Author Topic: Females in Education (Read 6817 times)

In our modern society everything seems to have passed the high point of male dominance in education and has instead seemed to go towards a societal decline of female dominance in nearly every educational field.

Now don't get me wrong I don't think women should be trained to be stupid and should go to school and have appreciation for culture, the arts, history, physical health and limited scientific study but the idea that women should go to higher educational fields and take jobs away from men is damn near pornographic. In the medical field for instance, a field which was once dominated by men exclusively, women now hold nearly all doctor positions. In law, a field once dominated by men, a vast portion of lawyers are now women.

In universities, organisations of learning which were exclusively male-dominated, women now are dominant in all of them! In the military, an exclusive male-dominated organisation since the Battle of Thermopylae, women are now given combat positions!

Meanwhile as this is happening the birthrates have increasingly declined to no-replacement levels, the consequence of letting a woman's selfish desire for learning override the common good of the community to leave such professions as the military, doctors, factory workers, etc. to men. This phenomenon also leads to vast unemployment as women take jobs away from men and men have no money to start a family with a woman.

The medical field dominated by women? Nursing, maybe, but in my experience, the overwhelming majority of doctors have been male. There's still a very wide gender gap in medicine.

If you look at your current hospitals, at least 25% of doctors these days are women. Anyway my point was that women should not go into medicine at all but should be closed off from such a profession. Nursing is of course one job women should be able to do.

Some women prefer to have female doctors out of modesty. These women would rather not be examined by a man. Considering the way that modesty is under attack in our society, perhaps this should be encouraged.

While I can see some excuse for female doctors in certain circuмstances, women in combat is just wrong.

Girl's education must be primarily focused on the sacred role of motherhood and wifehood. Girls should be trained how to be homemakers and if they do not marry or enter the Religious vocation, they should use their feminine virtues such as caring and nurturing towards the welfare of the community (professions like nursing and teachers come to mind). It is an obligation towards society, but most importantly it is God's will that women honor their sacred role of bringing and nurturing future soldiers of Christ, thus populating Heaven with saints. If not physical mothers, they should somehow be spiritual mothers and servants of God in the community.

There is nothing wrong with women pursuing other intellectual interests, as hobbies, if they so wish it, but this is never to be at the expense of their God's given role (meaning entering the workforce to compete and take away the jobs of men, who really need them in order to provide and protect their wives and children). If for some reason, SINGLE women must enter the workforce outside the home, they should abstain from male dominated professions (constructor workers, truck drivers, soldiers, etc).

It was Our Lady, Blessed Mary who restored womanhood to her proper position. Girls must be truly encouraged to be Mary Like in all their ways, actions, and pursues.

Unfortunately, it has been accepted in our times that women are expected to have a profession and career like men. There seems to often be the argument that women need something behind them just in case if the husband dies first, but that is where the men should make the preemptive provisions for if something like that did happen. I understand if the women need to work to have necessary sustenance, but that is definitely not the ideal and normal situation. The common practice of today goes against the nature of women as well as that of men. From just my work experience, the women still naturally will tend to expect the man to do things and follow his direction and advice, yet tension arises by the same token because the women attempt to still be like the man by trying to lead and comment on things strongly and even forcefully. Women can have a say on things, but in the end, men should have the final say. Men are more accountable before God than women. They should then take more into consideration what their role actually is on earth.
There are a lot of women who are great professionals, but even though they can work, that does not mean they necessarily should work, save in professions like what Cantarella mentioned.
I know how it can be difficult to find good options for a spouse, TG20, but we should try to "go for the gold" if God wills us each to marry. A "normal" woman is what we should find, as how a priest who advised a friend of mine put it. It does not hurt to be open though to if God wills someone for each of us to marry who is open to sincere conversion.

Obviously I am called for marriage, however I have to find the right girl who can tolerate my views before I can be married.

If you look at your current hospitals, at least 25% of doctors these days are women. Anyway my point was that women should not go into medicine at all but should be closed off from such a profession. Nursing is of course one job women should be able to do.

It depends on the field of medicine, though. There are fields that deal specifically with women's health, e.g. OB/GYN (pregnancy and the reproductive system) where having a man in that position is wrong because of the sheer nature of the profession. Others, no, they can be as male-dominated as they want (and in my experience, very much so).

Speaking of pregnancy, it is obvious that midwife is a job for a woman. (Unfortunately, in my area this career has become dominated by feminists.)

That makes sense, in the old days it was dominated by witches.

There's a difference?

It's not wrong for a man to specialize in gynecology.

Secondly many older aren't comfortable seeing a female physician. My experience is I've found male physicians to be far more accepting of natural roles and respecting Christian morals.

Not to derail the thread, but what views? What you started the thread with?
