He is a professor at Boise State. It isn’t like he has influence.

I wonder about this also. If women don't want to go into engineering why make such an effort to recruit them?

Medicine and law are different of course, women don't need to be recruited since plenty apply plenty on their own.



Be smarter. He wants the traditional family. He wants to keep women home.

You need to see where he’s going; the exact words don’t matter as much as the fact he’s involved in this “Family” organization.




where did he say this?

It's obviously implied, and I'm not pp.

LOL nice try. But he literally says in the next sentence that efforts should be made to "recruit" men to those fields. So the issue is not recruiting, it's who is being recruited. Women = wrong, Men = right.


My mistake. He says it in the SAME sentence, not the next sentence.


I was reading the CNN article in the link, 5th paragraph. I don't see what you mention, but I believe you. No quarrel with you.

Replace women with any other group underrepresented in a career field and see how that sounds to you.

It's no wonder why there is a such a tiny number of R women in Congress compared to Dem women, and why R women are demanding more from their party to support more women in politics.

He should tell Greene and Boebert to quit and let a real man take their seat.

It looks like they aren't firing him. I wonder how he can possibly grade female students now- it seems like a claim of bias would be open and shut given his statements.

But this board assured me that if you wouldn't encourage your daughter to apply for college in retrograde states, you're a bigot.
