>>11072475My teacher told me that originally, like in the 1950s as women going to school became the norm, existing tests and teaching techniques had been geared towards males, as only males had gone to school before that typically.
So girls got much lower marks than boys and struggled with the classroom environment.
So during womans liberation there was an effort to balance the syllabus by adding more female friendly stuff in classes like essay writing and story writing etc.
But they went too far with it ;) and no one can attempt to change how a school teachers to make it easier for boys, that's very sexist.
And now school is easier for girls, and why we used to think girls were too stupid to drive cars and now we think they are smarter.
Pro tip, never have we made a greater collective mistake than allowing the government to educate our children.
And that's why I had to write an essay on Einstein and what it would be like to be an immigrant in America for my high school astrophysics exam lol, and why in chemistry we we had to do titration, the test was marked on write up of the experiment with no marks for the actual titration experiment.
