The author makes a good point about how dating dynamics vary based on gender balance. There was a recent study that showed how much more power men have in the dating/hookup scene when there are more women, and how much less women like/trust men under these circumstances. Even if women are put at a disadvantage in the admissions process, there may be a net benefit to women (who end up attending) because they have more power in the dating market.

gender wars! Count me out... there is toxicity on both sides. Glad I am not dating

Trump in title articles should just be banned at this point.

Is it mitigated where the article is a discussion of coverage of Trump, rather than just ranting (in either direction)? This article was pretty nuanced, IMO.

I had a Trump-blocker extension enabled in Firefox, but it prevented me from grabbing graphics off the internet for my clever memes, and about half the internet.

I can't be like Chamberlain and say it's a nothing-burger. That nothing-burger cost millions of lives, and this party is just getting started.
