Tough. It's not anti-education, it's just an awareness of what goes on in our universities nowadays...and has been for some time.

You may dislike how individualism leads to opinions alien to you. But, whilst not directing the comment at you, individualism is actually the curse to the male anti-choice position.

Which has what to do with my statement? Or are you somehow claiming "individualism" as solely a liberal trait? If so, that's nonsense.

I've already told you. Education has numerous positive effects, from the ability to construct argument to the gains from improved labour market outcome (i.e. whilst you may prefer a conspiracy theory over education, employers realise the human capital gains). It provides women with choice and therefore celebrates individualism. Its something that is typically quite disagreeable to anti-choice males

And I've already told you it has nothing to do with "education" and everything to do with personal agendas of liberal college profs.

And that is quite inconsistent with the evidence. We know that education leads to substantial labour market gains. That reflects the true nature of education: the delivery of knowledge and therefore human capital.

Uh, OK.

Is this an admittance of how your position is inconsistent with the evidence or a simple refusal to accept the comment's content?

You can take it any way you like.

A non-answer is a show of weakness. That's the way I'll take it, thank you.
