85. Well for instance
post 3 and the responses to it.

The implication being that everyone who sees an issue with declining male academic performance is a rightwing, MRA type (which is always used derisively) and so on.

The possibility that this may raise legitimate concerns is never raised by them and when it was by others you go on the offensive.

Does the declining academic performance by males over recent decades bother you at all? I have to ask because you seem not in the least concerned. If women were to all of a sudden start performing poorly I would be concerned not because I am a woman but because they represent about half the population and that is a trend that needs to be addressed.

But I have not seen you make any statements to that affect (I know I know, feminists only care about women and men can deal with their own problems except they can't because anyone who raises such issues is by default a sexist and why should we listen to a bigot?).
