Jebus...
Why do you say that?
I know it's lacking in important areas but it's something.
12 years is a lot of time to do jack all.
Are you surprised they didn't teach us about specific topics?
Yep.
Oh yeah I had PE too.
PE = Physical Education.
No, I sympathize because it's about as bad in the US.
I'm a little aggravated that they don't teach history well, but I wasn't into history until some 10 years after high school.
What do you think would be better subjects to teach (outside of the obvious like finances, economics (still a bit annoyed that my school didn't offer that one), philosophy)?
I think they actually tried to do a very short course (basically a lacklustre effort to make it look like they cared) about finances.
logic and critical thinking would be good.
I barely rememeber that.
Yep.
I never got taught anything about that.
They often try to bury logic into geometry out here via proofs but I heard they stopped that.
I don't think we ever got taught proofs.
I found proofs irritating because it wasn't explained how they work or correlate with the things I knew you do in math.
I wish I knew more places I could learn logic from (programming introduced me to some of the concepts of logic for the most part, Marcus is good for that too) as well as critical thinking.
Ha, they stopped at the women's suffrage movement because once women get the right to vote, your civilization is in the decline and it's just a matter of time.
Huh, I actually don't remember getting taught anything from history after that period (granted I transferred to a school that didn't offer history after a while so it might have affected things).
I liked my history teacher, I got taught by a guy.
He was quite passionate and a cool guy.
You know what I've never understood
The US released a list of all occupations based on % by gender.
What did you Americans get taught in school?
You don't understand that?
We get taught a lot of American history.
Which we usually don't pay attention to because it's all fiction.
Oh yeah I rememebr getting taught about the Magna Cart, Elizabeth the First.
What do you mean it's fiction?
I know history is determined by the victor.
But I'd have thought they taught at least standard stuff.
99.4% of roofers are male. 97.7% of Kindergarten teachers are female.
It's pretty plain to see how much harder men have it. lmao.
Gender Studies teachers*
Let's be honest and call them what they are.
Glorified gender studies dropouts.
if you look at the whole list, its undeniable. no feminist could look at that list and argue for female privilege.
You give feminists too much credit.
