خدلك عاد: الطالبات يتفوقن في التوجيهي هروباً من أعمال المنزل
برر وزير التربية والتعليم الأردني فايز السعودي ردا على سؤال لأحد الصحفيين تفوق الفتيات في امتحان شهادة الدراسة الثانوية العامة (التوجيهي) بأنهن يجدن التوجيهي فرصة ممتازة للتخلص من أعمال المنزل. من بين 61 طالب وطالبة هم أوائل الثانوية العامة في الأردن هناك 53 إناث مقابل 8 ذكور فقط.

There is a very good explanation: Men in general feel that no matter how hard your try,work or study, your salary will not be worth it to start a family,buy a house,provide for your kids.
Men are underattack all over the world. Put women back in the kitchen,unemployment and frustration will go.
Men work and get food,women take care of the country by raising the kids. This is not sexist.
Science is a man oriented knowledge,even now,top scientist ,even chefs,haridressers, bosses, company managers,industrials are men, not because the workplace is biased,but that how their brains works.
Feminism has screwed up the world.

Men in general take every thing for granted. Men think that because they are men then a good job and a good salary will be their own. In the modern world the labor market has places for males as females.
Raising kids is a shared responsibility, exactly as work is both a shared responsibility and a shared right. Who ever came up with the idea that women are responsible for raising the kids? Women are MORE indulged in raising kids because of some practical tasks that men are not designed to do, like feeding, bathing, dressing, but this does not mean that the responsibility is only women’s!
Both men and women share the responsibility of the family as a whole. Both men and women are responsible for ’3emarat al 2ard’, building of the world.
Science is not a man oriented knowledge. Women have not been given the chance to excel in science because man have always requested her to sacrifice her passions for the sake of the family, because he does not want to help her in this burden.
However, politics, for example, and history, are both man oriented sciences. MEN wage wars. MEN oppress others. MEN torture. MEN make armies. MEN fake history. MEN lie at their nations. MEN cause devastation. All of the dictators of the history were nothing but MEN.
Am I right or not here?
Besides, going back to the Tawjihi case, no, women do not prosper because they want to escape their home duties. Women excel because they have to do effort to earn whatever they want to earn, whether a good job, a good living, a good husband… etc. Women have to work for every thing, unlike men, who expect every thing to come to them just because they are men.

Women have been given the chance to excel in science.
For 30 years now or more in the West, feminisim prevailed. And the result? Still, women excel in tasks like objectifying herself or creating very shallow TV shows and promoting befriending gay men….
The number of female university students, even in Saudi ARabia and all over the world is more than men (well documented fact).
Men are not better than woman, it is just that,blame it on natural selection if you are an athiest or God if you are relgious, that certain things come hardwired. Stop refusing your reality and stop leaving in agony, you are awesome,better than men, just get over with it and live happily.
Yes, men are very dumb and creul, and some men are very wise and peaceful.
Considering the article, I found the comment to be very silly (they studied hard to avouid the kitchen…..funny neverthless…)
