Girls get better grades even in stem subjects what do you think about that

The education system is designed to help girls and women learn. This is not a surprise.

Okay...

They still do not chose to go in STEM subjects such as IT, as much as men do, but clearly there is no hurdle in the way of women.

Please.

In all my science classes they paired up the girls with the guys so the guys could do the work for them.

i think that i dont care which is probably why they always got better grades than me

Academic system is poorly designed. Someone with above average cramming ability can easily score good grades.

Teachers mark down boys grades and the entire public education system revolves around helping girls learn.

Beyond that grades don't seem to matter much in terms of practical application. Once women have to actually accomplish something they tend to quickly fall behind the men of the field in terms of skill.

Even if we ignore that, my argument against the whole "girls can do anything better than boys" is: then why don't they? If girls are so much better at everything then why haven't they accomplished anything on their own? Why haven't they made a better version of penicillin? Why haven't they developed stable nuclear fission energy? Why haven't they terraformed Mars? Why have men been the ones carrying the development of human society on their shoulders this entire time?

Read this paper again.

Flashback: Electronics Engineering Technology. College, circa 1997. There were two females in a huge class of men with multiple sections.

Electronics final exam. There's a stir in the room. I look up. The professor is talking to the two girls who were inseparable. One of them is crying. A couple minutes later they girls got up and left. Apparently they were told to go home and study a bit more for a retry. I really doubt they got different questions. MAYBE the professor changed a few variables like Volts or Ohms or Amps, but that has no effect as long as you know which equation to use and how to use it.

And I'm sure they got a nice quiet room with the profession near by with no pressure and unlimited time.

Not all "science" can be trusted.

Good for them. What dumb point are you making lol

Costaricansportsfan · 2022-01-24T16:45:59+00:00

Good for them ig? This is just like saying men are better in sports

Well, girls are intelligent. It’s just that women are generally to pursue fashion or the arts, while men are more likely to join the STEM fields, as cliché as that sounds. Women who enter the STEM fields even outcompete their male counterparts, so girls have a lot of potential, they just choose to use it elsewhere.

Hopefully it is because they work harder

sgt_oddball_17 · 2022-01-24T18:47:30+00:00

It's almost like when you have to constantly prove yourself because you're taken less seriously than your male counter parts you have do your best to out perform them. Couldn't possibly be because of that now could it? Also, just because women do better in school doesn't mean that they get more opportunities in the workforce.

Ok? I'm not sure what your point is...

unihazard · 2022-01-24T21:22:50+00:00

What relevance does it have in the real world ? School is about hoop Jumping conforming nobody ŵho is anybody did well at school!! New technology comes from not conforming .How many billionaires completed college ? Darwin and Einstein failed school! The theory of relativity was written when Einstein was a wages clerk !
