I'm all about continuing to talk about this but what "what" should I try to explain?
ETA: looking back, I think you may mean the guy and girl differences. At the high school level generally, and at the college level where I've see statistics reported, girls and women have higher average GPAs than boys and men do.
(I have no idea what this means for the transgendered.) There's getting to be a little push-back to schools being worried about gender equity for females by people who trot out these stats and suggest that maybe our current education methods are bad for boys. In my experience, girls are more interested in pleasing other people (probably because they are socially conditioned to), and I think grade differences are a reflection of this effort to please the teacher and their parents, and boys are probably learning about the same amount of stuff but don't care that much about the details that would lead to higher grades.
