Why men are to blame for the crunch 2:33pm on 29 Jul 2009 Even if you do successfully argue that men at the top were single-handedly responsible for the crunch, I could argue it was the same men and their male ancestors who generated the infrastructure and financial success of this (and every other country) in the first place, so you have to take the bad with the good.
It's not worth whining about anyway, we're not all going to starve to death or anything, it just means some of us haven't got so much spare cash to spend on rubbish that we don't really need in the first place.
Challenging gang culture 8:25pm on 09 Jul 2009
Having said all these usual things about lack of family and strong role models, you do have to concede that the problem lies almost entirely with male youths, not females, though they lack the same parental guidance and role models as the boys you'd assume, so why do they not go off the rails in the same way?
It's obviously something inherent in young males which needs to be quelled, the aforementioned problems only exacerbate the issue rather than cause it.
It's certainly true though that having no one to look up to but footballers, rappers and miscellaneous celebs cannot do anything but produce a bunch of lazy slackers who never intend to do a days work in their lives.
