If fewer young men (then women) choose college, is that necessarily a bad thing? Maybe there’s more money in the trades

I think both males and females are in trouble right now.

On the one hand, males are told — you are inherently bad. There is no hope for you. No matter what you do, you will always be a sexist pig. You are bad person, maybe you should kill yourself.

On the other hand, female seem to be told — you go girl! You are awesome! You are the center of the universe! If they won’t accept you at your worst, then they don’t deserve you at your best. Don’t hold back! Do whatever you like! There are no limits to you and the world owes you everything. Anyone who tries to hold you back is a bad person, maybe they should kill themself.

The majority of females with BS degrees are in BS.

I push young intelligent men towards the trades.
The smartest toward electrical work.
Tons of work, and good money in electrical utility work.

This has been the case for awhile. Surprised some are just now noticing it. At my college women outnumbered men nearly 2 to 1.

“Forty per cent of 18-year-old women in Britain head off to college, compared to 29 per cent of their male peers.”

Those boys need to crack some books.

It states, didn’t more women attend college than men starting in 1980?

Eliminate the career paths for women which the otherwise useless college degrees lead to and everyone will be better off.

It’s no wonder, they get defecated on at every turn.

Toxic masculinity, toxic testosterone, man spread, mansplainin’, the only accepted man is the one that calls himself a woman and needs tampons for his Barbie pouch.

These people are destroying society and nature.

The feminists dream. It was their stated goal from the beginning to destroy Men. They started working on boys in grade school by them and teaching them that who they were was toxic. Every program to help students over last 30 years has been aimed at girls and it has worked. And even with that success they are still all aimed at girls. Boys have been forgotten just like the angry feminists have the 60’s hoped. But interestingly if you listen to the democrats and the media, you’d think women were still chattel in a patriarchal society. It will take mothers who have seen enough to change it.

They've learned the only way to win the game is not to play it.

For example, the Tang Ping or "Lie Flat" movement:

HEAL vs, STEM degrees.
Any idiot can get a Degree in a HEAL type of job. we see that all the time ever talk to a government administrator? That is generally a BA degree,
STEM degrees are much more challenging and require BS degree.
Don’t overlook the trades. My father insisted that I learn a trade before considering college. That is what our boys are missing. I apprenticed as a shipwright and worked at it professionally for a while. Then military technical schools, and then a Computer Science BS degree.
There isn’t a problem for me finding a job about anywhere.

At some point Companies will become desperate for POSITIVE RESULTS and start hiring/promoting base upon merit again.

Business is in serious trouble, not males. I highly doubt all these females are getting real degrees. They must be majoring in some abused minority studies programs or something like French Renaissance Poetry.

Take a look at the percentages. 43% of either sex is entirely too high. That means there is a substantial number of intellectually inferior students. In other words, a high percentage of students fall within one standard deviation away from mean IQ. In other words, not college material. The figure for males is a bit more realistic.

College should not be for everyone. That notion leads to a lot of very dissatisfied people and is not good for business. There is nothing wrong with working in the trades or females working for a few years before settling down raising a family.

So if there are more male graduates, women are lacking opportunity. If there are more female graduates, men are suffering a malaise.

Sounds like an affirmative-action quota system is required to keep the balance perfectly even for the professional worriers.

In the USA, college football is the main source of revenue that supports ALL of the women’s programs. Title IX killed most of the other men’s sports program (besides basketball). The women can now get easy athletic scholarships, where they major in Queer Studies or Womyn Degrees. A lot good that will do them when they go out into the real world.

This article bemoans the fact that there are not enough men in Nursing & Early Childhood Education (ECE). While you can make good money in nursing, I don’t think the profession appeals to men in general. ECE is even worse. Not only is the pay very low, but any man in ECE is just asking to be accused of child abuse (or worse) if he does one off color thing.
