What is The War Against Boys : How Misguided Feminism Is Harming Our Young Men about?

Christina Hoff Sommers Analyzes The Work Of The Leading Academic Experts, Carol Gilligan And William Pollack, And Finds It Lacking In Scientific Rigor. There Is No Girl Crisis, Says Sommers. Girls Are Outperforming Boys Academically, And Girls' Self-esteem Is No Different From Boys'. Boys Lag Behind Girls In Reading And Writing Ability, And They Are Less Likely To Go To College. The Girl Crisis Has Been Seized Upon By Some Feminists And Has Been Suffused With Sexual Politics. Under The Guise Of Helping Girls, Many Schools Have Adopted Policies That Penalize Boys, Often For Simply Being Masculine. Sommers Says That Boys Do Need Help, But Not The Sort They've Been Getting. They Need Help Catching Up With Girls Academically. They Need Love, Discipline, Respect, And Moral Guidance. They Desperately Need Understanding. They Do Not Need To Be Rescued From Masculinity.--jacket.
