-neologism -->"gender gap inversion" |

Line 1:
A '''gender gap''' is a disparity between genders involving quality or quantity. A gender gap favoring the male sex is called a ''pro-male gender gap'', while the opposite is called a ''pro-female gender gap''. Many people, however, are offended by gender gaps that favor the opposite sex. Men are believed to be better some things, and women are believed to be better in other things.
While some of the qualities that characterize gender gaps may be biological, it can be argued that some of these qualities have a founding in sociological treatment of the genders, such as gender norms, and gender roles, and thus these gaps are not somehow "established facts". This is particularly evident in the "gap" that "Female students are believed to be better in literature", however, in older times, a lot of quality literature was produced by men, and was the exclusive domain of men.
