*If test scores go up great
*But now this gives both sexes less time to be able to communicate with each other, hmmmm that aint right

Wait, I thought men and women were equal in every aspect?

Nope. Never were.

men>women

yeah i kinda noticed men and women weren't equal. especially seeing as how my girlfriend tells me how much i mess up all the time lol
apparently theyre better than us

*Warning*- don't get all misogynistic in this thread. Sexism will be interpreted the same as racism on here.

Bah, my post was sarcastic in nature.


I think its just more of teaching to pass a test at the end of the year, not teaching kids to learn on their own.

So fail.

I know the sarcasm, and I know what you were going for. I'm just trying to steer away from the typical men vs women deal. Both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. I think the gender segregation may be good for learning and test scores but may have some social implications.

Well most catholic schools are single gender, I won't get into the religious nonsense part, but they usually score higher on standardized tests than public schools. Granted that is a far stretch at comparisons.. but still.

if you say so...i prefer the women :nod:

Catholic schools are awful at any type of special ed (many don't even have it) and the higher score thing is hit or miss. I know people who had to repeat a grade because they did not get a good enough education at Catholic school, where they got great grades.

Well there is a very fine line between not stepping on any ones toes but at the same time providing a good education at a public school.

Most schools are damned if they do, damned if they don't when it comes to providing the right classes to the right kids.

+1 on that thinking :usa:

touche'

I'd be curious to see back to back tests. I'm not sure it'd be much different.

O rly? :mrgreen:

Women have a smaller brain than a man, its a proven fact :rofl: From "Anchorman", FYI

Personley i think women are better:rofl: For always helping us men out when we need it.

And i have seen a'lot of abuse of men. So i Vote for women for Helping us and You know the other....:rofl:

Yeah, I heard about this.
While I dont think either side is smarter then the other, we learn in different ways.
Say its a few millenia of evolution that has taught us to be different and learn different.
Not that its good or bad, but I think its a good deal. Sure there will be huge uproar, but its worth a test.

I feel like there will be more fights but maybe less since there will be No girls to fight over
