[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Of course there are plenty of boys who do well in school. But that doesn't explain why there is now a huge gender gap in college with too many females on campus now compared to males. Clearly it means the education system in the country is gigantically failing boys and men, and it is because over the last 30-40 years they've swung too far to the other way and teach only to the way girls learn. [/quote] Maybe, but what percentage of kids go to college. This could be explained by the bell curve, which is different for boys and girls. Both have about the same average, but girls will have a much higher share close to the average. If the top 20% go to college, it will be disproportionately boys. If the top 40% go to college it will be more boys, but not as lopsided. If the top 50% it is same number of boys and girls. Top 60% it will be lopsided towards girls. The bottom 20% is dominated by boys.[/quote]
