[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College is still great place to meet and date. All 3 kids dated seriously and had long term relationships in college (2 sons and 1 daughter). 3 different schools, all private and coed  t10/t20. We considered Wellesley and Barnard. When we toured, it felt Heavy with activist lesbians and a mix kids from traditional/conservative international families which is a funny mix. Not the right fit for my daughter. I loved the idea, but i think women's colleges need to redefine themselves. With all the gender identity stuff, womens colleges now welcome those who 'iidentify as women'. Imo, the women's rights movement has been displaced by lgbtq+, and the mission/rationale for women's colleges is hard to understand and feels a but obsolete.

This is an interesting point about the mission of women’s colleges.

I do agree that in all female environment the gender identity message has taken over.  Creates a division rather than allowing bonding over the common challenges women continue to face in society.
