Ah, but you see, there is one thing that logic, math and common sense cannot defeat.  And, that is a national narrative by this particular group of 'higher thinking' people.  They have their agenda and the former conditions don't apply.  They know what they want, and until they get it, they won't quit.  So, your son can be brilliant, but until the sisterhood gets what they want, which is control, too bad for him. Of course, Sunny Dazes, our PM, being a feminist will just calmly sit back, because it doesn't affect him.
