Men becoming the disadvantaged group in Education

[quote]"Applications to universities in the UK have risen by 4% compared with this time last year - but fewer men are applying. There are warnings that men are becoming a "disadvantaged group" in terms of going to university because they are less likely to apply than women. Young men are becoming a disadvantaged group in terms of going to university and this underperformance needs urgent focus across the education sector."[/quote] Finally people are waking up to the fact that because people are trying to get girls to succeed they are holding men back to pander for the girls. So much for Feminism.

I think this is just the result of a change in career choices for men. I wouldn't call not opting into university sexism anymore than I would call girls not choosing to enter handiwork professions sexism.
