Kibbutzim

Children's Houses

Kibbutzim in Israel originally reared all children communally in Children's Houses. The children would live in the Children's House only seeing their parents for a few hours after work. The Children's Houses were staff by dedicated personal from amongst the kibbutz members. It isn't clear how kibbutzim dealt with these staff having children.

The Children's Houses were ultimately a failure and rarely survived more than one generation in most kibbutzim. Virtually all adults brought up in a Children's House demanded that their children live them rather than in the Children's House.

In addition, many of the people brought up in Children's Houses together treated each other as siblings. In a kibbutz, where many people born on the kibbutz are expected to stay and run it as adults, this presented a serious problem as they would not form romantic relationships with each other. Since it is easier to leave a kibbutz than it is to marry an outsider and bring them in, the net result was to cause people to leave the kibbutzim, threatening the future viability of the kibbutzim.

The use of Children's Houses ended during the 1970s.

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.
