In 2010, Sweden scrapped affirmative action in colleges because it ended up favouring men, as women outnumbered them: ''The education system should open doors – not shut them in the face of young women who are motivated to study''

I keep this in mind everytime people act like affirmative action is in any way about equality. You will have preferential treatment for women in STEM but, whether it is overall or in branches like Medicine and Law, you won't see men getting preferential treatment. Because doors shouldn't be shut on young women who are motivated to study, only young men.

Thus, we see "equality" is not the aim and never was.

The Svea Court of Appeal recently ruled in favour of 44 women who were not admitted to a veterinary programme because of their gender, awarding them damages of 35,000 kronor ($5,000) each.

The sex quota was introduced by them, after 10 years the balance its inclined by their side and they claim free competence. Hypocrites!

And a brief look at tomorrow's Swedish newspapers: following release of figures that show women are 99.99997% of graduates, columnists say young Swedish men need to "man up" and enrol in uni. On page 9, female students most affected by lack of marriageable male students...

Of course. Doors should only be shut in the faces of men.

gevander · 2017-07-31T02:07:01+00:00

The quoted sentence is missing two words: "... should open doors for women ..."

2017-07-31T08:32:12+00:00

How do women look at this and still have the nerve to claim that they are oppressed? How rotten do you have to be?

shloopyy · 2017-07-30T23:11:33+00:00

Sickening but not surprising. Feminists have no concept of fairness or justice.

Startthecar27 · 2017-07-31T00:09:42+00:00

Equality.

Only when we reach 106% female enrollment will we have truly achieved diversity

Affirmative Action is awful regardless of who it benefits.

Nooblapse · 2017-07-31T04:55:58+00:00

Men are second-class citizens now.

inyourfases · 2017-07-31T10:45:45+00:00

Whenever people talk about affirmative action, just say "so you think women/blacks/whatever aren't competent enough to get the job themselves? " Shuts them right up.

NoFanOfTheCold · 2017-07-31T11:01:57+00:00

Because the SJW movement is only concerned with The Holy Narrative and logic and truth must not interfere.

Lord_shitmeister · 2017-07-31T13:56:33+00:00

This gender equality program failed to favor women and was therefore terminated.

TrulyStupidNewb · 2017-07-31T17:59:36+00:00

Don't forget when Harvard suggested companies roll back blind recruitment when they found out that omitting the name actually favoured men compared to showing the names.

Actions done in the name of equality are removed the moment they don't favour the target demographic.

Women currently represent about 60 percent of university students in Sweden, a pioneer in gender equality.

60%

Equality.

....60%...

.......equality...

On the plus side, hypocritical, feminist Sweden is set to become a true Islamic patriarchy within a couple generations.

cbagainststupidity · 2017-07-31T18:14:35+00:00

Remind me of that blind program where company were hiring people without information on their gender to prevent any discrimination. They scrapped that one too, after realizing how it "advantaged" men.

UDT22 · 2017-07-31T05:07:28+00:00

Is anyone surprised?

Sweden: Welcome to the Rape Capital of Europe.

I get a pop up (on mobile) for this article and it's one of those sketchy ones that tells me my system is infected and that I should click here now to fix it.

The problem with affirmative action is that it is discrimination. If you give extra benefits to certain groups, then that is the same as taking away those benefits to the other groups. In order to create equality you have to find out where a minority group is being treated differently and then stop that from happening, not give them a different special benefit to make up for it.

TheJazzProphet · 2017-08-01T02:52:36+00:00

Oh, so it's fine if the education system shuts doors in the face of young men who want to study?

Fuck men, unless they're colored

edxzxz · 2017-07-31T17:27:56+00:00

So as soon as it becomes clear that the program isn't giving females an undue advantage, they end it or change it.

Juan_Golt · 2017-07-31T17:44:18+00:00

Feminism is about equality. Equality defined as: getting what you want that someone else has.

TigPlaze · 2017-07-31T18:37:21+00:00

And the feminists prove their hypocrisy once again

ZimbaZumba · 2017-07-31T19:31:23+00:00

"Equality of Outcome" goes out of the window when it does not serve their purposes.

SaturnisVictor · 2017-07-31T10:46:20+00:00

Sweden is a broken country on the verge of collapse or civil war. Who gives two shits about gender equality when your women gets raped on a daily basis and your newspapers are trying to cover it up?

The__Tren__Train · 2017-07-31T00:45:36+00:00

men shouldnt be allowed anywhere near women :)

beingrightmatters · 2017-07-31T12:58:00+00:00

The us isn't sweden. Sweden doesn't have Republican's fucking up real peoples lives.
