The entire "educational" system is a dumpster fire. It needs to burn out. I'm talking from pre-kindergarden to doctorate degrees here.

We need to face the fact that there's at least 2-3 generations of really fucked up people that will take about 30 years to recover from their education.

boys mature slower than girls physically. this was a big point pushed in the '70s. i remember it was popular with girls in high school. but boys mature faster with emotional intelligence and conceptualization than girls. however that was when the nuclear family and protestantism was the mean.
