We decided against it for our son and he is going to a coed Catholic school. My DH went to a well-reguarded catholic college and was uniformly unimpressed by the boys who went to all boys Catholic schools across the country. Is it a bias? yes. Was it 30 years ago? yes. Did it still factor into our decision? yes.

Totally agree with this

Why do you guys think kids at single sex shcools don't interact with the opposite sex? Weird take.

I absolutely agree! Most of them ride the bus together. These schools also have prom and other school activities together. Trust me these are teenagers they are interacting more than you think.

No they aren't. This is just part of the sales pitch.

I went to a coed school and when I got to college I found it difficult to focus with all the girls in class. That's a condition of life for college guys.

Because the average college girl in 2026 is dressing like a literal whore in class. They wear "skim" tube tops and booty shorts with their boobs and lower ass cheeks falling out. It's shameful.

Not my experience. Both of my kids went to Catholic universities and girls dressed pretty conservatively--either preppy or athletic wear (sweatshirts and leggings, etc.).

There a few places where folks know their role.
