Your mom

I loved Wellesley and thought my social life was fine, but your DD should visit and see if she wants to be in the environment. While there may be some social negatives for male interaction while attending (depending on what you want), there are many more positives imo for a lifetime of connection to a sisterhood, and the academics are truly amazing and sets you up for success.

Similar to a women’s prison.

I have a few cousins who went to them, and one just married a man, but I am expecting to hear the others are lesbians within the next ten years. In general, they have a higher concentration of lesbians (or questioning) than co-ed schools.

Wellesley the only one I would consider (considering my grandmother and spouse are both alums), historically the most elite.

However, these institutions have changed quite a bit in recent years and are now increasingly dominated by foreign students, FGLI cases, and crazed liberal LGBTQ+ or race grievance types. They simply don't draw from the same social strata they used to.

The traditional rule for Harvard men was "Lesley to bed, Wellesley to wed, and Radcliffe to talk to." Wellesley and the other 7 sisters used to educate the most intelligent, accomplished and desirable women in America. After many decades of the ravages of co-education and liberalism, that is no longer the case.

Probably best to pass them up and look into SEC schools with a strong sorority scene.

NP: I’m from a country where single-sex college eduction is unheard of. Is there a bias in the country among some people that if you attended an all women college that it’s kind of weird or would it imply something about your personality or you can’t do as well if there are men around? No flame please but that’s what someone from my hometown would wonder

Hot lesbian sex

This.
I went to Bryn Mawr, but it’s nearly $70k in tuition now. I’m not sure how an all-women’s college makes any financial difference.

If single sex is a good fit for your daughter, all the all-women’s colleges I can think of provide an excellent education, however.

What aspects of it make it confusing to you?

I'm not sure why the single sex aspect would matter to anybody except your student.

When I hire, the rigor or reputation of the school does bear on my assumptions about the candidate but the gender makeup of the student body does not.

Wellesley for sure. Lots of respect.

Weirdo. It's still uncommon. But for the right woman it's a good fit.
