Brunel University, located in Britain,
will give grants of £1,250 (approximately $2050 US) a month to 40
women studying postgraduate engineering courses.
Feminist engineering
lecturer, Petra Gratton stated "Only around a quarter of
students on engineering master's courses are women. Bluntly speaking,
that has to change if UK engineering is going to continue to compete
as successfully as it currently does. Also this Women in Engineering
Program will allow us to deeply study what is still holding back
female engineers from realizing their full career potential and the
insights we gain will be shared throughout higher education and the
engineering professional bodies." The feminist also stated
"While some may see this as positive discrimination the stark
reality is that UK [commerce] can no longer afford not to exploit
fully this enormous potential talent pool. Every British engineering
company will tell you they face crippling skills shortages and
without radical action that can only get worse."
Positive discrimination? This is code
talk from a narrow minded sexist woman. (Note: More formally these
types of women are called feminists). 'Positive discrimination' is simply another word for apartheid. The stark reality is that
Brunel University is denying men equal opportunity to advance their
education. This program allows the school to give financial aid based on gender. Thus, out of pocket education expenses will be lower for women
than men. Women will be getting paid simply to be female students.
Additionally, there is currently NOTHING stopping women from
advancing in engineering. Ms. Gratton claims that if women aren't 50%
of engineers then there is some type of discrimination. If '50%
women' defines equality then why isn't this feminist vehemently
advocating for more female child support payers? The British news
agency "The Guardian" indicates a meager 5% of child
support payers in Great Britian are women. This statistic appears
verified by the "Child Support Agency Quarterly Summary of
Statistics for Great Britain" December 2011 and also September
2013. Five percent is SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER than the twenty five
percent that Petra Gratton claims is discrimination.
Lastly, Ms Gratton is full of feminist
crap when she states British engineering companies are facing
crippling skills shortages. According to the website
Theengineer.co.uk, 10.9% of engineering and technology graduates are
unemployed. The website stated "Ask the students what the
obstacles to getting a job are, and by far the most common responses
are the lack of opportunities and the difficulty of obtaining work
experience". Ms Gratton is merely trying to justify Brunel's feminist
program of sex discrimination.
In discussing Brunel's new program,
the BBC stated the University's plan "follows growing concerns
that postgraduate study risks becoming too exclusive, with high fees
and limited funding squeezing out poorer students." If this were
true then the program would not discriminate against poor men.
Brunel's program was designed to promote female chauvinism (more
commonly called feminism).
There is little doubt Brunel
University's female payment policy will have an impact on America's
education system. Currently, US education is largely controlled by
feminist groups such as the American Association of University Women
and the National Women's Law Center. These groups routinely advocate
curriculum designed to help female students and oppose curriculum
designed to help male students. It is simply a matter of time before
these female chauvinist organizations advocate adoption of Brunel
University's female payment policy.
