Yeah, I didn't like this article. It's overly harsh and doesn't take into account other situations. I have dyscalculia, the math version of dyslexia. People generally don't say "I can't do English" if they have dyslexia, but they can say, "I can't spell" which I wonder would be assessed as harshly by the author as this article.
Also, it was pointed out that what math is can be fuzzy - I always thought I was BAD at math, when I was young and it was still adding numbers together and stuff, which I only can do with great difficulty. Once I got into algebra, I was already devising my own ways to solve equations and acing the class (although they told me to stop solving the equations in my own way...)
