What are your thoughts on this article about girls excelling in all subjects even math and science? I agree with it. I have 2 older brothers. One managed to finish high school then run from education and the other one couldn't even finish high school. And the one that finished was only working for his C's to pass while the other one was failing which is why he never finished. I also remember when I was in elementary school (grade 6) and my mom told my brother in high school to get tutored from me . She's like give her your textbooks and she's explain it to you in no time and help you pass. He was like, "I am not having my little sister help me. It's not happening." So, he failed high school.

Yea it seems to me based on personal impression, that females tend to take their academics more seriously than men as a whole. Makes sense especially considering that females mature sooner than boys biologically.

Could you elaborate a little on how, from a teacher's perspective, a class of only boys differs from one of only girls. Is, for example, a boys only class more noisy?

Girl classes are more active meaning they will do their work but also chat with each other, try to eat snacks while doing their work, and try to do each other's hair or make up if not just their own. Boy classes are not as noisy because they don't go, "Oh, my gosh! Did you hear about this and this?!" every 5 or so minutes or talk about new stuff they bought and so on. Most of the time they sit there quietly and barely give effort on their work. Sometimes they'll talk with other students in class too and sometimes they'll put effort. Otherwise, they just show up to class and look like they're working. Boys are better in behavior though. I have seen about 5x as many girls start fights or get suspended or expelled than boys just this year. Last week a girl got expelled from school because she started 3 fights in 1 week I believe and just 2 girls were taken out of class today for trying to blindfold the other girl and cut her hair off among other things. Only in high schools do boys start to fight more and girls decline on that then. But in middle schools girls start all the drama and fights.

Yeah, for entire schools. I think that this principle - a principle of mixed classes - is an idea for the modern, and from postmodern too. The weird one. The idea was to erase usurp, dictation, a stable power, and the center at last. So, it was the devastation of the straight. I don't think that there's something wrong about the idea of separated schools. What bad reasons caused many goverments to stop providing this system further? Everything went good there...

I like the idea. Girls will practice being girls in a girl school and boys will practice being boys. And no more of these surgeries to change genders. People need to acknowledge the differences and separate the two genders.

Do girls still outperform boys in all subjects? Or, more specifically, do boys perform better in all-boys classes than in mixed ones?

No, they do not outperform in all subjects. Some things taught in schools are clearly for boys or girls only because on sex excels at it more than the other. I know someone who's in a class currently and it's about machinery and parts on a vehicle. Clearly, a male subject. Sure enough there are a few females there for some odd reason. I would never even consider taking such a class because it's not for females. With this being said I was told the females in that class are sufferring the most on tests and on passing the class. When I heard this I was like, "Well, duh, it's not a class for them". I had a class that was for cooking and sewing before and mostly females took it which makes sense. The guys were not the best at it especially the sewing part. So, boys mostly outperform in male classes and girls outperform in female classes. The other classes just depend because both are capable to do well. Whether boys do better in boy only classes than in mixed is hard to tell so far since I haven't been long in only boy classes. But I would say yes if I had to guess. I was distracted with boys in class so I'm sure they'd be distracted with girls in classes. However, I always finished my work fast and was a perfectionist and after that it was boy time until the teacher made me help another student

I personally think men and women are different, and what one lacks/desires, the other will posses. So with that in mind we are different, seek to be neutral, and after a strange turn of events we are the same It all depends on what scope you have men and woman under, whether in a great city or a small village. In a village woman grow up to be more homey/lady-like. In a country town you like country. In a beat-box area you like rap. … in a fancy higher standard of living you are raised to enjoy opera.. etc, Christian town vs. non Christian My opinion would be that men are without doubt - when compared to woman athletically, better performers as we have more muscle mass. Woman should then be more able mentally as they have more grey area (mass). So then men should not be compared to girls physically, tbh that's a little gay to begin with, just as stable guys are never quite as emotionally adept as woman. Imo we should get rid of sports until mankind is ready to play without idolizing players. Imagine if we took a 5 year break from all common fallacies media wise?!? it would be like a dream Another thing is girls are much more emotionally intelligent, which should be viewed as more valuable. A computer can be better at all games virtually but not even close when handling how to properly respond to dramatic and emotionally filled moments. But two emotional people in a relationship have no rock to comfort ground and balance them. People need set ideas and they need the robust as well in order to be happy continually, girls and guys. Men are naturally more logical and directive, hence why I believe men are supposed to be leaders, but the common myth that woman should be submissive and men should be dominant is a great American lie. Resilient, persistent, and affirmative sounds better. Last note: Considering the world we live today, with the great imbalance of the male and female, it would actually be hard to depict the perfect man and the perfect woman, almost like waiting for scientific breakthrough, we need the world to be revolutionized at least once to begin to have an idea of what the beauty of boys and girls alike really are. People who read more break free from the deception a little, but go to any school and it is the best sports players who is the most popular, and the girls who are the most revealing is the prom queen. But if you think about it the other 900 kids in the school don't even play sports, then this can not be an accurate or equal measure of man's success, and either is a business suit and a desk job. We have in Christianity, the Apostles, John, the Prophets, as ideal characters for God's purpose, but there are not as easy to find sources of feminine religious world leaders. That's why I like Hinduism so much, as the great being Shiva is always trying to marry his girlfriend Auspiciousness and cleverness will always be a desirable trait at any point in time, and we should focus more on essential meaning, rather than man made monopolies, such as sports, tv, and modeling. Even things like the food network could take a break, home décor could take a break, advertising for new clothing, automobile sales.. and especially war. Most things on tv could take a break, until we resolve the problems television hides from us.

just10spHi, Justin! Nice to see you here again! I want to ask you a question on your quote I think that it is not an American lie, because this view's been widespread in many different nations for a long time. And a verb "should" isn't correct. Often someone who blames this traditional view uses verbs of necessity, but the explanation of this might be that it is a way of using such words in daily life. For example, once in past: "A father tells his son that he should be a brave men" the verb "should" here might be understood as not a sentence with the order, or with intentions of the father to raise his son as a oppressor of women, but it is the way of life, that can be explained as a way of surviving. If the father knew that to survive a man needs to be brave, he would say in a manner like that. So, an adjective "brave" is the same story. It's just a short term of a set of personal qualities are required to survive world. Constantly I've been using "surviving" as the main principle, and as a proof that uses in those explanation, but I think it's right way, because men, mostly, see world as hunters. Also speaking, hunting, parenting, praying, living, surviving and many other complexes of life forms in past were the ones that had influenced to stand of a present form of a rational person. So, those traditions may be viewed as helpful abilities for rationality; loosing them would be equal to plan humanity suicide.
