Some people argue that Universities should accept an equal number of male and female students for all courses. Do you agree or disagree?

It is argued by some people that an equal

number

of students from both genders should be accepted in all courses by universities.

However

, I completely disagree with

this

viewpoint. At the outset, in spite of empowering women, there is a certain drawback of

this

approach. People advocate that having an equal

number

of genders in various courses, females could be empowered significantly, especially in the male-dominant societies. Because in

such

part of the world, equal female participation could lead to well educated females and good career opportunities for them.

Nonetheless

, despite its potential benefits, it seems to me that

this

approach is not a workable solution for the upliftment of women in the society. Due to the social perception, in

such

universities, it would not be easier to fill the reserved seats for the feminines.

On the other hand

, various other methods could be adopted by governments

such

as awareness campaigns for the empowerment of female members. Moving on,

firstly

this

trend would inculcate a sense of discrimination amongst brilliant male students. If, despite having good merit scores, they are not allowed to take their desired courses, they would think that the system is unfair.

Such

thinking would lead to a disastrous life in the case of their education and

further

their careers

as a result

.

Secondly

, the same

number

of genders in tertiary education seems an impractical idea. It would not be possible to fill the vacant seats in higher education by both genders equally because certain courses are preferred by certain sexes. To cite a real-world example, in various countries, engineering subjects are chosen by males, while nursing courses are by females. Given

this

situation, these seats would remain vacant.

This

further

leads to the

third

demerit

that is

the economic loss of Universities. As admitting a huge

number

of students is one of the main sources of the income for any institutes, it would be an uphill task to manage the expenses, if they remain deprived of admissions. In conclusion, the equal

number

of males and females in the university study is advocated by some people.

Nevertheless

, all the negative outcomes of

this

thought process are the main cause of my disagreement.
