"Boys and Girls Together..."

'Into the educational vacuum of moral relativism radical feminists have now poured a witches’ brew of politics and tyrannical control over both thought and action. In her later book, The War on Boys, Mrs. Sommers notes that those feminists everyone assumed simply hated men have now turned on a more vulnerable target: boys. She exposes what the terrifying techniques and purposes of feminist reeducation are doing to boys. The catechism, she says, is more or less simple: “Girls, good; boys, bad.”

In many schools, even the propensity of boys to run and jump and engage in rough-and-tumble play is now being suppressed. This radical educational change has actually evolved into a movement to abolish recess at the very time when health activists are railing about overweight and inactive American children. If sedentary and junk-food-nourished children must be denied free outdoor exercise, says Mrs. Sommers, there must be some powerful reason for doing so.

The reason is that boys behave differently from girls. This cannot be allowed. Feminists insist that boys should be raised like girls – indeed, should be like girls. More active male behavior or interests – once considered normal for boys – are considered the spawn of “patriarchy” and must be treated as deviant expressions that will lead directly to rape, mass murder, and capitalism. They must be stamped out with every means possible.

Day in and day out, too many boys are hearing a steady drumbeat telling them that they are class enemies, responsible for all the evils of the world. Mrs. Sommers notes that when these doped-up, denigrated, and sexually confused boys hit adolescence, “…hormonal rockets are lit off, and we find resentful, angry, and unsocialized youth bouncing around the landscape.” This, then, is taken as additional evidence that more vigorous non-sexist reeducation must be instituted. Fewer young men going to college is only one symptom of a poisonous institutional bias that must be disclosed and dealt with.'
