In my travels throughout the schools of Kitimat I've noticed a mega bizarre skewing of gender numbers. Traditionally you're supposed to see 1.05 boys to girls for the 15 year olds and under so I have been boggled/flabbergasted/flummoxed to note that in Kitimat in the middle grades especially we have a most unexpected mix....try 60 to 80% male. It's extreme enough that I'm going to bug all the school secretaries to give me the break down on gender through all classes. If it's as consistent as it's looked as I've loosely inventoried via Art workshops I just might be bold enough to contact various school districts throughout BC.
It's like living in a sci-fi dystopia...and not in a good way ; )
