A generation of men have given up on higher ed

WELCOME TO THE NEW AMERICA

Men are abandoning higher education in such numbers that they now trail female college students by record levels… In the next few years, two women will earn a college degree for every man, if the trend continues…”

Men are the second-class citizens now, the undesirables. From manspreading to toxic masculinity, everything male is verboten. Is it any wonder that men would rather do something else than be lectured to and demonized every damn day?

I wrote about this on my other blog yesterday. I understand. I am one of them. I have given up on that dream, too.

Once I thought about getting a PhD and teaching history. I never got close to achieving it. That seems like a few lifetimes ago.
