Well duh, because when boys are learning math and express unreasonable anxiety, they're told to stop whining and study harder instead of being coddled.
Thanks for the link. But why not post the primary source material, or perhaps even the study itself? This article adds no specific commentary and is mostly just a 1:1 regurgitation.
Either way, very interesting...

People tend to major in a field they like and have some talent for. Gender doesn't count these days.

It didn't necessarily have to be STEM field. Just something more useful than liberal arts or feminist studies.
So virtually anything.

I thought this issue was resolved a long time ago. I feel that the Norwegian TV show "Hjernevask" dealt with this pretty conclusively.
