Women between the ages of 25 and 34 continue to be more likely than men in the same age group to have a bachelor’s degree. The gender gap in bachelor’s degree completion appears in every major racial or ethnic group, though the size of the gap varies widely.

    I found this interesting [emphasis in original]:

    men without a bachelor’s degree were more likely than women to say they just didn’t want to get one. In turn, women without a bachelor’s degree were more likely than men to say they couldn’t afford a four-year degree.

      I can definitely see a lot of people who can’t afford college reporting that they just don’t want a degree, because that saves face over admitting that you can’t afford it.

      That is interesting. I wonder what the 25-29 cohort would look like (thinking of the flat growth top left).

      In general should a gap be expected given the wider opportunity for men in trades?

    And yet there is a party that still says they should vote along the same lines as their dumbass husbands. In my country we have the same trend, yet the educated women still subject themselves to marrying nutjobs who impose misogynistic religious laws on their freedoms and liberties. Yay.

        My comment was removed for the reason “Troll” (and that’s fine if the mod interpreted it that way) but I am extremely disappointed in us men lately. The asinine things we say and do is maddening. I’m more than happy for women to take the lead in society for a couple hundred years. We could learn a thing or two from them.
