Why?
- Santo_44

shouldn't matter why and shouldn't be forced to change. Odd that men and women are different. Guys like stuff, women like people.

Why aren't there more guys becoming nurses? Or teachers?

I'm not sure there's a definitive answer to this.

- Scabeh

Are you kidding?

I would never of became a nurse...why? I would of get made fun of...or at least I thought I would be.

A good buddy of mine is a nurse, who is a guy. He received a lot of heat for it in high school.

So? Whats your point? That more men are engineers even though more women are educated in the field really? So? Maybe they changed their minds? Maybe they started families and decided not to pursue the career? This is proof of nothing.

There are more female nurses and teachers. What does that prove? That men and women have different strength and personality traits that suite certain careers? So?

The numbers are growing, just in the past 5 years.

Why is that?

OH, MUST be because women are just developing different interests coincidentally. There is no other explanation.

Here in Quebec it's a program you do after high school. Maybe people are little smarter past high school.

Yes - a high school nurse.

If your tummy feels funny during geography class, go see his buddy. Nurse's office is two doors down from the main office.

You do realize that men and women are different right? Biologically, Socially, etc? Are you implying its a case of Oppressive Patriarchal Western Structures and Inequality... sorry, your wrong... its called reality...

When I fell as a child my mom came over and hugged me. My dad stood back and yelled 'get up dumb ass'... why? Because men and women are different....
Also, I probably was being a dumb ass!!!

Wow, women must be changing biologically then.

With numbers growing in fields that are dominated by men. Wow I wonder how that happened.

It's only natural that a 9/10 ratio would drop with equal opportunities. Does this mean there are no differences between men and women that could influence their interests? I wouldn't go that far but it's not defining everything either.

As it was mentionned before, universities are so filled with women, it's only a matter of time before they become the majority in most highly educated fields.

These things are happening naturally, and one day we might have the opposite discussion on how to get our boys back in school (because yes, that's also a problem).

BUT THAT CUBA GOONING JR EH? WHAT A FREAK!

There is a reason these numbers are changing, and it’s not because of biology, It’s socially.

Don't know if this has already been mentioned here, but apparently Montgomery's transgression occurred over the weekend.

I am not sure its happening naturally. 'Boy' behavior is being labelled and medicated. Boys are struggling in education because of this and the style of education is not well suited for boys in general... imo

For the fun of the argument, why do you think it is we now have way more girls going to universities than boys?

Could it be the educational system is currently more appealing to girls? Could it be that it's because there are difference between them? Or do you think it's purely that, socially, we are encouraging women towards higher education than we are towards boys?

Personnally, I think there exists differences between them. They do not define everything but denying them completely would be as wrong as claiming they explain everything.

I think the biggest quesion is whether he was the peeist (ie. the Brad Marchand) or the pee-er (ie. the Zdeno Chara) in this transaction
