[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Larla: It's not fair that I need better grades and ECs than boys to be admitted to the same schools. Also Larla: I refuse to attend any school that's not at least 45% male. Sorry, Larla.[/quote] Said literally no woman ever. We’re keeping the male population up at these schools because parents are obsessive about their boys having boy friends: read the 100s of posts here about their DS “fitting in” at any college that isn’t 50% male.[/quote] This happens in k-8s, even. My child’s prek-8 couldn’t care less if there weren’t enough girls in a class. But if there was murmuring from parents about a cohort having “not enough boys” (which really meant sporty, cool boys- the elementary equivalent of colleges wanting plenty of basic male heterosexuals), the school would bend over backwards trying to address those concerns and admit more boys in entry years and retain boys in normal years.[/quote]
