Not an American, but I do agree and am seeing a perhaps a 'knee jerk' reaction in society where we've neglected girls for so long that now the pendulum has swung the other way very quickly. Think of all the initiatives to get girls into STEM, to give them positive role models, to enrich their lives, to give them more heros and icons in media (consider every hero in recent CGI and cartoon films). We, humans, do this a lot. We see something wrong, and we overcorrect. So, what happens then is that boys start to get left behind again. I think we're going to need to correct the correction in some way down the road to ensure we really have balance and equality. I have a daughter and son, I'd love for them to grow up in a world where they have equal opportunity to live lives that are meaningful to them.
