Women who attend women's colleges also get raped by men.

So you are suggesting preferential admissions and financial support for young men, even though men have historically had greater academic and economic opportunity than women, in the name of achieving gender balance? Seriously?
Just because the temperature used to be too hot doesn't mean you should keep the AC on even when it gets too cold.
Except men are still earning far more despite earning less education.
That should be equalized obviously
But has nothing to do with the topic of gender imbalance on college campuses
I am a physician, most have mommy tracked themselves-therefore make less money, it was a choice
Studies control for all sorts of things--years off, hours worked, education level everything people can think of and a gender pay gap persists.
And is then minuscule…

I am a female physician and actually raised the hourly pay not just for me but for my male colleague (because actually I don't like to keep things hush) because I had the spunk to ask, many female physicians I know (from Ivy schools) believe it is too primitive to ask for money because you know "we do this because its the morally right thing to do-help people" so there is a lot of that...they would rather be liked than have money.
I have to find it to confirm, but I believe I remember there are experimental studies that show that requests for raises are not viewed as favorably when asked for by women vs men, and when reviewing identical resumes and work evaluations that had a male vs a female name on it, people voted to give the man a higher raise on average than the woman.

You mean the whole theme of this thread: where are the “GOOD” white guys? Those who haven’t met MY standards by the age of 18 totally suck and I only want to go to school with those who have it all figured by then.
The whole thing is ridiculous.

Because that is a critical age developmentally and normal socializing/dating is a part of it. Especially for kids who were too busy to have a normal social life in HS and might finally have that chance in a residential college setting.
If that’s the case, they should stop with the male bashing.
When WILL a white guy in this country ever catch a break? 🙄
And yet your daughters are concerned there are not enough of them to date!

I have two daughters. I don't have sons. We raised our daughters to be smart, self-sufficient.
I absolutely want this problem to be resolved because I want my daughters to have their pick of equals in the dating/marriage department. Flame away, but I don't want my daughters to choose to be gay because there are no suitable men to date.
Look at what happened to the black community over the years. Many of their men are not suitable for dating/marriage. So while the women may have babies with them, the men practically abandon their families leaving the women to raise kids in a single parent household. Look at all the problems that is creating. Serious long term damage to the black community because their men are not up to snuff.
I know there has been lots of criticism in the past on all the emphasis there is for girls and their appearance but I think there should be an emphasis to boys on their appearance as well. Put an emphasis on how boys can take care of their appearance, not get addicted to video games, all that stuff. Start building boys up in a healthy way.
I promise you the "super geeky boys" folks are complaining about are not about to start leaving a trail of single mothers in their wake. Regardless of admissions policies, there will always be plenty of excellent men, they just might not be the Tinder-level hot required to get sexual attention and may be doing a trade instead of college.
Also... "choose to be gay"?

I don't see how a strong work ethic would increase college enrollment. If anything it might increase the desire to start working hard to earn a living via trades or business ASAP rather than delaying things another 4 years.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Parents need to bar their boys from screens, laziness, and junk food.
Boys should be working out, working hard, playing outside, and studying. It’s our own fault that so many boys suck. Say no to screens and don’t let your boy be a loser.
I agree this is the issue far more than political ideologies. Boys need to be taught to have a strong work ethic and digital distractions need to be quashed early and often. Also, stop privileging travel sports above academics. I know too many boys who feel like their sports commitments matter far more than academics. Um, no.
