The problem is that things are not supported by politicians in a vacuum. It's not a la carte in a 2 party system. If we put unrelated and unacceptable policies alongside universal healthcare you can't be surprised if it doesn't attract some demographics.
I'm still waiting for the politician who's gonna have the figurative balls to say "let's fix school/college because they are failing boys". When the issue was women not getting enough degrees there was no problem calling this a national cause, now crickets.
- hotpotamus 3y agoWhat does it mean to “fix” school/college?
- dudul 3y agoMake it so that as many boys as girls are successful.
- hotpotamus 3y agoWhat if girls’ biological differences predispose them towards success in educational institutions? Then we need some sort of specialized education in order to provide the boys more intensive socialization?
- dudul 3y agoThen the institutions need to change their approach yes.
- hotpotamus 3y agoInterestingly, in other contexts I've heard people say that equality of outcome is an unwelcome suppression of meritocracy.
