Author Kay Hymowitz discusses the "emasculation" of American males and the feminization of the education system. She argues that progressive education, which discourages competition and removes "adventure" books from curricula, puts boys at a disadvantage. Hymowitz notes that modern history textbooks often present the settling of the United States as an almost entirely female-led endeavor.
Kay Hymowitz, Manning Up, The Decline of the Authoritative Male
Author Kay Hymowitz discusses her book "Manning Up," which argues that the rise of women has turned men into "child-men." She cites sitcoms like "The Big Bang Theory" and "The Simpsons" as examples of media portraying men as incompetent or effeminate. The term "mansplaining" is identified as an attack on male authority.
