- All girls feel more comfortable and confident to answer questions because guys won't make fun of them
- Gives girls no pressure if there are no guys (even the shy ones)
- If girls learned better in an all girls environment they then would be more comfortable when put into situations with men
- Single-sex schools should also be public rather than only private because some less fortunate families cannot pay the price of private schools
- Stereotyping of genders are toned down, everyone is free to speaking their mind
- The way the teacher teaches the class would benefit each gender, how the class is organized
- Putting developing teenagers into same-sex schools will give them confidence to interact with their own gender before the other gender (i.e. such as making same-sex friends and then starting a relationship with someone)
Against (Hanson)
- School is supposed to prepare you for real life, and in real life you are not only going to be secluded to your own gender group
- Competition makes people work harder, which in turn, benefits them
- Shouldn't matter what gender people are learning with, also it could be discriminating to only be with one gender
- Same-sex students may not know how to interact with the other gender later on in life in some situations
- There is more competition in gym classes if they are co-ed (people want to impress each other)
- All guy classrooms could be rowdier than if they were co-ed classes
- Less talking, act smarter, want to impress the opposite sex
