Study: America's Young Men No Longer As Ballsy
Has the “mancession” been so severe that it is now affecting the masculinity of the American teenager?
According to Allstate Foundation’s ‘Shifting Teen Attitudes: The State of Teen Driving 2009,’ 27 percent of girls admit to speeding at least 10 miles over the speed limit, vs. 19 percent of boys. Also, 16 percent of girls report that they are very aggressive while driving, up from 9 percent in 2005. Meanwhile, 13 percent of teen boys admitted to being very aggressive while driving, vs. 20 percent in 2005.
Or are girls just getting braggier while boys are learning to shut up a little bit when asked about dangerous behavior by insurance companies? I call for more research!
