“A meta-analysis on gender differences in mathematics performance showed that males have an advantage when the mathematical concepts require more reasoning and are more spatial in nature.”

Three things.

First, I believe the above is true.

Second, boys have a larger standard deviation on most traits. That means that more of the boys will be vastly overrepresented at the extreme levels, both better and worse.

Three, more girls in college earning degrees does not mean they are going to surpass boys in mathematics.

As always anything in the msm focus on spinning equivalency.

It just means more social workers and Masters of Public Administration.
