Fight-or-Flight Math

When it is humanly understandable to give up instead of persevering when faced with a false start or failure in solving a math problem—when the pain-and-gain mindset is often missing among struggling or frustrated students, who mistakenly thought that only those blessed or born with the “mathematical gene” could do math.

Fight-or-flight math makes it hard for us to think clearly, logically, and reflexively. Let not negative emotions take control of our reactions.

Girl Math

A phrase that can be used to describe a way of thinking that once thought about is factually illogical or irrational.

"But if video-games are supposed to be an escape from reality, why would you want to make it more realistic?"

"You're missing the point, it's to make the game more fun!"

"No! You're speaking some 'girl math' right now!"
