Wussification

“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported this week that nearly one-fifth of high school-age boys have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Doctors eventually medicate two-thirds of them. The diagnoses represent a 41 percent increase over the last decade.”

‘Junk Degrees and the Gender Divide’

You know why that is, why there is a 41 percent increase diagnosis? First, somebody might be diddling the numbers.

More likely, though, it’s because high school boys are f’n bored! Schools don’t do boy stuff. Schools have become wussified, probably more so than any other part of American society.

Think about it. What is the ratio of women/men teachers in public schools? What is the ratio of women/men students in college? What percentage of boys are raised by an unmarried mother?

Do you see any influence by men in education?
