25% of kids on prescription meds!? What tha?

So you have observed how many young boys in your life with female traits ? maybe 500 (at best). So based on maybe 500 boys you are making a statement that groups what you observed to millions of boys in America ? You get where i am going here ?

What if he cited a study that was conducted on 25, 50 or 100 males?

It would still be only a study on sampling.

Media portrayal is a good indicator of this.

Also, personally as an educator, I see ALOT of this.

Growing up in a city environment there was a lot of racial tension. So because i got in a fight with a lot of black people does that mean all black people are violent ? You can't take what one person observes and use that information to draw up a factual conclusion. You would need to do a study with 1000's of people from all walks of life. Different religious beliefs, environmental differences etc. Thats my point. When you guys say "boys" do you understand how many variables are involved here ?

Absolutely agree...there's tons of variables.

I never said I'm stating fact (crap! I forgot to add "imo" after my post).

But it's an opinion based on observation (literally thousands of students every year), and study of those who are specialists in their fields (sociology, anthropology, etc).

I agree with that.
