1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: New Jersey and Amanda gam Nation. You may have seen

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: this on the news last night, and this is a

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: story we spoke about last year. Newington an elite private

4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: boys school which is situated in the Cydney suburb of

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: stand More. It costs for a year twelve student to

6
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: go through you twelve boy, it costs about forty two

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year post tax dollars. It's incredible, isn't it.

8
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 1: Private schools are very expensive. This has always been a boys' school,

9
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: but they are making moves to make it co ed.

10
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: So this is what they're saying, is that maybe as

11
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: early as twenty twenty six, girls will be admitted to

12
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: the school. A number of parents were protesting outside the

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: school yesterday. I'm just afraid that it's all part of

14
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 1: this sort of woke, toxic masculinity type plava that will pass.

15
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: I love the opportunity's school provides, and I would hate

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: to say other boys be stripped of out opportunity. Basically,

17
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: they've been setting the parents a lie for many years.

18
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: I tend to agree you go to a boys school

19
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: and some boy school, but these are the times we

20
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: live in. It happened to the Scouts. They let girls

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: get into the Scouts. Did they wreck it Brendan, I

22
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: don't know, But then vice versa, would boys be allowed

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: to go into the girl Guides. I have two sons

24
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: who did go to private school, went to boys only schools.

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: I wish that there were more private co ed schools.

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: I would have liked to co ed school for them,

27
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: but they loved their experience. So I see this through

28
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: a different lens as well, through the boys' eyes. Is

29
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 1: that I think co education is the best thing, and

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: the research shows that boys and girls both aren't affected

31
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: when it's co ed. There were early studies that said

32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: that girls didn't go as well in maths and things

33
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: like that are in sport, but by the time you're

34
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: in senior school, it's from what I can read here,

35
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: it's pretty much aligned. The experiences are the same. But

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: why aren't girls' schools being pressured to take in boys.

37
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: This has happened to Cranbrook, it's now happening at Newington

38
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: and co ed now they're about to become co ed.

39
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: They've done a lot of work to become co ed

40
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: and the same sort of thing. There are number of

41
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: parents who said I've signed up my son to have

42
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: a single sex education. There have been problems at private

43
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: boys schools. This is what this is about. That thing

44
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: about toxic masculinity is about let's try and chip down

45
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: the sense of entitlement for young men. I understand all

46
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: of that, but why are girls allowed to keep their

47
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: single sex culture? And boys are the ones being pressured

48
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 1: to change? I, as I said, think co ed is best,

49
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: but I can kind of understand even though parents sound

50
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: old fashioned saying I want a single sex education for

51
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: my son, why aren't the girls schools being pressured the

52
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: same way? And I must say, when I watched the

53
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: news last night, I lost all sympathy for the argument

54
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: when I heard this guy. I'm an old boy the school,

55
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: and my son is also an old boy. And the

56
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: intention was always that I'd have a grandson. But I

57
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: won't bring it to a co ed school. How if

58
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: the worst thing in your world is that your grandson

59
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,399
Speaker 1: may be sitting alongside some girls at school. Dude, we're

60
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: on the brink of World War three. Read the World
