You added that after I replied.
To be honest your entire tone here is an example of really unproductive online conversation, I don't have any interest in participating in it.

It’s not appropriate or kind to expect people to read your mind on an online forum.

I didn't. I gave a concrete example of the phenomenon I was already talking about. If he wants to give concrete examples of what he's talking about, he's more than welcome to do the same, but he can't, because it's a lie.
The conversation would have ended up the same way had I seen his reply before editing the example in - I'd just have given it afterwards, and he'd still have no answer.

Of course you don't.
Fascinating. This is exactly the sort of half-baked lie I was talking about.
Edit: At some point, rubber has to meet road. Either you accept that boys falling behind in education is an issue, or you don't. If you don't accept it as an issue, then you cannot simultaneously claim to be the ones solving it.
Some of those solutions are not easy. It's been known for decades that boys get lower grades in school, and not always for the quality of their work. In the UK we saw girls suddenly shoot past boys in maths results when exams were cancelled for COVID and teacher-assessed grades were given instead. What's the feminist solution for that?
