Do Young Women Even Care About Education?

[Leigh 87]

Man this guy is a joke:lmao:

 

He is going around saying that everyone should be doing math and hard sciences degrees and NEVER party at all when they are in their 20s.... Because, ya know, it is not what is best for them

 

WHAT a moron.

 

I have never heard anything so stupid in my life.

 

I probably get more male interest WITHOT a degree, than this loser gets with his stinky attitude.

 

 

 

...You see. guys like me because I am curious about the world! Because i can hold a conversation, and because I am pursuing a professional degree of my choosing, that will lead so a job that I am passionate about.

 

No LESS men will want me because I have zero interest in hard math and science

 

.........You know, TEACHERS are pretty bl00dy imppporant! WHERE Would you or your children be WITHOUT teachers?

I hope this dellusional poster NEEVER has children to be totally honest! He will drill it intot hem that to be successfull and happy in life, they need math and hard science in their degree:lmao:

 

ELSWYTH - can you IMAGINE telling your child that they need to do the hardest degrees in order to be anyone in life?

 

I think some people need to realise that even GETTING a degree that will lead to employment is still more education than about 60% of the population, most of which do not even bother with degrees.

 

..ANd what is with the talking down of "EASY" degrees!

SOFT SCIENCE degrees are STILL HARD WORK to pass!!!!!!

Teaching or social work, which I am going after, require you to put your head down and study every day for a few hours....

They are very respectable degrees, albiet not as challenging as a medical or hard science degree. BIG DEAL though?

 

 

 

 

You are going to have very few people who like you, if you look down on people who do certain degrees.

EDIT: Nice way to boast about your own accomplishments. Good for you.

 

Thanks!

But I don;t give a flying crap about hard sciences. THey are not the best outcome for me - I would be MUCH happier doing a teaching or social work degree.

 

That to me, is what is ideal for ME! Not EVERYONE longs to do a hard science degree just to get paid more:sick:

 

Chill out, Leigh. Last I heard, in Aussie, there are more job openings for teachers than there are for physics grads. You'll be fine.

 

D'Argennes doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, and he doesn't care. His selective bias towards certain university courses is just yet another facet in his constant modus operandi of gender warring.

I've got a degree and ended up doing an honours research year that required a 9-5 minimum commitment on campus (and some weekends). It was not easy and it definitely cut into my life, especially as my commute is 2 hours each way and income was 0. I questioned myself a lot during the last four years. But the sheer satisfaction after handing in my thesis made me realise it was all worth it. An education is something you'll have forever, and I forged many useful links in both academia and the industry.

 

You don't have to give up partying, but realise you can't do it all the time if you want to succeed! I don't really drink anyway though, but people I know who drank and partied in excess either dropped out or got poor GPAs. The important thing Leigh is to have time for yourself. For me, every Saturday (unless I had to go in) was spent with my girlfriend, while on Sundays I went hiking and bush walking. Remember the old quote: "everything in moderation". Good luck Leigh.

 

Re: the topic. I'm not a girl but education is important to me. She doesn't need a degree but needs to be educated in the sense that she is aware of the world and what's going on around us, that she knows history, etc. I don't want to spend all our time talking about beer and parties.
