The feminized male

Description

This book is pure garbage. It's a hateful attack on nonathletic boys and draws upon stale stereotypes with an unhealthy dose of anti-intellectualism. Guess she never heard of homosexual athletes. (She's clearly anti-intellectual, but chose to become a professor. Go figure.) As an example of this woman's ridiculous ideas, she claims that the assassins of President John F. Kennedy and Senator Bobby Kennedy were "feminized" males who were driven out of jealous rage over the "virile" Kennedy brothers. She says all problems in physics textbooks should be rewritten in terms of sports phenomena. Sexton seeks to demonize nonathletic boys by claiming they're a potential threat to society. All she has to offer is her bigotry. In recent years this woman has said, "Beware of scientists; they're pencil-necked geeks." Amazing ... If she feels that way about scientists, she should deny herself all of the modern comforts and conveniences that scientists have provided and go live in, say, an African village out in the middle of nowhere. She deserves nothing but contempt for peddling hatred of kids.
