Several things:

- In my (admittedly limited) experience with K-12 education a few years ago, males have always been more intelligent than their female counterparts. Before anyone jumps on me, I'm going to quantify what I mean by intelligence - the most successful males had higher average grades than the most successful females. There were significantly more males than females with 4.0 GPAs. About a dozen males (out of a class of 100) were widely recognized as being remarkably smarter than everyone else, routinely winning physics, math, and computer engineering competitions, always being able to solve the hardest homework problems on their own, being able to derive/prove theorems and properties as they needed them, without consulting textbooks, teachers, or other students. No females fell into this category. While females were generally recognized as harder workers, they were not as 'smart.'

- Not once in my undergraduate study have I seen a single instance of blatant anti-male sentiments.

- All of the females I know think that viewpoints such as "Men are evil oppressors" are utter bullshit, and will be more than happy to tell you why they think so in very colorful language.
