Cyberbullying, that schoolyard body slam, and footballers behaving badly : Comments

By Peter West, published 18/3/2011

School fights, once confined to the school yard can have an audience of millions, with severe ramifications for those involved.

I personally have not differentiated between boys and girls in my posts because it is appopriate to apply the same consequences to both. Perhaps it is a complete lack of sexism and bigotry that leads others to do the same.

Otokonoko,

From that I would suppose that you are agreeable to also sending girls to a "boot camp" (as proposed by the author) if they are found to be carrying out bullying.

From all studies undertaken, bullying amongst girls is widespread, and there will have to be very large boot camps.

I've been reading this discussion with some bemusement. I note that 'vanna' hasn't posted a single comment that is positive about girls, women, schools or teachers.

Was s/he bullied by girls at school?

Morgabzola,

Or would you like to see boys only sent to a "boot camp"?

Interesting that the author gave some evidence to the inquiry into boys education years ago.

But none of what he recommends in any article he has written that I have read, is contained in the recomendations of the inquiry.

Millions were spent on the inquiry, and milions wasted, because seldom have the full set of recommendations ever been carried out by any school I am aware of.

The education system is too feminist to carry out the full recomendations.

Hi vanna. I don't think that sending boys or girls to 'boot camp' would be effective in addressing bullying behaviour, quite simply because such places operate on bullying their inmates.

Now, why won't you address the point that I and others have made, i.e. that you go on (and on, and on) about the supposed lack of positive comments made about men and boys, when you never ever make positive comments about girls, women, teachers or schools?

Morganzola (or perhaps C.J Morgan the Giant)
“I don't think that sending boys or girls to 'boot camp' would be effective in addressing bullying behaviour, quite simply because such places operate on bullying their inmates.”

Exactly.

How a so-called Australian university could pay the author money is almost beyond belief.

Or perhaps our feminist universities simply don’t like boys, and don’t believe girls can be bullies.

You want to know about girls and teachers such as the author.

Well in another article the author compares boys to girls, none of which was complementary to boys, and I think this was well addressed by an “eet”

“The sad thing is that you’re an ‘expert’ on boys’ education, yet you can’t see past a feminist perspective; a premises that boys are some type of deficient girl. What hope do boys have?”

I personally would not regard the author as being an expert in men or boys, but I would regard the author as being a feminist paid money by a university in Australia.
