Many studies show that guys 'usually' do better at science, and maths while girls do better at reading, writing, arts, and literature for the most part.

It was like that with me and my sister. She was horrible at math and physics, while I was not so hot at language(English), and French. I was older so my sister had her own tutor. Not that we didn't do well in those studies we just were not interested in them so we didn't do has well as we could.

Lets look at the engineering field, even though equal opportunity exist and they actually try to push girls now to do computer science, and engineering, the classrooms still mostly composed of guys. It isn't that girls can not do well, it is just they are not usually interested in equations and theory behind how the world works.
