Women Made Men Into Boys

[From article]
"Hymowitz: Diagnosing "man-child" malady.
"For the first time ever, and I do mean ever," Kay Hymowitz writes in her new book, "Manning Up: How the Rise of Women Has Turned Men Into Boys," "young women are reaching their 20s with more achievements, more education, more property, and, arguably, more ambition than their male counterparts." Hymowitz recounts what is becoming the familiar litany of the success of young, single women -- higher graduation rates from college, better grades, more advanced degrees, higher earnings in some big cities and so on -- that makes the male of the species seem the decidedly weaker sex.
[. . .]
Hymowitz refers to as "pre-adulthood." Pre-adults are college-educated singles in their 20s and 30s living predominantly in cities."
