Whatever Happened to Boys’ Clubs and Men’s Colleges?

The last American population that was American grew up in the 1940s, graduated from high school in the mid to late 1950s and from college in the early 1960s.  After that support systems for boys and young men were dismantled. There are no male spaces anymore.

    I attended 4 superlative  universities–Georgia Tech, University of Virginia, UC Berkeley, and Oxford University.  Only UC Berkeley, a large state university, was gender integrated.

    Georgia Tech says that it was gender integrated in 1952.  In my years there I never saw a female student.  Rumors were that there were a few taking masters degrees in engineering.  The football cheerleaders were all male acrobats.

    At UVa where I received a Ph.D. in economics, I never saw a female. Rumors, as at Ga Tech, were that there were a few women enrolled in masters degrees not available at the women’s colleges.  The women attended excellent women’s colleges such as Sweet Briar. USA was gender integrated in 1970.

    At Oxford University there were ancient men’s colleges.  Mine, Merton College, dated from 1264. There were four women’s colleges. Each college had its own tradition.

    For nonsensical reasons, men’s colleges at Oxford were gender integrated between 1974 and 1986, and lost their traditions.  Women’s colleges followed during 1979 and 2008, and lost their traditions.

    What was it all about? What was achieved other than the destruction of tradition?  Women were already at Oxford.  Why did they have to be in men’s colleges?  Men were already at Oxford.  Why did they need to be in women’s colleges?

    The Boys’ Club of America was gender integrated in 1990, thus destroying the purpose of the Boys’ Club.  Why?  What was achieved?

    Little League fell to gender integration 16 years earlier in 1974.  Perhaps this was the death toll for the American male.  Teams had to accept girls whose performance was inferior to that of the boys in order to comply with imposed gender regulations.

    As boys were expected to perform well, parents cheered the girls who managed to get to first base or catch a left field fly.  The boy who got a double or threw a double play was cheered but not with the applause given to the most minor of female accomplishments. This subordination of male performance to female performance set the stage for the dispossession of the American male of his confidence.

    Today corporate boardrooms are confronted with female members demanding advertisements against men, such as the Gillettes and Budweiser Light anti-male advertisements and Starbuck’s statement that it is not employing any white males until it has more women and people of color.

    Today American heterosexual men have been moved aside. What the dumbshit feminists have achieved is unprotected women.  We have evidence in England, Sweden, Norway, Europe, and America. Recently the state of Minnesota refused to prosecute an immigrant-invader child rapist “in the interest of justice.”  In other words, it was just for the black guy to rape the white girl.

    In Sweden and Norway white women are subject to public rapes. White men do not intervene out of fear that they will be arrested for the hate crime of abusing a black person.

    Throughout the Western world racial privileges have been institutionalized in law and practice.  It is racist for whites to protect themselves.  With the confidence of white men destroyed, the field is open for immigrant-invaders. This is feminism’s achievement.

    The inflation hoax

    Yes, prices are rising, but not for the reasons the Federal Reserve says. When I say inflation is a hoax, I mean the purported cause is a hoax. The Fed is fighting a consumer inflation, a “demand-pull” inflation. But what we are experiencing is a supply-side inflation caused by the Covid lockdowns and economic sanctions that closed businesses, disrupted supply chains, and broke business relationships while reducing energy supplies to the UK and European countries, thus forcing up costs in a globalized economy.
