in schools and universities, some girls tend to choose arts subjects, while boys choose to study science subjects. What are the reasons? Do you think this trend should be changed?

In educational institutions, some girls prefer the

arts

-related subjects over

sciences

, whereas boys select the

sciences

over

arts

.

This

is particularly the case where some girls think that pursuing an

arts

degree

is much easier than a

science

degree

.

However

,

this

trend should not be changed forcibly by others. On the one hand, some women think that getting a

degree

in art group involves less effort as compared to

sciences

. With an

arts

degree

, they can choose a wide range of jobs as compared to

sciences

.

For instance

, in countries like India, some female students prefer to take up

arts

and choose a career

that is

less demanding and which allows them to spend more time with their families and

also

supplement their family income.

Also

, as the job is less demanding they can spend time on other interests like music, knitting, dancing etc.

On the other hand

, men go for

science

subjects for getting a rewarding and high paid job.

For example

, the

science

jobs offer more compensation as compared to other jobs and

this

is essential for the men as they are the sole breadwinners for their families.

However

, these preferences are subjective and keep changing based on the other factors too.

Also

, in the recent two decades, we have ladies and gentlemen pursuing both

arts

and

science

subjects based on their interest.

This

is due to the increasing job opportunities both in

arts

and

sciences

. In summary, some ladies prefer to take less stressful courses in

arts

as compared to

sciences

.

Nevertheless

,

this

situation must be maintained unless the girls have a different choice.
