[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My only concern with Haveford for my son is the female/male split. Because students at Bryn Mawr and Haverford cross-register significantly (as the campuses are nearby each other), the gender split can feel more like 75/25 or 80/20 female in some departments.[/quote] You are worried that your son is surrounded by too many women?[/quote] Yes, social psych research has shown that when men are significantly outnumbered by women in a dating environment, they are less likely to form stable relationships, and more likely to take on a "player" personality because it's so easy to hook up. For women, if you have 3-4 straight women pursuing each 1 straight guy, it's so competitive, the women are more aggressive in pursuing the few eligible men, and lower their standards to expect much less of the men. I'd prefer he not develop skewed ethics/values about women and relationships from age 18-22 if avoidable.[/quote]
