But women have been a majority of college graduates since the 1980s, and their numbers are growing. Yeah, those degrees in Mesopotamian culture and LGBT studies are very lucrative.

Uuum no...women are starting to earn all the technical degrees also. 85% of the people in my sisters veterinarian class are women.

The majority of veterinary school grads have been women for several decades now.

Write back when the majority of physicists, mathematicians and electrical engineers are women.

How many women get degrees in Math, Comp Sci, Engineering, or Physics?
In my experience: very few, comparatively. {In my opinion this is because women generally think differently than men, and the difference is one that manifests itself here: the subjects here lend themselves to the male mode of thought far more than female. [Yes, I'm using generalities.]}

Back a hundred years the same was true about the Lawyer profession; now not so much. I think one of the defining characteristics of the Hard Sciences that Law had is that of Logic. Law has lost its dependence on logic: for example the NM State Constitution specifically prohibits law abridging the right of the citizen to carry for security and defense [Art II, Sec 6] as well as prohibiting counties & municipalities from regulating "in any way, an incident of the right to keep and bear arms"; however the State, County, and City courts I'm familiar with all prohibit firearms saying "violators will be prosecuted [by law]" -- All my efforts to bring this Constitutional issue up are deflected with excuses. {This is an issue because people not accused of any crime may be compelled to appear in court: jurors and witnesses.}

Now; gut check: what was your reaction to the last part of the previous paragraph? Was it a "yeah, that doesn't fit" OR "What!? you cant take guns int courthouses!!"?

Thats because we have too many “Macho-Men” who want to be “Bob the builder” many because they`re too stupid and lazy to study anything more cerebral than running a skid-steer.
