History. Let’s just say theres a reason its called history and not the truth. By dissecting its parts we realize that the word itself conveys its meaning. History is, his story. Taking into consideration that“his” is not always a male but the one thing that stays constant is that his story is never exactly the same as her story or the other guys story and most importantly not, your story.

Saying one side is less prevalent than the other is contradicting because there will always be a natural obligation among humans that is centered around the need for being the best.

That is the easiest way for a teacher for they do not have to adjust the curriculum. However, this approach does not benefit the students entirely.
