Profs: Boys are better at physics because they play ‘pee games’
College Fix ^ | September 16, 2017 | Staff

A trio of Australian academics say that the gender gap in physics — boys being better at the subject than girls — can be traced to the “pee games” in which boys engage during their youth.

Nothing was said why guys like to pee outside. It’s because we develop aiming anxiety from being yelled at for missing the pot. Outside we can hit anything we want to.

I still sucked at physics because my teacher was an incompetent, unfireable slog who belonged to a powerful union.

There were a lot misled yutes back in the day.

The same kid used to go into an office building on the way home from school, empty the soap bulb in the bathroom and fill it up with piss.

No way. Girls get plenty of physics practice as they throw stuff around when they don’t get their way.

“Mom, I want to cut my tally-whacker off.”
“Why on earth would you want to do that?”
“Well, Suzie has hers cut off and tucked in. And she can pee two boards higher than I can.”

I did OK at physics - until - we got to electricity, and the watts m the ohms, and whatever got to me and I was only able to manage a “B” grade for that quarter. This was in my HS junior year.

I do think boys are better at some aspects of physics because they are better as spacial concepts.

I still remember the janitor hid in the stall and busting our distance contest, he took us all to the Principals office.

He was tired of cleaning up the mess. It was the first trip, and the first swat.

playful urination practices...may give boys an advantage over girls

These researchers are confusing correlation with causation.

I first learned about Newtonian Motion by peeing in an arc when I was 2 years of age!

And fluid dynamics.
