Some of these are actually things more colleges should offer. The number of people I’ve seen who can’t manage their finances or cook is fucking insane. I can even get behind the clothing, baking and home management courses.

It’s bullshit it’s being hoisted on women in such a way, but still I think at least two of them should be mandatory.

Home Ec used to be high school stuff. Should be again but insurance (and likely funding, as usual) fucked that up.

Home Ec and Shop were fun classes and I think everyone should get to do both!

I mean, this "degree" is stupid as hell, but it's not being hoisted upon anyone; you know exactly what you're getting into when signing up for a marriage and motherhood degree. It's just effectively a scam.

I know more colleges did used to offer home ec - I remember taking a history class in a building that had been used for that purpose, and I was at a state school.

It’s not unusual to have “health” classes that do involve some meal planning/learning recipes - I’ve tutored both high schoolers and college kids who’ve had those classes. The college version seems to typically be online though, which is of limited use.

I’d love to take the clothing construction classes. It’d be fascinating to compare a votech sewing course versus an art school fashion design course versus this.
