I have noticed the lack of reading skills in boys in schools at southindia.But still boys catch up with girls as they grow and succeed.The results of the public board exams of tenth and +two standards of schools at tamilnadu are documents apparently giving the above impressions.

I agree — the boys seem to catch up sooner or later so they often end up with the best jobs(!) … but their lack of reading skills at an earlier age is apparently well-documented — at least in the UK

This is quite interesting finding and even more interesting is about the Project X!!! The outcome of the study seems to have really deep effect leading to the boy-friendly publication of the book supposing that it will make them smart enough to be equivalent to their counterpart girls.
It has been long time that people are talking about gender bias primarily focusing to the rights of women worldwide. Here,now, seems the seesaw being tilted other way round!!! It will be interesting debate in coming years if it is really profound!!!
Best wishes,
