High schools also need to get in the program (if they are ever funded) and start offering history of film and rock'n'roll classes. That is what students want these days. All about the entertainment.

I read an article about boys who play sports and video games, which teach competition and problem solving, while girls are well? not.
Saddly at my work we had a position open where if a qualified woman applied she would get the job. Out of 240 applicants 0 women applied.
I don't read, and girls don't seem to actively pariticipate in science. Do you think it's by design? or do you think you hate math and i'm just too ignorant to really care about interesting ideas and concepts?

Then you say:
Work harder boys, and quit the fucking whining.
I don't understand:
Christina hoff said that? and then you're blaming boys for whining? The only thing i don't see is the boys whining. Just some hot girl on girl action. Futhermore, telling boys to work harder--i don't get it. Take a look around, it's a mans world. Nowhere in girl world would there ever be a prominent hot dog eating contest.
I should stop saying things that piss you off, but sometimes i just like poking your buttons in good fun. cheers.

Joey Chestnut ate 52 hot dogs, 1 3/4th less than Kobayashi.
Good find tho!
