[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meanwhile: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/14/upshot/boys-kindergarten-redshirting.html[/quote] This is almost entirely predicted on the work on a centrist incel and then cites some research on both sides. It's very much not making the point you think it is. The research cited actually seems to say that redshirted kids may gain a competitive advantage earlier and that redshirting may even lead to disadvantages in the job market. Either way it's completely insane to basically argue an entire sex should be delayed in starting school.[/quote] This article made me wonder - do other countries have this problem? It seems like a recent and American issue (both the gender gap in school performance and redshirting itself).[/quote] Gender gap is less pronounced in other western countries but it’s still there. Driven by truly subterranean performance by low SES boys across the board. [/quote]
