The findings have been that the teaching style favored boys, by focusing on more independent and non collaborative learning. The data is that girls tend to favor a more collaborative learning style.

And I can point out study after study to support that.

Your personal incredulity is not material to the issue - particularly since you have already scoffed at any concern for boys' education.

IMO, we ought to be promoting the best education for all kids, boys and girls, not trying to balance some historic inequity by gloating over a reverse of that inequity at the expense of kids today.
