My expectations for my children are the same, of course. Where do you get the idea that expectations for boys are lower?

The education gap between girls and boys is complex. Some boys are doing fine. But boys tend to have poorer communication and listening skills from the youngest age, so boys who struggle really struggle. Our education system doesn't really doesn't know what to do with boys with ADHD and other behavioural disorders. So boys are drugged at a rate 4 times that of girls. It would be a scandal if the genders were reversed - whoops, that's something only a filthy MRA would say.

We're derailing the thread, so feel free to start a new one if you want to discuss further.
Your sarcasm was obvious to me. Actually surprised that you had to explain.
