool for boys.

In general, there are a lot of issues we are simply blind to regarding men. Men are treated as disposable, always potential combatants in a war, never the victim and always the perpetrator of domestic violence and violent crime in general.

The fact is that there are not just men but only rich people at the top. My education was fucked up by a group of almost exclusively women.

But again, let's play gender war, those at the top haven't stolen enough.

There's a special place in hell for people like you

Username checks out. Good luck friend, you're not alone. ️

[tattorack@lemmy.world]

Yeah, most men won't. Only the soulless assholes will.

[smoothoperator@lemmy.world]

We literally can't, not while the structures we live in are built to benefit men.

Equality will only come with structural change, which at times will look like reverse sexism. But if a woman is hired with half the publications, and it is twice as hard for a woman to get published (just as a fictional example), then it's not really reverse sexism even if it looks like that on the surface.

Soul-having (what's the opposite of soulless?) people will just be forced to work in the corporate world without making more money...

[4oreman@lemy.lol]

I'm sure this will turn into a men vs women comment section ; which is exactly the problem because it's actually rich vs. poor.

[psud@aussie.zone]

It's rich men versus everyone. The rich men are doing a good job of making people think it's something different

[nifty@lemmy.world]

Nah, I think it’s impt to just know that we can all just live however we choose, no one should tell us anyone can just be one way

[surewhynotlem@lemmy.world]

I like this. But while the study is sex specific, fixing this would benefit boys and girls.

Humans weren't meant to sit in a chair and be talked at.

And here you are making no meaningful contribution to this discussion.

[trickdacy@lemmy.world]

I love completely self unaware comments like this

[cheesyfox@lemmy.sdf.org]

i count on the warmest bathtub they have down there:) Would be a shame if there's no heaven or hell.

[cypher@lemmy.world]

Bigot unwilling to respect pronouns calling others a bigot. It’s easy to see you have nothing but personal attacks to contribute.

You should probably take a break from the internet.

[trickdacy@lemmy.world]

Weird, a terf simp not making sense!?

[someacnt@sh.itjust.works]

Interesting how computer science is an outlier here when (IIRC) the first programmers were women.

At least math being outlier "makes sense".

[dark_arc@social.packetloss.gg]

I blame (in no small part) Hollywood and movies like Jurassic Park for pushing stereotypes about the field being dominated by creepy, obese, and gross "computer nerds."

[someacnt@sh.itjust.works]

Damn it, the stereotype is basically me
