…tempting to use the cyclical nature of the male crisis (and the cynical version of its modern variant) as a reason to reject worry about men. But there are plenty of reasons to be concerned. In his new book Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, And What to Do About It, Richard V.

concern for the plight of boys and men is more fashionable than you might think in progressive spaces, especially in the past few years. for example, Barack Obama's summer reading list just came out. I think being on this list indicates being…

…to note, most testing seems to show women/men are about average in intelligence but there is slight variability between the two. So thinking one gender is smarter doesn't bear out. I've read excerpts "Of Boys and Men" that indicate academic changes to assist girls may have harmed boys. For example, in schooling, it was shown that girls do better on homework while boys would do better on testing. So, teachers realizing…
I haven't read that book, but I might now. It's refreshing to see such a realistic assessment of the problems. IMO, the most important line from that page: >The problems of boys and men are structural in nature, rather than individual; but are rarely treated as such. This is why shame does nothing productive, whether it's shaming boys for displaying "masculine" traits or displaying…
…stuff is toxic because it’s about conflict. It’s about pushing back against feminism, which is essentially fighting against equity. With that said, I see nothing wrong with fighting for the interests of boys and men. I, too, want to see boys succeed (I have a son!) But it’s not about his rights. It’s about his opportunities and the support and so on, that he gets." See the thing about this is even if you genuinely…
……很容易让人把男性危机周期性出现的特点（以及当代对其冷嘲热讽的看法）当作理由，去拒绝关心男性。但我们完全有充分的理由去担忧。布鲁金斯学会研究员兼新成立的美国男孩与男性研究所创始人理查德·V·里维斯，在他的新书《关于男孩和男人：为什么当代男性在苦苦挣扎，这为什么重要，以及我们该怎么做》中辩称……

在进步主义圈子里，对男孩和男人的处境表达关切其实比你想象的更流行，尤其是过去几年里。比如，贝拉克·奥巴马刚公布的夏季书单。我觉得能上这个书单就说明……

……值得注意的是，大多数测试似乎表明男女的智力平均水平差不多，但两者之间存在轻微的离散度差异。所以认为哪种性别更聪明是站不住脚的。我读过《关于男孩和男人》的摘录，里面提到为了帮助女孩而进行的学业考核改革可能反过来害了男孩。例如在学校里，研究表明女孩在家庭作业上表现更好，而男孩在考试中表现更好。因此，当老师们意识到……

我还没读过那本书，但现在我可能会去看了。看到有人对这些问题做出如此现实客观的评估，真是让人眼前一亮。在我看来，那页里最重要的一句话是：>男孩和男人的问题本质上是结构性的，而非个人层面的；但人们却极少这样对待它们。这就是为什么羞辱起不到任何积极作用，无论是羞辱男孩表现出“男子气概”特质，还是羞辱他们表现出……

……那些东西有毒，因为它制造对立。它是在反击女权主义，而这本质上就是在反对平权。话虽如此，我认为为男孩和男人的利益发声没有任何问题。我也希望看到男孩们取得成功（我自己就有一个儿子！），但这跟他的权利无关，而是关乎他能获得的机遇、支持等等。”瞧瞧，这件事情的诡异之处就在于，哪怕你是真心……
