Men and boys are experiencing various problems in education today:

  • Boys not performing well in school
  • Boys being marked down by female teachers
  • Men abandoning tertiary education

Girls may well intrinsically do better up to about age 14.

Differences in grades tend to disappear after female teacher biases are removed.

Grad inflation tends to favour girls due to male variability.

Success in school is a poor indicator of success in life.

Primary School

Female teachers have a tendency to mark-down boys. This results in boys appearing to be performing worse than they actually are.

This is only true if education is counted merely as years of formal schooling. This narrow definition has several serious problems:

  1. Not every year of formal schooling is equally valuable. A year in engineering is worth more to the individual and society than a year in gender studies.
  2. It seems to ignore non-tertiary training such as apprenticeships. Trades are essential to the functioning of a modern society.
  3. Not all education is acquired formally.

School

University/College

While it is true that women now constitute a significant majority of University students, all degrees are not equal. Men continue to dominate in degrees in STEM disciplines, which are the principal drivers of innovation in the modern economies.

  • University
    • Due process
    • Falling enrollments

Literacy & Numeracy

Father's Involvement

General Information

The main purpose of Wiki4Men is to provide a repository for information, studies, and research on men and boys and the broad range of issues affecting them, without feminist, misandric, gynocentric or woke bias. Wiki4Men also discusses issues of interest to MRAs, documents the evolution of the men's rights movement itself & misandry for posterity, and discusses issues of identity politics beyond the sphere of gender. The primary audience for Wiki4Men is MRAs, supporters of men's rights and the genuinely curious.

Starting in November 2023 topics that are more likely to be of interest to men are being added to the wiki.

Wiki4Men is brought to you by A Voice for Men. More information on the wiki itself is available here. The Managing Editor is Robert Brockway.

In order to use the site, search for a term that interests you, choose from our Featured Articles or try a random article.

This site encourages publication of factual information about men and women and the cultural contexts in which they meet. It aims to be the keeper of rational and evidence-based conclusions, while rejecting popular forms of gender bigotry.

Due to licence compatibility articles may be imported from Wikipedia with appropriate attribution. These articles can then be corrected for woke bias and other problems. Generally only selected sections of articles are imported from Wikipedia as many Wikipedia articles are now so long that they obscure important information.

Wiki4Men rejects gynocentric and misandric narratives.
