Summary

This quote suggests that when we become aware of the challenges faced by boys and men, we may wonder why these issues were not recognized earlier. The answer is that throughout history, societies have ensured their survival by teaching boys to be expendable or sacrificial. This could indicate that society neglected to address these challenges due to the perception that sacrificing men is necessary for the greater good or preservation of society. The quote raises questions about the historical disregard for men's issues and highlights the need for recognizing and addressing them now.
