The American elite will be female
From The Week: “Women’s success in admissions isn’t only a dilemma for colleges trying to balance their books … campuses are the point of departure for female dominance of publishing, the culture industry, and areas of the corporate world — particularly the massive human resources industry. … The migration of ‘woke’ jargon from campuses to human resources divisions is annoying but not decisive. It’s more important that declining educational attainment for men means lower wages and declining marriage rates, which promote family instability. In the long run, un- or under-employed men and unstable households are correlated with violent crime. It’s not a straight causal arrow, but the dwindling share of men in higher education and the jobs it supplies could be downright dangerous.”
