Gender Gap

From Conservapedia

Agender gap usually refers to the differences in educational attainment by men and women, though it can have different meanings in different contexts. Additionally, in politics, this may refer to the real or perceived view that the two sexes have differing views on certain political issues.

In Education

The differences between the sexes, while not immense, are easily seen in education.

Title IX

An apparent gender gap is one reason cited for Title IX funding in schools, to provide greater access for female students to sports, sporting venues, and competition. Title IX bans institutions with any amount of federal funding from discrimination on sexual grounds.

College

In recent years, women have gained considerably in college. For example, in 1970, merely 42% of college students were women; in 2010, about 60% were women.^[1] While this may show a bias towards women in the admissions process, the change seems reflects more the later median marriage age ^[2] and women's national shifting of priorities from raising families to obtaining better jobs and careers.^[3]
