An International Study has shown that
¤ The number of girls who are studying maths as the subject of higher studies is very small compared to the number of boys.
¤The number of boys who go for Higher Studies in Biology is very small as compared to that of girls.
A number of reasons can be given for this –such as -
¤Parental Expectations
¤The fashion of the day
¤Lack of pressing need to go for an immediate job even if it is not glamorous
¤The Social Needs of Caring for a family which a career conscious man is always skipping – expecting the mother to take care of the children.
These are a few!! And the reason that – Biological Difference is the Cause , doesn’t hold water.
The reason is “Our” thoughts. Our Society and approach.
