I think this becomes relevant to this issue as if you train a generation of low achieving males and high achieving females I think you make gender issues worse.
Both genders deserve to be expected highly of, offered the best education, given the best opportunities in sports, education and life in general and overall quality of life.

I want children to be able to exceed limits and achieve what ever they can achieve.
