When you say things like this you make conservatives appear both ignorant and stupid. Romance studies means romance languages and literature, i.e. french, spanish, portuguese, italian, romanian, and various dialects thereof. It is a serious academic subject and you do your cause and ours no good by sneering.
Well Pardon me for my ignorance.
I am also sorry you are humorless.
I see now how serious the study of the so called Romance languages is. I can see where they are an absolute necessity to getting a good paying job.
A serious academic subject... no, it’s not a serious subject. Engineering is a serious subject...Chemistry is a serious subject. Romance studies is a frivolous subject..no different from Political “science”.
I have undergrad degrees in both PoliSci and Physics... believe me, I only had to study seriously at one of those...
