Not sure how you came to this conclusion - women are indeed competitive and men can, and do compete with women. What I'm saying is that higher levels of testosterone in men increases their competitiveness and appetite for risk. Depriving boys (and men) of an outlet for that competitiveness is folly. Expecting men to take up crocheting just because equality is folly. I support giving men and women equal opportunity. I support any individual's choice. If a boy wants to play with other boys who are we to interfere? If a boy wants to play with girls or crochet, who are we to interfere? FORCING equality, equivalence and absolute parity onto women and men will lead, I think, to societal problems. Androgynous sameness. History, and experience, has shown me that anything in the extreme is a recipe for disaster. Who knows. I may be wrong (I've been wrong before), but I have yet to hear a compelling counter argument.
