MY USA TODAY COLUMN: Men to America — Thanks for nothing: While Clinton and Obama were playing the woman card, men and boys were falling behind.
If we had a college gap that favored men as much as the existing one favors women, it would be treated as a national crisis. If our girls (instead of our boys) attended schools where teachers were overwhelmingly of the opposite sex, there’d be loud demands for government action. And if there were articles with titles such as The End of Women running in major national magazines, their tone would be alarmist, not smug.
Maybe it’s time for a Presidential Task Force on Men and Boys. Before things get worse.
It would be inexpensive, and help Trump with his base. And it would address a real problem.
