The cause of male underperformance in schools,in my opinion, is the female norm of discriminating against male students in the grading process. Female teachers will discriminate against male students, both overtly and covertly, based upon gender feminist motives (with governmental support). The same, of course, occurs in the work place and otherwise. Increasingly, male instructors have been "bullied" out of the classroom based upon these same "gender feminist" motives (with governmental support). Further, as I remember it, the performance of males in the class room improves significantly, if the instructor is a male. As a result,males should avoid female instructors and send their male children to private schools that have only male instructors. Males have, on average, significantly larger brains, on average, than females (even the ancient Greeks knew this). I believe that the differences in intelligence, creativity, and brain size between males and females can be expalined in Darwinian terms. Males had to compete with other males for females, defend themselves,their social group, and their families, and provide for the same while females did not. The same necessitated the significantly greater,on average, brain size,intelligence, and intellectual creativity in males.

Yes, the vast majority of my subjects are non-verbal mutterings.
"As a result, what we can expect for the future of Britain is this: a society dominated by a male elite above a cadre of diligent and bright but not superbright women, with a bottom layer, an underclass, of considerably more stupid men. "
That seems rather depressing, any which way you look at it [even if you're a male elite].
Anyway, it doesn't bother me if the vast majority of students at Elite University, the top Mensa members, etc, are men. what would bother me is saying 'you can't be in here, not being a man' one can be female and have an IQ above 170, even if there are fourteen men for every one female. And forcing there to be equal numbers would also bother me, it'd prove nothing.
also, how does saying "males are naturally smarter" really help the situation of men being overlooked ["I'll pretend that boy isn't raising his hand"], underfunded [scholarships for women, not for men], and unmotivated [why bother finishing high school]? All it rather says is the brightest will stay in school, while leaving the 'considerably stupid men' behind... I don't know, I don't want to just say "well, obviously they aren't one of the superbright men, don't worry about 'em."

It's a mixed blessing. And it's highly risky. And, in my opinion, it does not denote favoritism toward males by Nature. Many could argue that Nature is showing favoritism to her daughters by ensuring that they get "safe", if average, genes. But, that's largely a matter of opinion.
Truthfully, I'm more appreciative of whatever undiscovered system Nature employs to ensure that the majority of men, apparently, get "average" genes. Keep in mind - the Picassos and the Einsteins of the world got some very good genetic firecrackers, but they largely got them haphazardly. Frankly, I'm more disturbed by that haphazardness than I am consoled by the possible rewards of it.
Further, it's hypocritical of us to cheer and applause this "evidence" of male superiority, and then jeer and deride the "evidence" of female superiority that also regularly saturates the news stories posted here.

No, it is not hypocritical. Boys have lost their self-esteem and their self-confidence because they are told permanently that girls are smarter and genetically superior......
So it's high time we boosted their self-esteem by reminding them that every great achievement in human intellectual history was carried out by men.
And this Times article doesn't pretend that men are smarter than women, but that the smartest human beings are male. But on average, it says that men's and women's IQs are equal.
