What are DU opinions on Scott Galloway?

4. I think he has a worthwhile message

regarding young men. The first time I heard him on the topic - I reacted as if he was promoting a more aggressive culture for young men. The next time, I listened more carefully.
I think he makes a good case that young men are lost right now. The expectations of them are the same as they have ever been but the playing field has changed. Women expect more from the men in their lives and young men have not figured out what that is. They feel they are in competition with young women now and the women are more energized for their future. They may be more afraid of approaching young women socially as well. Also, young men are still trapped in the need to compete with other men but the avenues for doing so are more limited. Rather than compete, they are dropping out. Galloway talks about the young men living in their parents' basements and the high rate of suicide in young men.

There will always be the automatic winners in society - those that will succeed as a given. The vast majority though have to struggle to find their place in the world. Going to college gives young people an opportunity to figure out their place but college is not for everyone. Young men who are not sure of their place or future are then vulnerable to a lot of influences while they figure it out. I do believe they need more education in social matters so they can navigate changing social mores.
