Today, in my first period shop class, a boy asked me out.

He, then, proceeded to look over my work for class and said that I was pretty good..."for a girl." I rolled my eyes and without a word continued o my work.

Why are boys so dumb? At least, my teacher has the common sense to say that I have done some of the best work he's ever seen. Not "best work for a girl," but best work. Period. I feel that this kind of work will warrant many comments like that and I wish it wasn't this way. However, I'm ready to prove everyone of what I am capable of.

	Nothing wrong with that. Maybe they should look at you knowing more as an incentive to learn more themselves rather than be embarrassed over it. Which might not be a bad thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tell them that... I agree. I have been taught to not lower my standards. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wish I could...Believe me I wish I could tell people to use situations like that as incentive to learn more. No one should lower the standards they hold themselves to for anyone. Or the standards they have for people to treat them as an equal. (Reply to this) (Parent)
