In the U.K., Male Teachers Are Teaching Schoolboys the Art of Wooing
Article here. Excerpt:
'According to the Telegraph, schoolboys in parts of England have no positive male mentors and watch too much porn, and therefore, have no idea how to court a lady. To address the problem, school administrators have begun to implement a curriculum that sounds like a Dickensian version of Hitch meets Rodger Dodger.
"Young men have a skewed view of what a relationship is like because of the easy access to pornography. It's about improving self-esteem and helping them to grow up to be decent men," one administrator told the Telegraph.
...
But wait, who has mentored these mentors! Is a female teacher going to weigh in? This could all be a little blind-leading-the-blind here, if these schools aren't careful. Among those life skills already deemed crucial for the curriculum, we'd like to add the following: how to plan a date without a million texts back and forth, the proper time to play Sade during the seduction process, why you should wear deodorant, why calling your mom eight times a day is not a sexy quality, etc.'

Since girls now have easy access to sports team membership...
... how can they possibly know how to act feminine and otherwise be appealing to boys?
A mentoring scheme needs to be put into place, quick!
