Wall Street Journal: Are we teaching our kids to be fearful of men?

Article here. Excerpt:

'Child-welfare groups say these are necessary precautions, given that most predators are male. But fathers' rights activists and educators now argue that an inflated predator panic is damaging men's relationships with kids. Some men are opting not to get involved with children at all, which partly explains why many youth groups can't find male leaders, and why just 9% of elementary-school teachers are male, down from 18% in 1981.'

Hello Jeffrey -

Here is what I am teaching my kids:

don't fall for the feminist hype that portrays men as bad and women as good.
the myth of "sugar and spice and everything nice" is crumbling because it is just that, a MYTH!

what the serious research is finding is that women are every bit as horrible as men, every bit as predatory in nature.
question ALL data that a feminist provides to you for an article.
Remember how girls were allegedly getting short changed in the 80s and 90s and how, based upon "a report" from a biased feminist group, which was later shown to be completely wrong and false, we re-architected the public schools systems to advantage the girls?....and now our college enrollment shows exactly that. Women are advantaged.

What is going to happen is men are going to back off from relationships (marriage and family) entirely in the USA....it is already beginning to happen. And your article plays right in to that scenario. I feel sorry for the kids growning up today. Particularly the boys. They are getting screwed.

Likewise, maybe they shouldn't hire female teachers to teach young boys..to "reduce the risk" that the boys will be seduced and raped!
