The Wussification of Boys

[canna woop!]

You can step into moving traffic get vaccinated and side swiped by a car while your on your bike without a helmet. There's no "heavy handed" lesson of the world there. I may be younger. At least I can admit when I've been an asshole.

 

[supermanlives]

been shit, I still am an asshole.

 

[paladin420]

I feel that what you are saying is paradoxal...

Why? Do you equate civilization with feminism? Or a drug induced coma?
My mother was a redhead. She "tamed" me, taught me to be civil. Taught me morals. My father taught me to be a man.

IMHO the state has removed the father from the family and replaced him with a 'babies daddy' and welfare,CPS,DHS, nanny state. It's Gettin ugly here in Michigan. It's not just skinny jeans..

 

[symbiote420]

What kills me is seeing these single moms out here raising boys ...they can do a good job but they can never teach him to be a man! I see them telling there girls to go out there and get it while they'll take off work to stand in line while it's cold and raining to get him a pair of sneakers so he's not whining ...wth? Half won't even work or hustle for $$, seems they'd rather rob or steal! I get looked at funny for how I raise my shorties but now my peeps see the method in my madness ...I'm raising shepherds over here, not wolves or sheep!! When I was a single dad the gov never helped me the way they're helping these females.


It shouldn't be hard to see that the family bond has been wiped out and replaced with this selfish me, me, me attitude! I know I'm starting to rant now but why do you think the gov forces you to send your kids to school as earlier as 4/5 yrs old? Look at the Chinese, Korean, and pre WWII Russia for the answer .....those kids will dime out there own parents ...and they say the kids aren't learning anything in school lol

 

[dddaver]

Yeah, fuck helmets. I used to play hockey with no helmet or pads....and besides I used to play hockey with no helmet or pads...and besides, I used to play hockey with no helmets or pads...and besides...wait, did you smell that? Is something burning?

 

[surfguitar]

Yea fuck helmets!!!!! stupid pussies

My mother was a redhead. She "tamed" me, taught me to be civil. Taught me morals.

could you please explain what your mother being a redhead has to do with anything ?

btw, did you hear redheads are gonna be wiped out eventually from the gene pool ?

 

[paladin420]

Well redheads are a touch "sudden". Loving caring compassionate and willing to explain that to you while busting your butt. I was 15,16, and wondered why I hopped when dad said frog? My conclusion? If the woman who breast fed me could spank my ass like that I never wanted to see what Dad had to offer.

Not suprised the gene pool wants us gone

Gonna take a minute we b breeders

 

[Pinball Wizard]

my dad had an instant cure for ADHD

he bought it at Sears, in the men's department

normally, he just used it to hold his pants up

 

[Cannavore]

These video games haven't been out long enough to understand the damage its doing...and just because its not reported on MSM news doesn't mean its not going on...

Are any of you from the Inner City? If so .. you'd understand this better... talking about being connected to the youth lol Who do you think moves all of our weight

Youth crime has dropped near half since the 1990's, I'd say the trade off is worth it. Poorer areas aren't always going to be able to afford a $30/mo internet connection, a $400 console, $60 per game, and $50/12mo Xbox subscription to play online. So I don't really see the point in bringing that statistic up. Some areas/people are born into poverty and crime. Its a vicious cycle. Kind of like religion

And to say the west is cooking the studies on gaming is a little ridiculous as well man. People play video games around the world. There is nothing insidious about them. Its interactive entertainment at its finest and it isn't going anywhere.

As someone who has owned a video game system since Sega Genesis I've always found these claims to be hysterical. All children and young adults can distinguish gaming from reality.

You think a dodgeball videogame would ever sell as much as a first person or third person shooter? What would be the point? Kids could go outside and play dodgeball for real.

 

[mrcreosote]

Amen, Brother. Testify.
I found that after a judicious application of the aforementioned treatment, my attention span to what my father said would increase exponentially and also resulted in a burst of long term memory acquisition.

 

[gonzo`]

the world would be a much better place if every child born was actually wanted...

 

[Hydrosun]

the world would be a much better place if every child born was actually wanted...

That is why crime among teens has halved since 1990. Free abortions are a great investment for any government.

 

[Flying Goat]

IM WEIRD!!! but I don't dress like that

only cause my ass is so big i ripped all my skinny jeans

as far as the colors i don't need to wear em to see em

Weird - Cool post, dude... I can tell ya ain't no fag. (Not hating on any of my gay friends out there, ya know yer loved.)

 

[Flying Goat]

I once got my ass kicked in a circle of about 20 kids by an older kid. My mother made me take karate lessons. 8 years later I was a semi-professional fighter. Without that lesson, I would have probably become a communist instead of a fighter.

You are SO right, girl. Same happened to me, picked on at age 8. 2 boys followed me home from school, teasing me. Finally, Lorenzo Garcia got close enough (main irritant) and I banged him on the top of the head with my Campus Queen lunchbox... He didn't know it was loaded with books... Dropped him like a rock. Never bothered me again.

I started judo classes that year, then got into Tae Quon Do and Aikido. Younger days.

Now I just do "Old Lady with Walking Stick."

No pain = no gain. As Chopper Reed said, "Harden the fuck up!"

Nice to see a mom on here, btw. I was wondering when any ladies would chime in. Probably too busy supervising dangerous play dates, eh?

No regrets about UY. None. I'm practically broke, but getting by. MOST DEF not a rich bitch. ;p

Kindest regards.

This quote (paraphrased from a internet chat room) emphasizes the common misperception that many video game players and parents of these players have towards the effects that violent video games have on aggressive behavior: “I see violent media daily and I do not want to kill anybody. Therefore, violent video games don't affect me.” The question of whether violent video game play is related to negative behavioral consequences (i.e., aggression) is not new, nor are the attempts by the scientific community to communicate these findings to public policy makers. ​

However, rarely does effective public policy concerning media violence get implemented. To support this claim, consider the following questions:​

1. Does the scientific literature continually show strong relationships between
violent media and aggressive thoughts, aggressive feelings, and aggressive
behaviors? – Yes (see Anderson, 2004; Kirsh, 2006).​

2. Have the leading media violence experts testified before their governing body
stating that violent media increases the probability of aggression in consumers? -
Yes (see Anderson, Berkowitz, Donnerstein, Huesmann, Johnson, Linz,
Malamuth, & Wartella, 2003).​

3. Are children still consuming violent mass media regularly? – Yes (see
Anderson, Gentile, & Buckley, 2007).​

4. Are there effective policies in the United States that minimize the
consumption of violent media by children of certain ages (e.g., under 15 years
old)? –No (see Anderson & Gentile, 2008).​

Thus, scientific research has found evidence to suggest that violent media consumption, including violent video games, increases the probability of thinking, feeling, and
behaving aggressively in children and adults. These findings have been explicitly communicated to public policy makers. However, children still get a steady diet of violent media. Why is there such a huge disconnection between the scientific evidence of harm and public policy?​

BTW Altered Beast was pretty fun on Genesis... but had nothing on Wonder Boy 1,2,3 on Sega Master System...​

Your view on kids from the hood not having enough money to get internet access and game consoles is way off man... I can tell your from the suburbs...​

You comparing video games from the era of Tecmo Bowl to todays games are weird.... You never played Duck Hunt or Gyromite? ​

Compared to Call of Duty and other first person shooter games... ​

I remember getting free Night Vision Goggles with my purchase of an older version of Call of Duty... ​

In the old school era I got a Robot on named Rob that looked like Johnny 5 from short Circuit ... if you cant see my point...then you cant relate ​

A lot of people don't click on outside links. With good justification. First, they are easy to bogus, you never know where you are actually going. Secondly, if you connect to here with with https to encrypt or for that added security, you lose that going to another site. If you post a link to an article, could you please copy and paste that article?

That said, like Bill Murray in "Stripes" said "A-A-Army training ma'am. Or in my case A-A-Air Force training ma'am.

Valentines? Valentines?

Notes on the Pussification of America

By Fred Reed
October 29, 2013


It is time to get women out of the schooling of boys. It is way past time. Women in our feminized classrooms are consigning generations of our sons to years of misery and diminished futures. The evidence is everywhere. Few dare notice it.
The feminization is real. More than seventy-five percent of teachers are women; in New York state, over ninety percent of elementary school teachers are women; in the US, over seventy percent of psychologists are women, with (sez me) the rest being doubtful. This is feminization with fangs.


I have just read Back to Normal: Why Ordinary Childhood Behavior Is Mistaken for ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorder, by a psychologist, Enrico Gnaulati, who works with children alleged to have psychological problems in school, usually meaning boys. I decline to recommend it because of its psychobabble, its tendency to discover the obvious at great length, and its Genderallly Correct pronouns, which will grate on the literate. (I mean constructions resembling “If a student comes in, tell him or her that he or she should put his or her books in his or her locker”) However, a serious interest in the subject justifies slogging through the prose. (The statistics above are from the book.)


The relevent content is that women are making school hell for boys, that they have turned normal boyish behavior, such as enjoyment of rough-housing, into psychiatric “personality disorders.” They are doping boys up, forcing them into behavior utterly alien to them, and sending them to psychiatrists if they don´t conform to standards of behavior suited to girls. The result is that boy children hate school and do poorly (despite, as Gnaulati, says, having higher IQs). This is no secret for anyone paying attention, but Gnaulati makes it explicit.


As a galling example he cites one Robert, an adolescent responding badly to classes and therefore suspected by his teacher of having a “personality disorder.” From the book:
“She required all forty students in the class to design Valentine’s Day cards for each other. She was emphatic about wanting them personalized. Names had to be spelled correctly and compliments written up genuinely.”


Valentines? This was eight-grade English. Students, who by then once knew grammar cold, should be reading literature or learning to write coherently. In my eighth-grade class, we read Julius Caesar: “I want the men around me to be fat, healthy-looking men who sleep at night.” Valentines? Compliments?


This, the author assures the reader, did not take place in an asylum for the mildly retarded, but in one of the ten best high-schools in California. What must the rest be like?
Of course Robert was having trouble putting up with the girly drivel, this feminized ooze, devoid of academic content. ”Oooooh! Let´s have a warm, emotional bonding experience.”


This is why women should not be allowed within fifty feet of a school where boys are taught. A boy, especially a bright one, will want to drop out of school through the nearest window, run screaming to a recruiting office for the French Foreign Legion, anything to get away from inane, vapid, and insubstantial feel-good compulsory niceness inflicted by some low-wattage ed-school grad.


Get these ditz-rabbits away from our sons. Let us have separate schools for the sexes, with each being taught by teachers of the same sex. I do not presume to tell women what they should teach girls—astrophysics, valentine design with sincere compliments, whatever they like. Just stay away from the boys.


The thrust of current social propaganda is that the sexes are identical in all important respects. They are not. The differences are great. It is time we stopped pretending otherwise.


First: By their nature, females are far more interested in social relationships than in academic substance. If you are a man, ask yourself how often you have serious intellectual discussions of politics, science, history, or society with women as compared to men. Seldom. Degrees and exceptions, yes. Still, seldom.


Second: Women are totalitarian. Men are happy to let boys be boys and girls be girls. Women want all children to be girls. In school this means emphasizing diligence—neat homework done on time, no matter how silly or academically vacuous—over performance, meaning material learned. Women favor docility, orderliness, cooperation in groups, not making waves, niceness and comity. For boys this is asphyxiating.


If women wanted to start a bar for women only, men would not care. If men want a private club in which to enjoy male company, women go explode in fury. Totalitarian.


In common with the keepers of the Russian gulag, women are more than willing to drug little boys into submission. There is a Stalinist mercilessness in this, a complete lack of understanding of, or interest in, what boys are. (“Ve haff vays of making you….”)


Third: Women prefer security to freedom, males freedom to security. In politics, this has ominous implications for civil liberties. In the schools this means that wrestling and dodge ball are violence, that tag might lead to a fall and scraped knees, that a little boy who draws a soldier with a rifle is a dangerous psychopath in the making. This is hysteria.


(Stray thought: If I wanted to create a murderous psycho, I would Ritalinate him into a little speed freak, repress his every instinct, and humiliate him by having the police drag him away. It would work like a charm. In his trial, his defense would be justifiable sociopathy.)


Fourth: “Therapy.” This disguised witchcraft is very much a subset of the female fascination with emotional relations. It allows them to talk endlessly about their feelings. Men would rather be crucified. Thus everything becomes a “disorder.” Among these absurdities are things ilke Intermittent Explosive Disorder (appropriately, IED), and Temper Irregulation Disorder. These disorders have only been discovered since women took over the schools.


The list could go on. Boys, like men, are competitive, physically and intellectually, delighted to play hours of intensely competitive pick-up basketball. Women in the schools prefer a cooperative group game led by a caring adult. What a horror.


Even the ways in which men get along with each other differ sharply from the female approach. (Thus the desire for venues for men only.) For example, when I once broke a leg in a sky-diving accident, the women in the news room were sympathetic and concerned. At a Special Forces party I attended, there was laughter and sarcasm. “Goddam dumbass Marine can´t even do a PLF right. (Parachute landing fall). Hey, let´s break his other leg.” Translated from the male, this meant (a) that they accepted me as one of them, and (b) that to them a broken leg was not a tragedy but an inconvenience. Which it is.


Fifth: In the United States, women simply dislike men. Saying this causes eruptions of denials. If you believe these, I'd like you to meet my friend Daisy Lou the Tooth Fairy. Check the ranting of feminists, the endless portrayal on television of men as fools and swine, the punitive political correctness and the silly anti-rape fantasies on campus.


In the schools this hostility takes the form of the passive aggression behind the predatory niceness. “We´re boring him to death, keeping him miseable, and sending him for psychiatric reprogramming because we care so much about him.” Uh, yeah.
Outside of the US, fewer women buy this. My stepdaughter Natalia, Mexican, is working on a degree in clinical psychology, and sees students—read “boys”—sent to her by teachers to determine whether they have ADHD. “They don´t have ADHS,” she says. “They´re bored.”


Finally: Women display a pedestrian practicality alien to males. If a woman needs to use a computer, she will learn to do it, and do it well. She won´t learn assembly-language programming for the pure joy of it. She can drive a car perfectly well, but has no notion of what a cam lobe is or the difference between disk and drum brakes. This is why men invent things, and women seldom do.


Boys schools, male teachers.

Skinny jeans!!! Where would I keep my boot knife.. Not mention my unmentionables. No wonder 'manscaping' is gaining popularity. No room ;(


And I liked bullies.
They bleed and cry so nicely and no one really cared.
I was a vicious little fuck.

Shit, Paladin - I love you, dude. Even tho we're having a big storm & the net is slow, I was still laughing when I wrote this.

"Manscaping," indeed! Gag me with a spoon! Returned to US in 2007, nobody I could date... Had to find me a natural Southern Swamp Beast (actually, he's my soulmate. We're both Cancers, born 2 weeks apart, same year & the cusps balance each other out.)

Great comment about the boot knife, too - I always have one on me... Not a bolo, but oh, well...

 

[Flying Goat]

Ah,, FbN Ya Know those Skinny Jeans are perrrrfect 4 Nanner Gazing.lol.

Peace; 1TT

Twisted - I am STILL chuckling...

Ditto those spandex bicycle shorts, eh? Wear black, guys, if you don't want peeps check out yer pod.



That is IF you'd wear spandex at ALL... Mighty suspicious fashion taste, methinx. But what do I know?

 

[Flying Goat]

Xenoestrogens (such as bisphenol-a) and estrogen mimickers are literally in every thing you touch, use, wear, eat, and drink. From the clothes you wear, to the ink on reciepts you get from the market, to the bottles of water you drink and the canned goods you eat.

These chemicals feminize men. Perhaps that's why homosexuality and docileness in males is increasing while our sperm counts are decreasing. (Increased breast cancer in women, too.)

Man, this thread took off yesterday when I was at the beach!

You are so right, Cannivore... It started with the first microwave ovens when we began cooking in plastic & reheating leftovers, remember? (We finally got one when I was in high school 1970s.)

Basically, with every generation since, the genetic damage has increased.

I cook over propane and/or in the fireplace. Will take the time to heat my food properly or eat it cold.

We all love our conveniences & toys, but they know this. It is BY DESIGN that cellphones are tracking devices that place calls, send texts, and have games, etc. And if they're too close to your head & you're a big-time yapper, you'll get brain cancer. Stats up worldwide. I won't even carry mine on my body.

Was wondering if anyone would make the connection between diet, plastics, xenoestrogens, and the rest... Yer a sharp cookie!
