Gender Roles

I was reading this wikipedia article and it said that language and literature are "academic disciplines generally more associated with women"

WTF? this the first I've heard of it.

Different genders like different things. Women are better at empathising, so they prefer courses that are more people based (in lit they read books and talk about the characters). By contrast men are more systematic and prefer processed based courses (such as mechanics, where you build things).

However just because men and women prefer different courses does not meant they are any good at either.
