Why is it socially acceptable to be bad at math?

Asked by Mariah (25883points) May 9th, 2012

People have no problem saying they’re terrible at math, but I’ll bet these same people would be embarrassed to admit it if they were illiterate or if they couldn’t find Canada on a map. Why are we as a culture so forgiving of math inadequacy?
