Actually, in Benovo (may not be spelled correctly) Monkeys, the female monkeys dominate the group. I don.t know why?

Well we are mostly capitalistic but too many people do not understand that you get ahead with hard work not with govt taking care of you.

Where do you come up with this?

My county (Montgomery County, MD), and the HS my kids went to (Churchill HS, which consistently ranked in the top 3 in the State) spends about 1/2 per student than Baltimore County. They spend about 1/3 of what DC spends per student, with us paying SIGNIFICANTLY higher property taxes.

No idea what this has to do with the discussion, but sure, why not...

I guess you're unaware of the kids being robbed (and even killed) over their expensive sneakers and jackets in the poorer PUBLIC schools...

You see, first you insult someone for disagreeing with you. Then you post something which has little to no scientific evidence to support it. You based your entire post on the idea that LGBTQ "decide" they are not CIS. Some do. Most don't. So, maybe it is you who should educate yourself.

Because they're closer to humans? Happy wife (monkey) happy life?

If a transgender man (someone born with the body parts of a woman, but lives as a man) wanted to compete against men, would you be okay with that? If they had their breasts removed, are taking testosterone to make sure their levels are the same as the biological male counterparts, have facial hair, and no uterus or fallopian tubes?

Yours is one, I might say it is THE exception however I am sure there are other examples of "good school systems".

MOST are not efficient. Most have overpaid administration structures. And most have very poor outcomes despite all the money being spent.

More gibberish……

Ummm... Methinks that you're actually AGREEING with what RayMan said...

I suggest you go back and CAREFULLY re-read his post...

Bonobo, Google is your friend.

Sure. Make this remark and ignore the context the question was asked. This entire post is very political.

I never said our system is efficient. They waste money with the best of them. They SHOULD be paying their teachers more, as well.

It's just that they don't waste money on the epic scale that other places do...

If spending more money was the answer, those areas spending 3 X's as much should have much better results, right?

Oh, and much of their success comes from parental involvement...

I remember one "Back to School Night". A new teacher walked into his "standing room only classroom, thinking many of us were in the wrong room. When he was assured we were all in the right place, he commented that he had never had that many people over the entire night as he did in his first period class...

Point made, I agree. I also say, the same could be said for Intersex people and others.

Whaat about Trisomy women, women with three Chromosomes? There are around 0.1% in the general population - that would be about 150,000 in the general population. Hmm. wonder what they are, since I have been told in this forum under no uncertain terms, that men have 2 and women have two. So, those 150,000 "people" (maybe not people?) are something else?

There is another case called Triploidy with 3 sets of Chromosomes which affects arounds 2% of all pregnancies but it is almost always fatal - the baby/fetus seldom survives. What do we put on their death/birth certificates? Male, female? I guess those fetuses just DECIDED to have 3...

It seems so easy to define "woman" today.

If a man works his tail off to get an athletic scholarship and along comes a woman who "decides to be a male" and gets his scholarship and beats the snot out of the first man because the transgender man turned out to be just flat out better at the sport than the non-trans man, does that make the non-trans man a wuss? Or does it just make the one who transed better at the sport?

Sorry, I should have been clearer and said your school was "more efficient" . :)

I completely agree, parental involvement is a major factor in school success. Of course that will open the door to what the parents should be involved in, but that is another debate.

Let's just agree that the more a child's parents are involved in their education and "up bringing" (there an oldie phrase) the better the odds are for a positive outcome for the child. If only everyone could be more involved, I wonder what they isn't the case?
