My mother taught me how to read, I'm male. Incidentally, I scored higher than my peers in reading.
replyI still read, but it has taken the form of social media which have no more length than a blurb.
It's not a hard and fast rule, for sure. But we have heard from many boy parents who wish their boys read more (or much at all). We, OTOH, have to tell our girls to put their books down and do something else from time to time.
