<p>Funny. In my district (where the public schools were all coed but most of the Catholic high schools were gender-segregated), the girls at girls’ schools, based on my observations of students from both, received a vastly inferior math and science education to the boys at boys’ schools and the students at coed schools.</p>
<p>I do think that school systems should provide a range of choices, and if some folks want to opt in to a single-gender school/program, I’m okay with that.</p>
<p>But I would have hated, hated, hated the idea of being in one of those schools myself. I would have hated it on principle. I would have hated it in practice (I tended not to get along well with groups of girls). I would have hated the notion that because I’m a girl I automatically learn in a different style than the boys.</p>
<p>Also, I second corranged’s comment. LGBT youth have a hard enough time as it is.</p>
