A certain criteria is set in any university to determine whether a student is accepted in a subject or not, this criteria involves factors such as the grades of the student, the date he registered for that subject, the class capacity and many more. However factors such as the age, gender and race of the student are not taken in consideration at all. On the other hand some people believe that every subject should have an equal amount of female and male students.

In my opinion accepting the students or not should be solely based on their skills, knowledge of the subject and their competence, not their gender. The traditional way of thinking that men exceled in certain types of jobs, while women exceled in other jobs has proven to be just a myth, for example the best chefs in the world are male chefs not female ones, unlike the typical stereotype that women are better in cooking than men. Also a lot of females serve in the army now days in countries such as America and Israel and have shown a great success in them, so it is fair to say that men and women should be treated equally and no discrimination should be allowed whether it is a positive or a negative discrimination.

In addition to that such idea would invoke a lot of problems, some people would demand that the class should be divided according to the ethnic origins of the students, while others may want to divide it with respect to the student’s ages, or even by the religion that the students follow.

To sum up in the end, students should not be treated according to their gender, they should be treated in the same behaviour and manner, and the idea of dividing the class is very illogical and would be inconvenient to the society we live in.
