While the shift in the college gender ratio is often characterized as men “falling behind,” men are actually more likely to go to college today than they were when they were the majority, many decades ago.
This is a total non-sequitur. “Falling behind” is clearly in comparison to women’s enrollment rate, not the rate at some point in the past.
“Many decades ago” many of the jobs that require a college degree today only required a high school diploma.
Because of the change in ratio, some selective colleges discriminate against women in admissions to maintain a gender balance
Oh, so now it’s discrimination.
There are still some good-paying jobs available to men without college credentials. There are relatively few for such women.
And here I thought that men and women were supposed to be basically the same, right? Not to mention the fact that some trades are quite open to women if they wanted those jobs, but they largely do not.
The fact that the male-female wage gap remains large after more than four decades in which women outnumbered men in college strongly suggests that college alone offers a narrow view of opportunity.
Or it suggests that women make choices that tend to result in lower wages that you conveniently ignore because it does not advance your cause.
None of this diminishes the significance of the male decrease in college enrollment and graduation.
The author just spent the first 12 of 16 paragraphs telling us how women are the real victims here.
But about 200,000 fewer women were enrolled in community college last year nonetheless. If we’re looking for a college enrollment crisis, that’s also a good place to start.
This is the concluding paragraph. Forget women outnumbering men 6 to 4, the real crisis is how the pandemic affected enrollment rates for women (even though they were “less likely than men to leave community college”).
Somewhat of a silver lining is that a lot of this women will not find a husband/ partner and will die depressed and miserable.
Women will not date men bellow them so college educated women will have a harder time finding a men.
Add to that how culture managed to brainwash women in to thinking that working 9 hours a day or more is what makes you happy and husband = patriarchy and children are dead weight and you get a recipe for disaster.
Men do survive as bachelors better then women, maybe this is why women try to ruin escapism for guys.

Fucking hell.

Explain all the single mothers who paid the coal toll then. We all know it's the men that left those relationships and not the other way around
