When it comes to learning a trade boys just do a lot better if it involves actually doing something. I've noticed this with a family member of mine who's recently started working. Before work he was pretty bad in school, just could not concentrate but he's not dumb, just never got used sitting down to learn. He's improved leaps and bounds learning a practical skill.
My father was functionally illiterate, like many ghetto clowns, and was still able to find great success on assemble offshore oil rigs. This despite being barely able to read any of the blueprints or manuals, but simply working off skill and knowledge gained.
A lot of guys would excel in life by being given only a fraction of the schooling we give them now, and simply allowing them to do apprenticeship trade work to learn the rest.
I don't disagree. My father was an extreme that happened to work out. I'd wager that something around just the elementary school years (1-4/5) is still necessary to baseline the populace for survival. Enough time to learn to read, write, do basic math, and get some ability to critical think.
Well yeah, its 35% Black (and much higher than that once you leave South Arkansas areas like Shreveport). So once you factor in the extreme poverty whites and Indians, like 1 in 3 people never bothered to learn.
Absolutely. If anything, the boys that learn really well from sitting down and studying end up being on the fucking spectrum because they are already pre-disposed from physically doing a lot of things, and even then, they still require physical stimuli.
I don't even believe that.
Honestly, I think girls absolutely do better in a very structured, quiet, and directed learning environment.
Teaching boys to sit still is the first lesson.
Hence, why the system inevitably favors girls.

Idk I believe in literacy at a minimum.

Eh most of Louisiana is illiterate based on my interactions with them

"Ghetto Clowns on the Oil Rig" sounds like an amazing adventure novel.
No, it's absolutely just bias. You can see it from how women's attainment drops when things are graded by outsiders.
