Liberals, what are you doing to address the unfair balance of males to females in college level education? (carry, money)

Non issue to me. The OP thinks otherwise, ask him/her.

I will read it (and respond), following a confirmation that you agree with the article in its entirely.

See this thread for details.

Men and women have equal opportunity now, so isn't that what really matters?

If less men attend university now, isn't it a question of academic achievement, rather than opportunity?

Yes and yes, of course. Somehow equal opportunity got conflated with equal achievement.

"Conservatives" are merely making excuses for what they perceive to be their personal shortcomings as a man compared to women.

And if YOU were honest you'd admit that's pure BS!

There's NOTHING intrinsically unfair about an imbalance and until the OP proves his allegation that the imbalance he cites is unfair this entire premise is nothing but self-Righteous hogwash.

If you are really interested, read this book:Douglas County Libraries | Why gender matters :


Here is but one resource that they gave us in my district a couple of years ago, but I don't think it can be acessed on the internet:
Power, S., Edwards, A., Whitty, G. and Wigfall, V. (1998) Schoolboys and schoolwork:gender identication and academic achievement, Journal of Inclusive Education, 2(2): 53.

I should have put a smiley face or something as I was being facetious.

The last thing we need is more government involvement. We should have them out of the eduction system more IMO since we have seen a ton of money from the federal level thrown towards eduction and test scores have remained stagnant.

What do statistics have to do with right or left? Are you denying that women out-number men nationally in colleges?

Women also outnumber men in overall population.
