That is a very interesting hypothesis.
I would call the feminist movement pathologic at this point. Its pathology is driving its adherents more and more insane. Not only are women supposed to be stupid and hyper-emotional, but they can’t even care about their appearance without being demonized. And feminists have been working hard to make sure that people perceive women as no more than walking genitalia. This is supposed to demonstrate that women are the intellectual equals of men, how?
I do not think that separate education is good for anyone. Feminism is tempered when girls learn alongside boys. Take away the boys, and the girls are taught the most rabid, illogical tenets of "feminism" possible. And when boys are taught in the absence of girls, they learn the most hyper-testosterone driven behavior possibly. Hyper masculine men and hyper feminist women aren't going to get along, ever. Children need that interaction with the opposite gender in order to develop properly.
Feminism is the problem, not coeducation.
Once upon a time, I was faced with the same choice as you. I knew it was easy to just kill the child and pretend it never existed, and I knew several young women who had done just that. But I also knew that I would have to live with that decision, and doubted my ability to keep pretending, year after year. So I made the decision that I knew I could live with, and I have never regretted it.
That boy found me a few years ago. He is a father of two beautiful children, now teenagers. His birthday was Friday. I should call him...

When I met my wife, I saw only a pretty young woman, and was simply looking to have some fun. We were sitting in a restaurant have lunch and a “get to know each other” conversation, when she casually mentioned having had a baby at 17. I knew she didn’t have a child living with her, so I stopped the conversation right there to ask “Where’s that baby?”.
She took on a very tender demeanor and explained that she had thought about having an abortion, but couldn’t do it. She also knew that she couldn’t raise a baby properly by herself, so she gave him up for adoption. I decided then that she might turn out to be a keeper, as she had put her baby’s welfare before her own desires. Turned out I was right. We are coming up on our 18th anniversary- our daughter just turned 16, and that boy she put up for adoption was raised by loving parents, and is now a grown man.
I hear ya on that.
Christina Hoff Summers calls it “fainting couch feminism”, reverting to the “oh, he said something unacceptable, get me the vapors before I faint” or “I don’t like it, I will tantrum, give it to me”.
