Education: Girls Go Ahead

Girls differ from boys starting from the secondary school. Although some stats show boys are somehow more successful in maths, physics, chemistry and scientific research the data significantly changes for further years of education when schoolchildren grow up. In the earlier days of girls’ inclusion in education system boys were inevitably better scored at exams. But this dominance was caused by social problems rather than girls’ intellectual abilities. The society was not ready to accept educated females who were intending to use their knowledge and get high positions in business world and financial independence in society. Thus, girls were highly depressed and there were even introduced girls-separated classes. However, their willingness to learn won, and girls were introduced to the single-males classes. Immediately girls had to put more efforts to survive in education world and became studying better than boys who were quite sure in their dominant position.

The centuries of oppression hardened females’ attitudes and behaviour to fight for their rights. However, women have still to show much better results in education to get the equal position with men’s.

Another social reason of boys being weaker at education performance is social family patterns which preserve male dominance at homes even after sexual and feminist revolutions in society. Boys are watching their fathers’ dominant positions at homes even if the fathers are not so successful in their careers and jobs. The fathers do not have to struggle for their dominance because this dominance is predicted by the society.

Another reason of the girls’ better performance of study relies on males-females psychological differences. While male nature mostly focuses on the present and prefers to enjoy what he is watching and feeling now, females prefer to see in the future and think about career jobs’ strategic planning.

The females’ preference to see the future helps them obtain higher position in long-term research, large projects study and reading. Higher rank in reading demonstrates another feature of girls nature which is called ‘versatility’. They are genetically prepared to different types of work in the future – from cooking to making career. Thus, reading attracts girls as it broadens their knowledge and heightens their intellectual abilities in thinking, analyzing and strategic planning. Males nature is more one-sided and they are most likely to prepare themselves for one job and one career making in one industry and even at the same company for their whole future life.
