not good at math? (Outliers/Gadwell)

It's acceptable in this country to say "I'm just not good at math". It's not acceptable to say "I'm just not good at reading". It shouldn't be acceptable to say either. I have a natural gift for math, so maybe I'm biased. You shouldn't be math illiterate though.
