:: You're ducking the obvious point here. Think girls can excel in math as well as boys can? Liberals teach they can, which is teaching a falsehood.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:00, 10 August 2008 (EDT)

:::Your claim is based on the fact that since statistical averages indicate that on the whole, boys perform in math better than girls, that tenet holds for the individuals. This is the Part-whole fallacy: it is akin to saying "The clock is big, therefore the clock's parts are big". By this logic, it is impossible to climb Mt. Everest, because statistically, most people don't.
:::Can girls excel? Of course they can... There have been women who have succeeded in every major field of science. Research shows that men typically have higher scores in Math and Science, while women do better in English and Social Studies, but just as there have many famous male writers and historians, there are dozens if not hundreds of female mathematicians and scientists who have made lasting contributions to the field.
