Colleges All Girl's School

We have no sorrorities in our college. I'm not saying men are not capable of probing conversation, but many girls are intimitaded my men and therefore reluctant to share in class. I do consider myself a feminist and so does my school but you are looking at feminist wrong. fem·i·nism /'f?m??n?z?m/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[fem-uh-niz-uhm] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation –noun 1. the doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men. 2. (sometimes initial capital letter) an organized movement for the attainment of such rights for women. 3. feminine character. dictionary.com It's not a bad thing to be a feminist and we don't look down on men at all. Also the majority of the college females on my campus are not concerned with finding a male partner as much as they are finding a career and networking for future buisness relationships.

I'm glad that the majority of the women at your school are more interested in advancing themselves. That's the way it should be and I suspected as much. I do understand the feminist philosophy and I agree that everyone should be equal. I realize the world is not yet on this level, sadly. I also feel like the feminist agenda is hindered by some who take issues in the wrong direction (similiar to but not "on the same level" as African-Americans who decided to take militant action rather than diplomacy in the 60's).I can imagine the frustration though, and unfortuneately I'm not able to offer any solution.

i disagree, you still interact with guys in all girls schools.

It is a great experience. Your exactly right, it is a fairly relaxing day, you wear sweats to pants and people don't care about how they look. I'm sure you would have been more focused. I wish you the best of luck with your future, whatever you are doing today.

our school does not shelter us from men, they are still everywhere and we have oppurtunities to take classes at neighboring networking colleges, with men. We learn to perform with and compete against men but also that we have the lower step already and how to battle that and overcome it. It teaches women they can do a great job before they have men tearing them down in the world.

you would hate to be without boys? why? we still see boys all the time, it's a city, they are everywhere. They simply are not in our classes, they still visit our dorms and live in the same vicinity.

i think your exactly right girls can have fun without guys. i agree with you, thank you for sharing

ha, i went to a coed high school. I know what it's all about. The girls still here have just as much fun, but in classes people are more focused, there is no flirting there is paying attention, which i love. The girls here are still with guys, just not in their classes.

I really like your comment, thank you for sharing this. You are right, i can understand how you would see it as discrimination, and years ago i would have said the same thing. For such a long time there were all male schools and the ceiling is a lot lower for women than men out there. Often times women do feel lower in the academic world compared to men and my school is all about creating strong women. Thank you.

very true. That was part of the reason i picked this school in the first place, ha. but you'll find that there are gay people everywhere and anywhere in the world and we have more straight girls than gayl.

that is not the reason that some ladies end up getting attracted to fellow ladies. You are attracted to to whoever you are attracted to not whether you are around men or not.
