Interesting topic. The author seemed to paint with a very broad brush, as he no doubt intended to, so it was hard for me ignore that this may only be true to his core audience. It could hardly be as true, (if at all) for a straight white kid growing up in Harlem, Cleveland, Watts, Detroit, or little Havana. To reiterate, it wasn't true for me growing up as one of two white kids in the 3rd and 4th grade. The real world is what you make of it. If you make excuses, then that's all you'll ever have...
