No no, it isn't the foids causing this issue, it's somehow the men!

I don't think affirmative action has much to do with it, lol. The problem exists for multiple reasons, some due to policy some due to just natural factors.

A) Men have a much easier time finding well-paying jobs that do not require a college education, and they're more willing to do those jobs than women are. Right away men view college as less valuable than women do.

B) Higher education has genuinely become incredibly toxic for men, I'd be not very shocked if men dropped out of college at much higher rates than women do, due to how toxic it can be and the fact men are more likely to have social problems than women are.

This is all made worse by the education system outright refusing to address the problems men and boys face within the education system, an almost hostile resistance to even admitting a problem exists causes them to do the exact opposite, and funnel more money into making the education system (that's already very friendly to women) even more friendly to them, at the expense of men across the board.

Women being a minority in 4/11 fields of study is a national crisis, being a majority in 7/11 is an achievement to be celebrated. Your average college has like 50 different programs for women, 0 for men.

We're in the middle of a serious crisis amongst young men in America, a crisis nobody will really acknowledge because it's inconvenient for the feminist movement, and thus the established liberal order to do so.

What efforts they do make to address these problems are framed almost exclusively through the lens that men are just defective women and should be more like women and their problems are their own fault, which is never the case when talking about the issues women face.
