I get the point and all, but really the girl power stuff is pretty much a pysops that is fricking girls/women up and making them crazy. The more they push that crap, the worse they become. It's anything but empowering.

So in reality, the boy is very fortunate.

Men are never celebrated. They only matter if they provide something. Look at how the courts treat fathers. You can be the best father and the court will still side with a terrible mother.

And there's the nauseating "happy wife happy life" propaganda. As if the man's happiness should never be considered.

Kneel down in front of the kid and tell him:

"Just because someone out there is trying to do something to lift someone else up doesn't man you need to feel sorry for yourself or whine about it like a little bitch. Now lets get groceries."

I've never understood this crap where we can't celebrate anything without another group pissing and moaning. FFS.

And on top of that, they have girl power shirts because they sell girl power shirts. If there was a group that would buy "boy power" shirts they would sell them. They are there to make money.


In theory, I agree.

But the issue is when these simple platitudes are put into policy like we see in education.

If I was the dad in that case, I’d search for a store employee and ask where the Boy Power section is just to mess with them. The little things can be entertaining.

Except for my loved ones and blood, I do not pay attention to females. Am I a male chauvinist pig?

I’ve never understood why we have to be told who to “celebrate.”

You don't think children can tell when "one of these things is not like the other"? Kids are pretty perceptive- especially when schools and programming makes SURE they know there are different groups.

“Girlpower” and “Womanpower” are useless slogans that don’t mean anything. On the other hand, “manpower” is an actual necessity, without which nothing would ever get accomplished.

Just ask Mr. Rogers.

No. I don't. Why in the world would you assume "this boy child is a fictional character"?

The same reason that I knew the silly post about mass Muslim prayers at Times Square in NYC yesterday was nonsense.

I am not a gullible fool, willing to buy any story that fits the narrative.

We sure did get a bump in the number of new progressive radicals posting here recently.

Weird.

If this book doesn't put blame making things "equitable" when it comes to uplifting girls over boys at a young age, and how its not natural, then it's not worth reading.

Tucker has an interview this week with Chris Williamson discussing it. Interesting interview

That is when you say, "Yeah, for the same reason they don't signs of us saying "Handsome'................because you know little boys are powerful, you don't need a sign.

The amount of girl stem clubs is astounding.. good luck finding a boys stem club.


No joke, will always remember MESA club from college. They went on & on about scholarships for women & minorities. A white guy actually had the balls to ask "what about scholarships for guys" and was told that "we're not really offering that for you"
