Girls and Boys Should Attend Different Schools

Therefore this leads to an unfair debate unless we include every type school since the resolution doesn"t specify. It doesn"t make sense to specify the resolution when the resolution was made general. I however do agree to make it about the present. Also there is no reason to limit it just to high schools for the reason you stated which was just "this is the situation now". And we also can not leave out selective schools just because they are made up of chosen children, because sex still plays a part. If someone only selected men to attend their school and they happen to be worse than a same sex selective school, then there could be a link with sex and selective schools aren"t considered the best. My opponent"s first argument is that boys and girls have different learning styles which is not backed up with a cut piece of evidence but instead is backed up with a website sources which is also unfair because someone could basically paste and website and make the opponent read all through it. This is comparable to me saying something about same sex schools, and then posting websites with ridiculous length in order to make my opponent try to find it. So in the next round my opponent shall have to provide a cut evidence. Now, but let"s say this is true, in real life there will be situations in which people have to adapt. Isn"t that the purpose of school? School is designed to make you adapt to adult life in the real world and help you make a living. But if we start doing what my opponent proposes which is to cater to every weakness someone has, we aren"t helping them adapt to different situations which is neglecting the purpose of school. When someone is having a hard time in learning a subject, we don"t just give them an A, the teachers try to help them adapt to the subject. Therefore in double sex schools people will learn to work on their weaknesses and work on flexibility. Next my opponent provides a proposal which states that if we put people in single sex schools, we can add a few extra minutes to each one"s subject and therefore equal the ground of knowledge with the other sex. But the problem with this, is that it"s singling out a subject that not necessarily everyone of the sex are worse than boys are at. Plus the study is also assuming that the same effort is being put in from both sides, but if they aren"t and some minutes get added, it most likely that they still wouldn"t put effort in. And what about the girls that are better than boys at math? They are going to be wasting their time. It"s evident that the study is impossible to make this conclusion considering they can"t read minds and therefore not tell how much effort was put in. Plus school is suppose to even the subjects out because it would be unfair to pick out a subject and say that subject should hold priority over the others, because obviously the students have different subject priorities, and schools are suppose to prepare them for the college study they want to get into. It"s illogical to add minutes to a class because a bad study shows that girls tend to more in a subject. Also just because girls are better than boys at a subject doesn"t mean that boys are necessarily lacking skill, but that girls are just better. There"s no reason why it would need to be equal, therefore why not increase minutes in all subjects? My last rebuttal is to the point that single sex schools have less distractions due to the other sex not being there. This would be right under these circumstances, there were not any gay people, only different sexes can be friends, people only like to impress with dumb things, and that people only like to impress the opposite sex. My opponent tries to exclude gay people out of the equation, when there are gays in single sex schools which to the same things pro provides above. Also people who are friends do dumb things like this all the time because they want to impress them, and even people who aren"t their friends. What my opponent is essentially saying is that there can only be distractions if two different sexes are in the class. In fact people may be more inclined to do dumb things in single sex schools since they would do dumber things to make their friends laugh rather than try to act smart which is what most people like nowadays. Therefore in double sex schools, people will try to less to embarrass themselves than as if they were just hanging out with their friends because they are trying to make the other sex like them. Diversity There are undoubtedly certain attributes to one sex that"s more prominently seen than in the other, and to add more attributes to the everyday life will make the both sexes knowledgeable. For example women tend to be more nurturing towards children, men could learn things from them and women can learn things from men. Plus if we are trying to live, we need to have kids, therefore it would better if people were used to women, thus better at talking to them.
