Study: Kindergarten Rigged Against Boys


Is the End of Men nothing but a vast conspiracy against boys enacted by female elementary school teachers? The (male) head of economics at the University of Georgia’s Terry College of Business thinks so.

In a study published in the Journal of Human Resources, Christopher Cornwell analyzed data on 5,800 elementary school students, finding "for the first time," that "gender disparities in teacher grades start early and uniformly favor girls." This based on his findings that boys do better on standardized tests than their grades would suggest. Girls are only getting ahead when it comes to “non-cognitive” skills like their docile and obsequious "approach to learning."
