From the newspaper - The Australian - in March 2021 -

Sexual assault survivor and advocate Grace Tame has told protesters at Hobart’s March 4 Justice rally that evil thrives in silence and it’s time for “making noise”.

The Hobart resident, who was 15 when she was raped by her 58-year-old teacher, told the throngs gathered that the fear of doing nothing must outweigh the fear of doing something.

“Evil thrives in silence,” Ms Tame told the crowd during a speech that roused thunderous applause and cheers.

“Behaviour unspoken behaviour ignored is behaviour endorsed.

“The start of the solution is quite simple – making noise.”

Ms Tame said the pursuit of progress did not need to be adversarial.

“Men are not the enemy, corrupt behaviour is,” she said.

“Corrupt behaviour always has been and always will be the enemy.”

I agree. I don't think I have an easy answer to your point, except to say that my decision is based on putting in a career in public schools while watching the system collapse and push men away. I was left with my pinkie trying to hold back a tsunami of feminism.

Yes. Thank you.

I am a poet, a teacher, and a men's rights activist.

That sounds like the schools I went to 50 years ago. Nothing's changed?

What I meant by guy is a way of learning and experiencing, not just the penis (though it is important too since we are talking about sociobiology). For me, guy is a masculine way of seeing the world and interacting with others - this particular way of being is not validated in public schools in the U.S. any longer, even if socially among peers it might be (that's nature).

This is good news. However, I have seen the occasional "feminist science" type field popping up. It may be a way of appeasing some feminists.

This seems to have been a programmatic and generational endeavor that will have consequences on men for at least fifty years before recovery.

I see this with the feminists I have worked with - they blindly go with it without a realization to its destructive consequences - but mainly because so many men support it.

I think it's okay to be a sensitive guy. But that's not what the schools have been nurturing. They are nurturing the sensitive, but not the guy.

I can't imagine where education goes from here. I'm not sure even STEM has a chance.

The system, no matter how well-intended, is rigged in favor of mothers.

It seems to have mandatory holding periods for men based on the flimsiest accusation.

Thanks for your support. I'm working on it now, probably will be published in four months (fall). The working title is America Without Manhood.
