Only prideful women believing the flattery of their weak husbands are proud of college.

“Proud” of college? I think you mean proud of themselves for completing, attending, or having been accepted for college.
Such persons are to be found all over, not limited to Catholic women with weak husbands! Personally, I find intellectual snobbery particularly distasteful.

What's there to be proud of? It's difficult sure, but it's unnecessary. I'm not shunning pious women who've humbly completed college but it's not worth being proud of yourself for. Children are an at times easier, all time more fulfilling accomplishment. Truly you're pushing yourself back. As we've discussed the biological clock can be overridden through adequate works though is still to be abided by. I would not go for a woman who has any obligations. I require a woman with free time, who is willing. It requires my duty to keep her secure for her to drop out and be with me. We are still able to "have" (if you live in it and earn enough, you "own" it, no need to worry) comfortable homes, settle down and have families Praise God for this.

High school up to 18 in the United States is another problem that seems to be neglected. From my point of view, if you're not lucky, fine. Go for your diploma. There are young men like me, 17-27, who would be interested in a high school age girl, and she is interested in him, but she feels the obligation to finish school as a requirement through indoctrination since elementary school. If I found a pious girl who is interested in the greatest good and who trusts my safety, it would not be a problem for her to drop out of school for her highest vocation. In the secular world, which is important, men and women with good intentions are getting discouraged and overall losing hope, which is also due to the lower birth rate. All those who relate under the generic term "white" have more difficulty finding a partner of the same ethnicity, Mediterraneans, Scandinavians, Hispanics and Western Europeans must mix to keep the general white consensus alive. I have no problem with this, like many whites, I myself am of mixed ethnicity, including αѕнкenαzι Jews of which I am enough to claim benefits, but I will never do so. I will never reconnect with the rest of my family to do that. Apart from diversion, we must find a way to reproduce ourselves Catholically and responsibly by the means by which God grants us, even if we must leave worldly obligations behind us.

[All bigger text posts like this one are put through French-English translation so I can express myself more thoroughly. Bare with me while I figure out how to make it smaller before I hit post.

In comparing the way education for women used to be, one may easily observe that the modern education system is designed to keep young girls and young women out of the home, and without the skills required to function in the home.

It is sad to see the amount of women who do not keep their homes clean, for example.

The woman is supposed to be the heart of the home, and the husband the head.

The heart brings warmth, comfort, and sweetness; the head brings order, leadership, and guidance. As in a human creature the heart is subject to the head, it is the same in marriage. None of this "the woman is the neck" foolishness.

In the human body, the physical heart does what a woman's function is in the home, and the brain does what a man's function is in the home. In contemplating things of nature and grace, one may see how beautiful and consistent the Creator is. His signature is always the same.

I do not see that signature in the current education system.

Let's bring back an esteem for the humble chores involved in homemaking. I recall hearing in a sermon once that Our Lady swept the  floors with greater love for God than the martyrs did in giving their lives for Him.
