Bekannter Männerforscher unterstützt Männerzentrum an Universität Toronto

Der Kampf um Gleichberechtigung an Kanadas Unis geht weiter:

A fundraising campaign to create a Canadian Centre for Men and Families kicks off Wednesday in Toronto with a lecture by a leading anthropologist of gender, in an effort to boost the political clout and intellectual credibility of men’s issues.

It is a controversial topic often associated with angry sexists. But Lionel Tiger, Charles Darwin Professor of Anthropology at Rutgers University in New Jersey — best known for coining the term "male bonding" — is neither angry nor sexist.

In an interview, the Canadian who has taught at McGill University and the University of British Columbia, said his talk at a downtown Toronto bar will aim to set aside moral or religious arguments and simply describe the current state of maleness, in which schoolboys are drugged with Ritalin to make them behave like girls; university-aged men have lost long-standing mating systems in the name of sexual liberation; universities themselves wholeheartedly embrace feminist victimology; and the worst is assumed about any adult man who ends up in family court, or is accused of domestic violence.

For four decades, since the ascendance of feminism, society has "vilified" males, Prof. Tiger said, and "it has now got to the point where we see some real results," such as large numbers of single mothers, and disproportionately female university campuses.

"It’s a change, and my view of my job as a social scientist is to identify changes and try to understand why they are created and where they are heading. In this context, it’s very remarkable that there’s been so little attention paid to males," he said.

(...) One result is that schools now educate boys so much more poorly than girls that "if the ill-educated group was black or Jewish or Swahili or right-handed [instead of male], there would be a public outcry."
