Why do men fare better than women in the college admission process?

Article here. Excerpt:

'For first-years admitted in the fall of 2023, Brown’s acceptance rate for male applicants was 6.9%, and the acceptance rate for female applicants was 4.2%, according to the University’s Common Data Set.

Despite an applicant pool of 19,666 men and 31,650 women, Brown still admitted a first-year class with an almost perfect 50/50 ratio of men to women. As a whole, the undergraduate population has a male-to-female ratio of 46/54. Federal methodology requires institutions to report applicants’ sex assigned at birth.

Brown’s admissions data mirrors a nationwide pattern: Since the 1980s, female enrollment has consistently surpassed male enrollment among institutions of higher education. Brown alum Peg Tyre ’83, Vice President of the EGF Accelerator — an accelerator for education nonprofits — provided some insight on the topic in book “The Trouble With Boys.”'

Unis would all be all-female (except for a handful of male athletes whose sport generates millions for the uni) if young women would go to an all-women college, but most don't want to. They want guys to f*ck. That's all this is about. No one wants to say it but if you do get say a 35% male / 65% female ratio, the girls start complaining that the gender imbalance is putting down their ability to get guys to pu$$y-beg to them. Well that's it in so many words. Plus how can an "oppressed minority" like women (who aren't in fact a minority) possibly be oppressed w/o an oppressor being around? [I speculate this is a subconscious motivation by the feminized admissions process mavens to keep giving them a reason to cry "Revolution now!"]

TLDR: A girl's gotta get laid. Plus, we need our downpressormen to give us something to denounce.
