Boy-Haters

This makes me angry: "There's finally proof that boys do ruin schools for girls". It's from Slate, which I find of dubious merit generally, but on this occasion specially offensive. The most ironic thing about it is this: the inverse of that title could never be printed anywhere, without a lawsuit following -- but this article gets homepage billing at msn.com. I'm glad I'm not in middle school.

UPDATE: If you peruse this article, read the comments too. This article has aroused some interesting responses.

Good grief. I'm glad that lady doesn't have any boys. And you're right; no one could get away with saying anything CLOSE to that in reverse.

That's the irony: the author is named Tim.
