Rich white suburbs are bastions of patriarchy, and true gender equality will be achieved when the whole country looks like Detroit.

Seriously, both girls and boys are doing better in rich suburbs. A better environment appears to help boys more than girls.

It's only a crisis if boys do better than girls in some way. When boys outperform girls then the curriculum must be modified to tamp down the boys ability to achieve. When girls outpeform boys in school, woo hoo, you go girls!

Rich white suburbs = higher IQs. Men have a higher std deviation around IQs then women. It’s not surprising higher IQ men will outperform.

Rich men tend to go for pretty women. Pretty women tend to be airheads. Airheadery apparently passes down on the female side.

There is also a theory that high-earning families invest more in sons, because men in this socioeconomic group earn more than women, while low-earning families invest more in daughters, because working-class women have more job opportunities than men.

B.S., if that was the takeaway from the study then it was a total waste of time. Let's study who does best at baseball in K-12.

Good looking girls know they don’t need to know math it takes care of if self with age.
