Our colleges and grad programs are geared to take minorities and women over white men.
It's done by every school I have seen whether public or private.
And employers are frequently looking for women and minorities to fill slots...protection from tort claim slots...
It's become ridiculous ..especially in government and large businesses and law schools and medical schools
no matter how hard they try they simply cannot force women into natural sciences, engineering and architecture fields
but...aside form the fact this is simply wrong
I myself for over 20 years now have watched women get these degrees and by age 35 they either quit or go part time
and they are allowed to because their employers fear the lawyers
i know several women with medical degrees...doctors...who have a baby and simply decide not to practice or practice a light schedule...which is fine on one hand
but since they often marry well employed men, they can quit easily
lawyers...same thing
teachers...very often...in my kids schools we see pretty under 30 girls and know they will bow out in time...now they may come back in 10-20 years
I sure don't fault women for being moms...I bow at that altar
but I think that if PREFERENCE caused them to beat out a future husband sole provider just so they could go to medical or law etc school and then quit early in their career (it's always career for gals..not job) and thereby it causes several things bad for our culture
1) future husband loses out for political reason and we lose his LIFETIME work input
2) we spent that capital and time to educate someone and get little return...this is also an issue in the military too
hence...my view...women should think about where their priorities lie before degrees...identity preference should end...that would cure a lot
this is a serious problem...I am pals with a number of male docs and a few retired as I stated former female docs and this is a fairly steady refrain
well trained women who are attractive and marry are simply less likely to use their training even half what a man/father/husband would
unforeseen blowback from feminism...wrought by women who never married or had kids anyhow
A man isn’t more “entitled” to a slot in medical school just because a woman might decide to bow out for a while or forever to have kids.
And if it’s your view that everything should be organized for the maximum “lifetime benefit” to society rather than individuals pursuing happiness — why don’t you follow that line of reasoning to its natural conclusion?
Male doctors shouldn’t be allowed to marry at all or have children. It’s a distraction.
And they should have to live in dorms. On site. At the hospital. So they can work more hours.
Why should male doctors who aren’t willing to live this way “beat out” the ones who are?
Wouldn’t that be the most beneficial to society?
