[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think the issue is that women's colleges have become become a bit obsolete for heterosexual women. We initially considered Women's colleges for dd. But after touring learned that womens colleges today admit a lot of nonbinary/lesbian students and even biological males that identify as female. Language in the women's colleges seem to avoid any gendered language due to this complexity. For me, it's odd. [b]When I was in college, my friends at women's schools talked about strong sisterhood and female empowerment. Its not like that anymore.[/b] I think schools like barnard still appeal because of proximity to nyc, male students across the street, broader university course offerings, and easier to get into vs Columbia college. [/quote] Don't listen to haters who have no idea what women's colleges are all about. The bolded statement is just wrong. My D is at a women's college, and the girls really look out for one another. I don't think they use the word "sisterhood" these days but the ties are very strong. I could give you a million examples but just know that this poster has no idea what they are talking about!
