In some schools and universities, girls tend to choose arts subjects and boys tend to choose science subject. Why do you think this is so? Should this tendency be changed
There are certain
subjects
and fields
that have been fixed for a particular gender. In a few educational institutes, it has been a trend for girls
to select art and literature like graphics and designing, whereas
boys prefer science fields
like physics and chemistry. However
, I believe this
pattern should be altered and both genders should be encouraged and counselled to study the diversified field to have more windows for growth and progress.
Firstly
, the girls
are comfortable studying subjects
that are close to nature and are theoretical in nature, like arts, design, and fashion since they are more diverted toward nature. In addition
, above mentioned fields
demand attention, concentration, dedication, and cleanliness, and girls
are supposed to be good at them. Moreover
, science subjects
involve more practical and field research work, and often girls
are hesitant to go around and hence
prefer literature. For instance
, girls
are ranked higher in the subjects
involving theory.
However
, an ever-increasing gap between genders in the selection of fields
needs to be filled as soon as possible. Furthermore
, educating both to opt for subjects
other than traditional trends tends to promote healthy competition and provide equal opportunities. Furthermore
, in such
a way the dominance of a particular gender in a specific field would be saturated and the working environment at offices will also
be improved. For example
, the growing harassment cases being reported at offices would also
be addressed.
In a nutshell, it is for the betterment of society to uplift it via the involvement of all communities irrespective of gender, caste, and colour. Such
initiatives, though will take time but would be proved to be a fruitful aspect for the masses and future generations.Submitted by ahmed.22waqas on
