After decades of overt repression of everything male, maybe some boys and young men are actually believing it enough to hold lower expectations of themselves. If you continuously tell boys that they are destined to be crude, ham-fisted neanderthals who are interested only in sex and sports, many of them will oblige you. Kids tend to live up to, or down to, the expectations of the adults around them.

Far too many feminists have spent decades promoting the simple-minded approach of beating down masculinity and berating men with such a broad brush that it was bound to have an adverse effect in the long run. Add to this the fact that many of these philosophies have worked their way into our laws and schools and, well, this is what you get.

Woman hits man, woman yells at man, woman throws objects hitting man. Man does nothing but try and run away.

Neighbor calls police.

Police arrest man.
