> there is not much leftover to help boys do anything.
As someone that competed in FRC for all of high school, I don't understand how an informed person could come to this conclusion unless they are trolling. STEM classes and extracurriculars are veritable boys clubs - go look up the team composites for your school's local robotics club and count the ratio yourself. It's a blowout, and while marketing STEM to young women can end up ham-fisted (as it so often is for young men), motivating girls isn't taking any opportunities away from boys.
You are either misinformed or arguing in bad faith. Boys that want to participate in STEM aren't any more impeded today than they were prior.
