[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have made it culturally cool to be a smart girl now. [/quote] We have not made it cool though to be a smart boy. And our schools are failing boys generally. They are set up for girls to succeed and sit quietly in classrooms, but not for boys to jump around and learn, tactilely or experientially.[/quote] This is such blatant goal-post moving. For the entire history of formal education until 25 years ago, boys did just fine in school. Girls were supposed to be ill-suited for academic rigor. Too delicate, too emotional, or whatever. Now that girls excel in the environment that was [i]built for boys[/i], it's unfair to boys? That's some bullshit. [/quote] What do you mean built for boys? They modified the environment to benefit the girls. What do you know, you can't serve both well at the same time.[/quote] How was the environment modified for girls? [/quote]
