Where are the real men today?

Could plastic-bottled water be affecting the hormonal balance of today's boys? Could modern teaching methods of current curriculum be contributing to a drop in young mens' motivation and drive? As our culture changes in the United States, what is happening to the young men of today, such as myself?
Well, according to Dr. Leonard Sax, a family physician who has been researching this phenomenon for more than seven years, says there are multiple causes, and some could be environmental.
On the Coast To Coast Am radio program, Sax talked about his new book "Boys Adrift" how the young men of today could be increasingly programmed chemically and psychologically to "not" become men, but to become more female. There are various factors contributing to the steady decline of performance, ambition and fertility in America's boys and young men.
Sperm counts and testosterone levels of young men in the United States have declined substantially over the past 50 years, Sax reported. Environmental estrogens from plastic-bottled drinks may be partially to blame. Here is the program> http://www.coasttocoastam.com/shows/2008/02/16.html#recap
A recap of the program reads, "According to Sax, consuming only two bottles of water provides about the same amount of estrogen as found in a birth control pill. The elevated estrogen intake may be lowering testosterone levels in men, causing them to lose motivation to do anything, Sax added.
To make matters worse, boys are no longer allowed to be boys at school, he said. 'Violent' masculine activities such as dodge ball and snowball fights are prohibited at many schools, Sax pointed out, noting that boys are encouraged to "be more like girls." Typical male conduct at school is often altered with behavior medication, Sax said, which can also damage the motivational centers in boys' brains.
Sax also thinks that accelerated early education programs/curriculum ignore important gender differences and end up creating academic environments that do not appeal to boys. Unmotivated to pursue academic excellence and other real-world goals, these boys find contentment in video games and online pornography. For them, what happens in the "virtual world is more important than the real world," Sax said."
I encourage everyone to either buy or read his book. For more information log on to http://www.boysadrift.com/
