I wish the guy success. Anything anyone can do to rid the world of "womens studies" is to be applauded. Waste of time, like "Black studies". Hispanic studies and the like.
If you want to take a course in psychology that stresses women's issues, fine. But don't drum up a fictional education course that has no merit and ask someone to fund it or accredit it.
While I'm at it, I'd also like to ban Lifetime TV from the airwaves and that other touchy feely fat chick rag that has 6 depressing females trying to solve the problems of another depressed/depressing gal.
I think I just formed a new theory! Chronic depression is caused by hanging out with losers and talking about how depressed you are!
Womens studies.
Here's a study for ya-
get yer a$$ in the kitchen and back in the bedroom and learn how to be a real partner to a male once in awhile, and you won't have to take all the classes to find out why you're so f__ked up you can't keep a good guy.

Women's course are vital...

For a guy, it starts at age 3 and continues until death...It's a subject that is impassable...

When I was in high school, I wanted to take trigonometry. The problem was that our school was very small and did not offer trigonometry.

Guys could take football or basketball in lieu of PE. Girls could take four full years of home economics. All of which seemed like a frigging waste of time and resources to me.

But I couldn't take trig.

So a friend and I started a petition. We got every student who would sign up for trig, if it was offered, to sign.

And voila! The school gave us a trigonometry class.

I guess that I really should have just sued.

Sometimes I do tell it like it is a little too straight forwardly. You sound like a woman who cares about her family, and her country and culture.
I used to give everybody the benefit of the doubt about their lack of mothering skills and/or comprehension of the natural laws of cohabitation with the male gender.
But I cut the BS a long time ago. If some women want to sit around and take classes and watch soap operas to try to solve their problems, who am I to stop them.
But yes, I think a lot of classes are a little too focused on the individual to the exclusion of the family/community/country.
I'm not saying we all have to grab a scrub board and start ringing a triangle for supper.
Just a little give on both sides of the street would make life a lot easier for people (given equal starting points.)
And women give that 75% in most successful marriages. You let him have his ego. You maybe share some chores that each of you can do w/o a problem.
He surprises you with special dinners and presents and is willing to fix or pay to repair anything that breaks that y'all can't handle.
There are exceptions to every plan. But if you are 5'3'' and 130 lbs, and he is
5'9" at a 160 with that ever present different point of gravity, you let him change the tire and try to have a nice supper ready a few days out of the week. Simple. Cancel your womens issues class.

..and men: Your wife should never open her own door when you're there. It's part of your job description to pamper her with every little thing you can think of. Opening doors, killing things she doesn't like, letting her out in front of the store while you find a parking spot, taking out the garbage, going to dumb "chick-flick" movies with her, holding her purse while she trys on clothes, etc. She gives more than you do in the day to day issues of life and you give more than she does in the long term issues of life. So you need to give back to her in the smaller day to day things of life.

It's never about one person being over another, it's about both people being submitted to each other and catering to each other's needs. When you start demanding your way is when problems arise, but when you focus on what the other person needs first, you'll see a great relationship arise instead. Of course this requires that both sides know what the others needs are BY LISTENING, NOT TALKING!!
