The anti-intellectualism that is America is pretty annoying ! And then there are those self-professed "I am bad in math". I understand each of us is a unique being and we have our own unique aptitude but it can become self-perpetuating. Disclaimer ~ I am not much of a math person myself, I don't like numbers . I find this curious, this self-imposed limitation, cause it goes against the very grain of the hallmark of the American optimism. The very same people who believe that with hard work and discipline, you can accomplish much in life.
