Hey, there’s a book coming about about this subject. Men on Strike.

    60 Minutes did an interesting piece on this years ago. Back then there was some noise about a “war on men” coming from the Right. 60 Minutes interviewed one guy who looked into this and said there was no “war on men,” but there was reason for concern. Unfortunately this was so long ago I can’t remember who he was. Women outnumbered men at universities for the first time ever, at the time. He said that the attitudes of families was worrisome, because there was a predominant belief that it’s still “a man’s world,” and so they would invest more in their daughters than their sons, to try to equal things out. If they had to make a decision about which to send to college, they would send their daughter rather than their son, thinking the son “will do fine” without a college degree. He thought families were wrong for thinking this way, saying this would disadvantage men not only in the labor market, but also in terms of marriage. He may have been right that the decisions families have made in the past is a significant contributor to what’s being seen now.
