Are girls smarter than boys? It seems they think so.A study out of England reports that from the age of 4, girls believe they are smarter, better behaved and more hard-working than boys.

And by the time boys reached the age of 8, they agreed with the girls' perceptions that they were better at all these things.

Both boys and girls said that they thought that grown-ups believed that girls did better than boys at school.

Is this surprising to you? Especially the fact that boys actually agree with the idea that girls are smarter?

This research definitely demonstrates how important our words are- especially gendered language, such as "boys will be boys" and "girls rule, boys drool".
