美国女生独领校园风骚
(总述)
还记得以前女生只能当护士而非医生,速记员而非执行董事,教师而非校长吗?
现在情形一去不返了。
现在,多个学区纷纷表示男生正逐渐淡出学校生活,学校成了女生的天下,我们想知道这究竟是为什么。
(论点发挥)
女生成绩好就不会常常被人取笑。
我觉得人们对男生的期望是成为体育明星,拿足球奖座回家。
我认为女生可能有较强的目标取向性,而男生大体上都较喜欢随大流。
呵,如果我的高中成绩好,那当然好;
成绩不好,也没什么大不了的。
我想,如果情况继续这么下去的话,一定会成为大问题,因为男生的成绩在不断下降。
所有男女平等运动采用的说法都是有关学校如何忽视女生的。
关于怎样伸手协助男生的计划几乎没有。
为提升女孩子的地位,人们夸大了女孩子有多脆弱,同时对男孩子的需要轻描淡写,把男孩子描绘成男权社会的特权分子。
我看男生并没有更受到忽视。
我可以说现今学校里是男女生都被忽视。
我不赞成女性事事要超越男性的说法。
大多数人明白男女平等就是要确保男孩子女孩子都能享有平等的教育机会。
我觉得,是该让男女生都有机会。
我不认为女权主义危及男生的生活。
男人们上哪去了?
为何男性不为男生争取利益?
男生受人追崇的,并不在学业方面罢了。

和你在一起
我伫立在桥上
在黑暗中等待
我以为此刻你应该已到来
但我身边只有大雨滂沱
没有任何脚步声传来
我一直在聆听/但没有声音
难道没有人在寻找我
没有人肯带我回家
在这寒冷的夜里
我试着理清我的生活
你能否牵着我的手
带我到一个崭新的世界
我并不知道你是谁,但我
我在寻找一个地点
我在找寻一张面孔
这里是否有我认识的人
只因一切都似乎出错
变得如此混乱不堪
没有人喜欢孤独
我并不知道你是谁,但我
为什么这一切让我困惑
也许我只是一时头脑不清
