The Globe and Mail recently ran a series of features on education and males, the inquiry into this area isn't pretty. From primary education on up males trails females in terms of achievements, graduation rates, and sheer numbers. Having seen first hand how young males aren't served particularly well, it doesn't surprise where we've arrived after decades of ignoring this issue. The impact on society is tremendous as men aren't adapting to the changing terrain of the economy and society around them. Below I've attached a number of articles from the series, spending some time reading them is well worth it. See:
How boys are falling behind girls
Failing boys and the powder keg of sexual politics
