I heard about
this or a similar study. It basically says that girls don't perform as well when they're told that boys are better. I wonder if there might be a corollary of boys performing worse when told girls are better, or if a fluke of our society makes one sex more or less resistant to such self-defeating thoughts.

Says the
study: Boy monkeys prefer trucks; girl monkeys prefer dolls.
