Great article. However, the story won't be "boys are the underperforming sex", it will be "women are naturally smarter".

[–]iainmf 13 points14 points15 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

They (eg Emma Watson) actually say that having more women in university is a great win for gender equality.

[–]TracyMorganFreeman 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Obama even said as much in a state of the union speech.

[–]xNOM 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Also, underperforming where?

It is curious, however, as we look at the SAT data, that despite getting better grades and taking more difficult classes, boys still get better SAT scores in math than girls. In 2016, boys slightly outperformed girls on critical reading, with a mean score of 495. The mean score for girls was 493. On the math portion, the mean for boys was 524, compared to 494 for girls.

But on the writing portion, which has only been around since 2006, girls outperform boys, with a mean score of 487. The mean score for boys was 475.

"Curious" LOL.

Girls seem to be "underperforming" on the SAT. So much so, that they had to make up a new section in 2006. So... what's a more unbiased measure of academic performance:

  1. grades given by almost exclusively female high school teachers who have a demonstrable bias against boys according to several studies, or

  2. a standardized test graded by a machine, which has been revised several times already over concerns that it is biased against girls

15-year old boys outperform girls on the math part of the standardized PISA test everywhere in the world. They outperform girls in the overall score only in the most developed countries. The PISA test is given only to 15-year olds.

Sex differences in academic achievement are not related to political, economic, or social equality

[–]TracyMorganFreeman 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Clearly grading assessments are in favor of girls, either in what is graded, how they are graded, or both.

[–]functionalsociopathy 13 points14 points15 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

but boys aren't real people, we can't honestly be expected to treat them like they're equal to the actual students can we?

[–]HerbertRTarlekJr 23 points24 points25 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

And we're surprised, after decades of carrying on a war on boys?

[–]feedmecarrots 11 points12 points13 points 9 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

Feminism has worked for this for decades. That is why most teachers are women and most of themj are feminist. I don't know how to turn it around. They have done all that they could to take motivation away from boys.

[–]MagmaiKH 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

K-12 teaching has been dominated by women for a lot, lot longer than a few decades.

[–]feedmecarrots 3 points4 points5 points 9 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

True but this institutionalized hate for boys is relatively new.

[–]yvaN_ehT_nioJ[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago* (3 children) | Copy Link

Youll be happy to hear some places are starting to teach about boys' plight. I graduated with a degree in education and one of the courses required for my uni's ed. program had us read a book called Why Boys Fail, which is similar in topic and outlook as Sommers's book and actually cites her and other authors.

It was very eye opening for the class. The program as a whole was full of mostly women as education programs often are, and the profs were all women, but they were worried about and included info on how boys were performing poorly in our curriculum.

Edit: revised the 2nd paragraph due to typos

[–]Halafax 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The program asa whole os mostly women as ed. Programs often are, and the profs were all women, but they were worried about and included info on how boys were performing poorly in our curriculum.

Calling it now: more medication.

[–]yvaN_ehT_nioJ[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Medication wasn't really touched upon actually! They emphasized how the structure of classes benefited girls, how boys weren't getting enough opportunities to run around and be boys, in fact they said they were probably being over-medicated with things like Ritalin and the like.

Though this was at a Christian uni so I can't speak to how public universities cover the topic.

[–]feedmecarrots 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It is encouraging. I have to wonder how much it will carry over into practice. There have to be a lot of man and boy hating feminists in education.

[–]chambertlo 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

When the environment for learning is this vicious for men, of course women will excel. Being a man in 2016 is not easy.

[–]MagmaiKH 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I read a book ~10 years ago that went into all of this and how schools were rearranged to favor girls. The author was a psychologist and took care to cite every claim made about the differences in how boys and girls learn and develop. Can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

[–]tigrn914 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Equality has been achieved /s

Girls outperforming boys in high school ... 10 years ago!

This is because boys misbehave more.

Lol...It's High School. Is Elon Musk a Women? Is the creator of Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, etc a women? Women are good for nothing.

[–]DEMENTED_CHEEZE 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Let's go to the other extreme. What percentage of homeless people you see on the street are women?

[–]copper_chicken 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Might want to consider here that there are more shelters for women than men. So where else besides that streets are they gonna be?

Source: Had a friend that went homeless in Providence. He couldn't get into many shelters because they were women only. No men allowed. That's some fine equality right there.

[–]DEMENTED_CHEEZE 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Equality indeed. I wonder what would happen if there were male exclusive shelters too

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

100%.
