[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The advantage was there but not so much now  at many competitive schools.[/quote]

Most competitive schools would really like to see gender parity in cs and engineering. So girls do have an advantage since even today there are still far more boys interested in those two majors.   [/quote]

I find it somewhat depressing that 60% of college students are female, most of the majors are majority female and all everyone talks about is how terrible it is that more males go into CS and Engineering and how we should “fix” it.  [/quote]

No one stopped males from going to college. I don't know why more females going to college is depressing. [/quote]

It is depressing as the dating pool is getting smaller and smaller for these females that are str8 or bi with intention of hetero marriage,  in our suburbs as im sure in yours [b]being an Ivy educated mom turned part time pilates instructor married to a guy making over 500K is still the ultimate success story-lets be for real.[/b]

so our daughters chances of this are smaller and smaller--they will most likely marry guys at or below their own salary potential, some even talk of women marrying migrant workers as that ratio is 90/10 men....as this is a stem post lets do talk about the math[/quote]
As someone with an Ivy education (and a PhD), this would only be said by someone who doesn't actually hold a degree from an Ivy, a graduate degree, or a top-notch education. In these circles, not having a substantive job of some sort (it can be a volunteer position, but widely understood as meaningful) especially as one's children are older is, well, not ideal. We are polite about it and don't say anything, but we all assume either debilitating mental illness or self-centered. An elite education is a privilege, and you are meant to give back to society.[/quote]
