I could probably find a citation for boys being less suited to auditory learning

..

Secondly, the advantage, while substantial in impact on boys, is relatively slight. Relatively

It's a headline, it needs to get attention

Otherwise people won't click

it works out to boys being somewhere between 0.22 of a standard deviation behind, but that's over a large period of time, it might be smaller or larger if I were to try to find results for just the last decade

"what can we do about it" is a call to action and it works psychologicallly

I like that, and I also don't have a problem with answering "well, its complicated"

and then going into the details

thanks, I'll do that

That's a question I can ask. I'll use it to fix the double-question.

..

As for the title, that is harder

Right now my heading is simply "An Issue of Education", which on a site called menarehuman should be descriptive enough

But it might not be the best

In general practice, it's better to be more descriptive

Yeah, but how does one be more descriptive on what is effectively a rather broad research paper?

..

For the two of you, do you have any comments for the end of the article?

I could use a second opinion on that even before the middle stuff is dealt with.

I mean, anyway our sons being at disadvantage is the gist of the paper, right

I suppose I don't think so

The point, I think, is that they aren't fully supported (and are suffering as a result).

Although relative disadvantage is pretty useful when demonstrating that there is a problem, it is difficult when it comes to making the issue matter. Because relative disadvantage doesn't really matter by itself

But at the same time

I don't really have numbers, data on the real impact on boys for any of this.

So perhaps simply being at a disadvantage is all I can make a direct point

Relative disadvantage would had mattered a lot if it was girls that were disadvantaged

Yes, yes it would

We can call it a disadvantage then

Sure

Sorry, I was thinking aloud, the gist of the paper probably ultimately is boys being at a disadvantage

I'm just slightly dissatisfied with stopping there

but also want to keep very grounded in evidence

@asparkofpyrokravte I bet it seems like it's getting ridiculously long to 'get it right'... But it's worth it mate

I'm sorry to have told you that it seems wrong. But you need to know

Buddy, I'm literally asking for it

Doesn't make me not feel bad about it lol. It's like, you know its wrong but dont wanna offend someone who's obviously trying hard!!

Your effort is so worthwhile, I can't really write it for you and please keep on :3

I have finished reading the article

The ending is very good
