Since it's the end of the school year everyone is starting to pick what classes they want to have for the next year. I've always been big into computers from building them to programming them. I'm not very good at programming computers so when I saw the class in the booklet full of classes I could take, I wrote it down. I read further after the first sentence and it was perfect until I got to the bottom. It said,
[quote]This class is only offered to females [/quote]
What? Why is this even a thing? What's the logic behind making a computer programming class female only? I'm confused as to why this isn't deemed as discrimination and is seen as socially acceptable.
Edit: I did ask why and they said they wanted to "steer women into the field by offering a class with others of the same gender to make them more comfortable" or some stupid reason like that. It still doesn't justify why they didn't also make a class for males.

Edited by NIGHT LORD14: 5/18/2016 7:17:49 PMThe fact of the matter is that feminism is working, but in all the wrong ways. The goal of feminism was to create equality of opportunity for women, opportunity being the keyword. Third-wave feminism seems to want to push more toward what's called equality of outcome, meaning no matter how qualified a male applicant, the outcome should be a male/female of 50/50, of course if the outcome happens to have more women than men then hooray, yet another victory against the tyranny of the Patriarchy!
