This piece hit hard for me, as it tracks with why my daughter stopped playing soccer at recess. The boys wouldn't let the girls play with them--only against them and with fewer players. But when girls scored anyway, some boys would cheat and play to hurt the girls, to the point where it wasn't fun.
"the issue isn’t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. It’s that boys are socialized to compete only with boys and to read girls’ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boys—and hostile climates for girls."

BREAKING: NYT reporting that Trump has just fired 8 immigration judges in New York City who worked at 26 Federal Plaza. That's NYC ICE HQ.
In the city that declares "give us your tired your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free," Trump shuts down due process for immigrants. This is fascism.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Trump isn't doing anything to lower costs for your family, but he is using the full force of the presidency to make himself and his family very, very, very, very rich.
