Universities are primarily advertising to women - no kidding that lowers male enrollment rates

Shocker: they don’t care. They have enough students that they can get to enroll and it’s not lack of diversity if less males are there.

I don’t think this is leading to lower enrollment rates, that trend has been going on a while. It’s actually inverted completely since the 1970s and has been well documented. Media outlets just don’t want to talk about it.

It’s worsening too. I’ll post a source later when I have a chance, if desired.

This doesn’t seem to bother anyone. We need more women-only STEM programs! /s

I support MRA obviously (45M), but come on, the ads drive men to apply to college?

we've got bigger problems than university ads featuring women my dude.

I regret signing uni. I wish they rejected me. It's awful and stressful. But what can I say? I was pressured. In my class women and men are about equal number.

However I am well aware that more men don't apply or drop out.

What do they have against men? Modern society is slowly destroying them. But NOT ON MY WATCH!

There are an increasing amount of majors geared towards women such as gender studies. Many of these majors have no real application outside of the university.

You do realise that women can not, and will not, ever be held to the same standards as men? Sure, if an advertising campaign is majority male, we will see companies apologising for underrepresenting women, yet if it is the other way around, it simply will not be mentioned. This will never change, no matter how much bitching “MRA”s and this subreddit does. To understand why, you need to have a deeper look into the way that the media operates and how companies get funded, and how these contribute towards a growing neo-Marxist movement which seeks to divide the sexes and races against each other.

Feels like they want to drive men into trades and dangerous physical jobs, so that women can take the white collar office jobs.

Yeah, and its no coincidence that universities are a cesspool for feminism, equality, and all that other social warrior crap.

So? Let them have it. It is already ruined anyways. https://youtu.be/N0uSQlAUDNA

They carry the most consumer debt and are now trying to forgive that debt via bailout.

Universities want all the money they can get, whether it’s money from a male or female. Also, who does or doesn’t go to college because they saw an ad?

There is a silver lining. If they aren't targeting men with their advertisements, they can't browbeat them into taking a worthless degree. So there's that.

swashington424 · 2022-11-04T21:10:43+00:00

Here in the US, most advertisements these days feature white men and women of color. It's a way of checking the racial/gender diversity box while preserving the traditional white male protagonist. It's the men of color who get excluded.

And male university enrollment rates are lower because men can get well-paying jobs right out of high school in construction, transportation, law enforcement, etc. without having to go into debt. Women, by contrast, need to have university degrees to even be considered for most jobs.

Forget about advertising. They even give affirmative action and scholarship to only womens Because test are biased against women.
