10. In some schools and universities, girls tend to choose arts subjects (e.g. literature), and boys tend to choose science subjects (e.g. physics). Why do you think this is so? Should this tendency be changed? Do you agree or disagree?

These days It is often argued that girls prefer to study art subjects like literature, home art, and history, whereas boys tend to take up technique-related subjects like physics, chemistry, and mathematics at the secondary and tertiary level of schooling. I completely agree and it needs to be changed so that the choice of subject is made entirely by the student’s interest. I will support my opinion with examples

Firstly

This

view is rooted so deep in our society that many females have already accepted it.

boys who are considered as future breadwinners opt for learning these courses. In developing countries, the majority of girls are still expected to become housewives to take care of the family and the idea of them pursuing a career as a medical doctor or a scientist is not much appreciated.

Therefore because

Therefore, because

of the peer pressure and social influences, many female students end up taking less demanding arts courses just to receive a degree,

that is

why females should be given a fair chance to participate in any subjects including science majors in the schools.
