(57,714 posts)You obviously haven't taken the test yourself. How else could you concoct a story that the SAT tests what students have learned?
Suddenly the only academic research you care about is to support male supremacist arguments. There are hundreds of articles on the subject of bias in aptitude tests and the SAT in particular. http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=gender+bias+sat&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C24&as_sdtp=
You must have worked hard to avoid reading about gender and race bias in standardized testing. I expect you have read about but decided you would ignore it since it doesn't fit your narrative of how downtrodden and oppressed white men are.
If males are so much smarter than females, why do you whine constantly about how boys are falling behind in school? What is the point of your proposing a council for boy's? (Add to that the proposal for a department of men's health, when you have to know the vast majority of medical research is done on men's health.) http://www.democraticunderground.com/111413758
To further institutionalize discrimination? Your proposal to move the Democratic Party to the right of the GOP is not only ridiculous, it would be an unconstitutional violation of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Democratic Party is not going to implement official discriminatory practices because a few MRA types don't like to compete on an even playing field. The idea that the Dem Party would forgo their base and develop policies willfully hostile to women and Hispanics in order to cater to a few white men, a demographic in decline, is ridiculous. That politically suicidal strategy belongs to the GOP, while your proposals to reinstate legal discrimination against women is something even the GOP wouldn't propose, save for a few lunatics even too extreme for the Tea Party, like the one who recently lamented women having the right to vote.
I knew you'd ignore the evidence. That is what you always do when something doesn't fit your distorted worldview of how oppressed men are.
