Reply #27: I think this is just because

teachers are so overwhelmingly female today, especially in elementary schools.

When the teacher wants to make her project more interesting, she naturally thinks of what would be more interesting to her, and that's going to be girl stuff. I think that's only human nature.

I think that just like it's important to have minority teachers at every school, it's also important to have male teachers at every school. Kids need role models to look up to, especially when so many have no dads at home.
