What rush?

The main thing is poverty and boys. The white bit is less important, which is why I suspect this thread will concentrate on it unless we establish this at the start. Poverty we can do something about, being boys is an attitude thing, but I would like to throw in the shortage of male teachers at primary level as a starter, with consideration given to the view propagated in some sections of the media and society that a man who wants to work with young children is automatically a paedophile.
