The difference is that race relations in the 40s and 50s had an institutionalized, wide-spread belief of non-whites as subordinate and inferior. The vast majority of whites believed this. The views of women by the vast majority of men today are nothing close to that sort of thinking, and this minority shrinks further when you get to younger people these days. I mean hell, if there is one single man in this country who views women as subhuman, is that enough for you to stretch that one man's belief to the goddamn institutionalized racism of the 40s and 50s?! Not to mention your comparison is looking at the 40s and 50s, where racial segregation was the norm. Coed classrooms are the norm now and studies are showing segregation has benefits improving upon the norm for a large numbers of students/types of students. If you really think that these situations are similar and therefore the solutions are similar (integration will help students more than segregation), then why the hell are we seeing these results when comparing COED classes - the current norm, mind you - to SINGLE-SEX classes? I mean drat there is race-baiting and then there's this.

Because you're cherry picking your results to make it seem like there's an overwhelming improvement to segregating by sex when ultimately there is negligible or no gain. http://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/bul-a0035740.pdf edit: countdown until the most minimal of studied groups that shows an improvement is used as an argument for benefits... esto es malo fucked around with this message at 22:59 on Dec 23, 2014 |

whitey delenda est posted:I am now also curious about this given that I'm back on the north shore for the holiday. Who the gently caress talks about the breakfast club in the USPol thread? What, is Michelle back in town with a new nutrition initiative? Sometimes, students refuse to eat anything but McD's. What do you do, send them home hungry? (Yes.) If the teachers and administrators wouldn't eat it, why the gently caress are we feeding it to our kids? Make that poo poo part of a vertically-integrated production chain and slap on some "mandatory life skills" cover. Students should learn to cook, to garden, to jar, and to produce high-quality meals from a young age. If they don't wanna, they can always go and clean some loving bathrooms.

But don't confuse your own hyperbole for mine, I was clear the scale is vastly different. The point is that even if you do see those results when funding and teacher qualifications are equal, when implemented at large segregation has shown to be generally not equal in the distribution of resources. You see this pretty much anytime there is a history of discrimination followed by segregation of resources.

First off, that study itself admits that it couldn't find enough controlled studies to meet its own criteria for analyzing some areas where other studies have shown the greatest benefits: science attitudes, general school attitudes, general school achievement, body image, etc. Second, that study is essentially trying to push DIT theory (you can notice this by the portion of their studies dedicated to DIT) and even when faced with evidence AGAINST DIT theory, blames the disconnect not on the theory but on terminology, see here: quote:Developmental intergroup theory (DIT) posits that social factors Third, the vast majority of studies this meta-analysis looked at were studying older children, and a large portion of the single-sex schools were parochial or private schools which have a large number of other variables involved. Fourth, this meta-analysis conveniently left out within-group studies because of confounding variables. EDIT: That also fails to mention that at least one writer of that study is a supporter of American Council for CoEducational Schooling and has done multiple studies to show that single-sex classrooms are sexist, including articles in Science magazine with the leadership of the ACCES.

Everyone I knew that went to the boys only Catholic high school (ours was co-ed) had a homosexual experience while there. So I mean I don't know if being distracted by the opposite sex would be the only issue.

The real reason we need to ban co-ed classrooms is because the blood rushing from their brains upon seeing a glimpse of a female shoulder is far too much let them continue processing schoolwork. I don't understand why we keep letting them make decisions in adulthood, really.

Actually, its the tendancy for male aggression to be rewarded by social peers moreso than other forms of achievement. While female passive-aggression is rewarded among female peer groups, overt acts of male aggression are what it takes to quickly become popular in male peer groups. tl;dr you shove the loving nerds in the trashcans so your brahs laugh about it, and you sexually harass female students without reprimand from educators nor administrators

There really wasn't any bullying, cliques, or even harassment (relative to the time) of gay students for the high schools either though, so besides the everywhere presence of drugs and possible underage prostitution rings, it was a pretty okay social experience.

Yes, Amergin, you rationalize why you were shoved into lockers. I realized that last month. Depending on the cause of the nerdiness, an individual does not deserve to be shoved into a locker. For instance, shoving a beta bitch into a locker because he was sexually harassing De-Da during Trig? Acceptable. Shoving a beta bitch into a locker because he was focused during the course and refuses to join your gang? Unacceptable.

I only knew one rich indian kid, but he was huge into pot, yeah. Rich suburbanites are drugged out roughly 2/3rds of the time. When I was in my heavy drug use days I mostly got away with so much poo poo because my fellow users were rich white kids. Even though they had a big black kid (big enough to be done up Mike Brown Style, I was 5"8 and ~240lbs) with them (adolescent me), they were able to loiter every and anywhere. I didn't actually realize how good I had it till I got to college and my social circle became way more diverse and I had my first real bad interaction with the cops.

I wouldn't have assumed you were poor because you were black. I would have assumed you were poor because you were fat, short, black, in a staunchly middle-class area, and unlikely to have a $60 haircut. Fat because the fewer calories one consumes, the more one spends on food. Short due to a history of malnutrition and lower capital intensive food consumption. Black and in a staunchly middle-class area indicative of either family holding semi-professional or professional, and stable, careers (unlikely due to fat and short), and lack of haircut used as confirmation. Much different from 50 years ago when one could simply assume black in middle-class neighborhood as indicative of SES and ability to retaliate against harassment.

nutranurse posted:Ah. Yeah, that makes more sense. Its what individuals mean when they say America is a post-racial society. We've firmly moved beyond purely judging you on race as the sole determinant of SES and somene's ability to shake you down; now we use contextual clues in addition to race, like selling jiffies on the street corner while black and obese. Unfortunately for black males in America, if you're athletic and black without $60 haircut or $200,000 watch with matching outfit, or morbidly obese and black and engaged in lower-SES behavior, police doctrine is to respond in same manner due to threat assessment based upon race-blind context. One must consider race in order to understand contextual clues in modern law enforcement policy and doctrine in order to prevent Ferguson; alas, Missouri is too poo poo of a state to assist and efforts must be focused upon states where upward class mobility throughout lifecourse still exists and requires amplification.

The trouble, though, is that these states are forcing black people out of their homes/jobs/lives via your usual gamut of racial discrimination, gentrification, and the continual down slide to a lovely service-based economy. If things run their course the way they have been the past few years you'll have blacks all over the country living like we were stuck in loving Missouri. poo poo, I'd go so far as to say upward mobility doesn't exist in America for most minorities anymore. Either you made it before the recession hit and held on tight or were/are being swept under by the rising tide of FYGM.

Get the gently caress out of Missouri. poo poo gonna get much worse, for much longer, before it gets better. If you're stuck in Missouri, move, abandon all hope, die, or self-organize and govern yourself in a manner which is in accord with best-practices for development. When the state opposes you, ignore them and do poo poo correct. What are they gonna do, sue you for reducing pedestrian deaths and decreasing rates of segregation? Who's going to pay for their lawsuit? Like I said, gtfo of Missouri while better opportunities exist. There is upward mobility for everyone in America. You're not gonna find it in loving Missourah Folks laugh at me for saying Chicago does its poo poo right. We do; we're not loving Missourah, nor are we Indianjins. We're loving Chicago, so get your rear end to our perfect loving city and make it better with a higher wage. Management don't give a poo poo about you. Therefore, manage yourself better. Don't move to the suburbs; don't make immediate decisions because they're easy. Move to a real loving city before poo poo gets too late for you.
