There's also the problem of reading disabilities. I bet most anons in this thread don't know that 1 in 5 people in America suffer from dyslexia. Think about that for a minute.

>an average classroom is 30 children: 15 are girls, 15 are boys
>six of these kids have dyslexia and struggle with reading: regardless of IQ, they're fucked
>so we're left with 24 children who are capable of reading, 12 boys and 12 girls
>the average American IQ is 98 which means they are slightly below average and fall under 34% of the population
>of both the boys and girls, 8 have IQs of 98, which is 1/3 of the kids total, and within the sexes that is 2/3 of the groups
>on average, Americans read at an eighth grade level

So of the 12 boys left, only 8 can read decently. Two of them might as well be retarded, and the other two nerds blow the rest of the boys out of the water. When you toss in the dyslexic boys, that's 8/15 boys who can read.

More than half of the male population reads at an eighth grade level.
