You wrote “equality of schooling between genders”. I wrote a separate reply under your thread explaining it’s far from equal.

No you posted an anecdote that is tangential at best...

Boys and girls learn to read, write, count, etc in the same way.

The original poster expected girls/women to be uneducated/under-educated. This is an aspect that may hold true in countries like Afghanistan or some Africa countries but not in North Korea, which has a totally different culture and level of development.
