What does the #MeToo Movement have to do with Jewish teenage boys? (“Jewish Groups Take On Masculinity, Consent Education,” (Nov. 23)
How can these kids possibly have “conversations” about adult women’s “stories of sexual harassment and assault”? The only possible answer is the distasteful assumption that (Jewish) boys will grow up into male abusers, which is radical feminist doctrine that has no place in the Jewish community nor in The Jewish Week.
The sad reality is that boys, including Jewish boys, are being marginalized and falling farther behind with the feminization of school standards and absence of masculine role models for the precarious shepherding of boys into manhood.
