"That message is not just for girls"

Agree 100%. For too long there has been a strange dichotomy in the American family: we raise our daughters to guard their virtue, but we encourage our sons to be rakes. (An encouragement that they hardly need, given the biology involved.) This is a recipe for failure, and failure is what we have.
