Un pregiudizio è un errore che si ripete all'infinito, e i ragazzi ne sono le vittime preferite. La psicologia, spesso inconsapevolmente, si è resa complice di questa deriva, contribuendo al loro inscatolamento all'interno di categorie remote, create quando si andava ancora con la carrozza a cavalli e la speranza di vita non superava i cinquant'anni.
