This is what I expected. A gay kid ...Thanks, Ron.<br /><br />This is what I expected. A gay kid in high school has a lot to think about other than grades. He is still different, still knows he is different, and like the average young person, surely isn't happy about being different. <br /><br />Grades in most high schools these days are more an indicator of things like handing in classwork and homework than they are measure of performance on things like tests. Teachers in English are especially subjective.<br /><br />Thus, can you find a test of some sort that measure verbal skills?<br /><br />To Underachiever--<br /><br />Some bright gay kids get really involved in activities like student government. It seems to act as a surrogate for dating and an alternative to other activities like sports. These kids are visible, perhaps giving a false impression of the average gay kid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26188478.post-54832696722222843942011-02-25T20:06:34.875-08:002011-02-25T20:06:34.875-08:00DR,

My guess is that the lower average is coming from a smaller right tail of academic super achievers. A lot of males who are intelligent, but socially ackward try really hard in school because they no it's their route to getting a decent woman. Gay guys don't have to worry about this.DRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395057401348319239noreply@blogger.com
