Single-sex classroom research: Fake brain science supports gender segregation..
The problem with such generalizations is that there are plenty of boys and girls who don’t conform to them—girls who are very physical or good at math, and boys who are very sensitive or good at reading—and are therefore being marginalized in such environments.
…In children, especially, research finds that gender segregation exaggerates their beliefs in hardwired, immutable differences between the sexes. So while girls or boys may love their single-sex classes and even feel temporarily empowered in them, the loss of opportunity to work with members of the other sex ultimately fosters a distorted belief in gender difference that restricts all children’s potential.
Considerable research has now proven that single-sex education does not produce better academic outcomes than co-education. Which raises the question: Why have gender segregation at all in K-12 schools?
sigh….

Police
Two-phone standoff after cop stops man for \’walking with hands in pockets\’ – CNET.
There is no evidence that McKean did anything wrong. However, the officer explains: “You’re making people nervous.”
When McKean wonders what he’s done, the officer replies: “Yeah, they said you had your hands in your pockets.”
As McKean expresses outrage that walking with your hands in your pockets on a cold day is cause for people to call the police, the officer insists: “Well, we do have a lot of robberies around here.”
Sigh.

Sheriff Defends Stopping Black Man For Walking With Hands In His Pockets.
Sheriff Piggyscum says the police have to respond to all 911 calls and the officer was just doing his job.
Bull-fucking-shit.
“The crazy thing is, I know somebody who got their house broken into and they called the police, and the police took about two hours to come,” he said. “And they came and pulled up on me in under five minutes for walking with my hands in [my] pockets, and that doesn’t make sense.”

Dallas food critic Leslie Brenner
From Dallas’s top kitchens, reviewer Leslie Brenner is feeling the heat
Tesar is working with a production company to develop a Gordon Ramsay-style reality TV show. He’s been asking various critics and food writers to be a part of the program, including, you guessed it, Leslie Brenner. Tesar thinks it would be “brilliant television” if she signed on.
So it’s all a fucking publicity stunt. Losers.
