The sociologist and the man of cinema Gerry Garibaldi, a high school teacher and Michael Kimmel, a sociology professor, both explain how the consequences of the feminist movement are harming kids in school and later in life. Kimmel and Garibaldi present their views on the problems of gender education in their articles “How The Schools Shortchange Boys” and “A War Against Boys.” Both make passionate arguments and demonstrate that boys are at a disadvantage in modern feminized classrooms. Kimmel's arguments about the problems kids face in the American education system are more convincing than Garibaldi's because his style of argument is more objective, supported by more statistics, and provides an even-handed restatement of opposing points of view. Garibaldi shares her professional experience for example: she says, "women diagnosed with learning disabilities simply don't exist" (426). Even though the number of girls included in special education programs is lower than that of boys, Garibaldi did not hesitate to reduce the number to zero. He is more emotionally connected than Kimmel, much more aggressive and seems incredibly indignant. Kimmel in his article “A War on Boys” presents three key problems with boys: lower grades, lower class rank, and less honors, but unlike Garibaldi he does not take the boys' side. He discusses the differences between the behavior of boys and girls in academia, “girls suppress ambition, boys inflate it” (432). Kimmel believes that girls perform better in some academic areas and boys in others. It provides a logical explanation for the increase in test scores of girls compared to boys. Kimmel says: “Girls are more likely to underestimate their abilities, especially in more traditionally “masculine” educational fields such as math and science. Only the most capable and confident girls attend courses in this field. Therefore, their numbers tend to be low and their average scores high”
