Misguided feminism trumps prep academy
Letter here.
'Feminists are protesting the sexual discrimination of a male-only school which was proposed because males are failing so frequently in our female-oriented school system.
Did anyone hear feminists protest the sexual discrimination when a Violence Against Women Act was passed by the federal government, even though men experience at least one and a half times as many crimes of violence as women do? Whoops, I forgot that it was National Organization for Women that led the push to create this biased legislation.
And where were the feminists' objections to the sexual discrimination resulting from the state and federal Women's Health Initiatives to foster women's health. No such Initiatives are available for men, even though on average men die over five years younger than women do, are affected by most major diseases five years earlier than women are, and commit suicide about four times as often as women do, to name a few of men's health disadvantages.
Why are feminists so quiet about these serious discriminations against men? Have feminists given up on advocating for equality between men and women, or does equality just mean maximizing women's advantages?'
