[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, everyone knows… girls are better brown nosers (recs) and more organized (grades) and more desperate for social approval (willingness to participate in EC nonsense just to get into college). College admissions plays to their strengths (except for standardized testing but, voila, test optional). My DS is soooo much smarter than so many girls in his class who landed at higher ranked schools. But they were more able and willing to play the game. [b]It will all work out in the end though[/b].

Yep, people who play the game end up on top. Smarts are just smarts, and don't have much value after the standardized the testing days. Who's to say which is really smarter, but the distinction is small and there aren't many tasks that require extraordinary intelligence.[/quote]

Boys mature later and are more durable. Most of these girls will end up as housewives trying to outmaneuver one another on the PTA and the like.  If they are lucky. Otherwise they will have to grind it out supporting themselves while drowning in family responsibilities and getting fat. [/quote]

Did you hear that? Your mom just called you upstairs. Your Hot Pocket is ready.[/quote]

Ma!  The meatloaf! We want it now![/quote]
