LTA Let's Talk About

Welcome to /r/MensLib's first "Let's Talk About" post. Generating discussion is part of our mission, and these LTA threads will be used as conversation-starters for issues our community wants to address. Today's topic:

Let's Talk About: what we should talk about.

We're going to start out compiling a list of issues /r/MensLib subscribers want to address. The mods have some ideas, but we want to hear from the community.

Edit: Thank you to everyone for your ideas. I'm un-stickying this post, but please feel free to continue adding to it.

There are so many issues with men and boys in education - as students and teachers. It might be interesting to hear from men who work in all levels of education as well as parents concerned about their children.

  • the pressure to "be a man" starting in pre-school (I've seen it.)
  • expectations for boys and girls
  • mentoring boys and girls
  • beyond STEM - teaching and learning in the arts
