I ever . I ever I strongly believe that there is no two opinions on this account. Generation after generation we grow up disliking and misunderstanding math and not feeling the worse for it. Still, lest these pages be mistaken for a pioneering effort, I wish to give credit to those who raised the issue on other occasions.
People also stereotype themselves in order to avoid math.
Women who roll their eyes at the mention of math may be unconsciously taking refuge in the dumb blond stereotype. I was never any good at math. It may as well be Barbie speaking. They may laugh if you called them innumerate but would become incensed if you ever called them illiterate. Math class is tough.
