Summary

Increasingly, boys appear to be falling behind girls academically. Test statistics, grades and college degrees are part of the story, but experts are also concerned about the messages young men get about masculinity. Gwen Ifill talks with Michael Thompson, author of Raising Cain, Ever Forward Club founder Ashanti Branch and Christina Hoff Sommers, author of The War Against Boys.
