My theory is, that while calling it "girl maths" to imply it's bad maths is indeed quite sexist, it kind of get's canceled out because hating and being bad at maths is actually "cool" and "hip" with the young people.
Can someone please send another big Asteroid our way?
That is nothing new, it is called being a teenager. It is part of the human physiological development where we push back against our childhood authority figures in an attempt to define our selfhood.
You (and I and all of us) were as insufferable as teens as the current generation.
This is not limited to teenagers.
True. Most grow out of it but many don't.
Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.
