Should it follow that people with celiac disease be taught science differently? I mean, they are biologically different, are they not?

If the biological difference affects the way you learn then yes. But an equivalent biology would return an equivalent output

And if we assume the way boys are taught is better, then it is audacious that we would teach boys and girls differently since biology is equivalent.

I had assumed that you were being facetious with your argument and you were actually arguing the opposite of what you posted (which I still think you are doing, but on the off chance that you are not...).

There are certainly biological differences between males and females, there are certainly differences in brain organization and structure. But they don't necessarily imply anything about science aptitude/training. Which is the point I was trying to get at with celiac disease analogy.
