IELTS writing task 2
The debate that draw our attention these days is whether the candidates from both the genders should be distributed evenly in every major educational institution. Some people think it is not necessary to allocate male and female students evenly in each major, others do not agree with that. Personally, I support the former one, because of the following reasons.
To begin with, male and female students have quite different interests. Like their personality, women are soft and gentle, while men are more decisive and ambitious. That is why women are suitable to be nurses, while men are more apt to become leaders in a company or a country, such as Steve Jobs and Barack Hussein Obama. Thus, I reckon they should major in whatever they are interested.
Secondly, education should play a supporting role in one's career path, so students should be allowed to choose their ideal subject according to employment perspective rather than the equity of genders in numbers. In my opinion, the aim to go to the university is to acquire useful skill and knowledge to help ourselves to find a decent job. If one want to be a businessman, he or she is suggested to major in Business Management rather than Literature. If students are allocated to an undesirable major, they may be entangled with their future career, that could ruin one's life.
Last but not least, although I admit that it is better for students to help each other if same number of males and females study together, I still believe it is impossible to achieve utmost equal division. On the basis of statistics, currently the proportion of male and female students in China is 1:6, that means there are equal division of genders does not exist. Furthermore, the problem will be aggravated if the school reduce the enrollment requirements for male students but increase that for female students to complete their recruitment goal.
To sum up, students should be permited to select subjects freely, based on their interests and future plans.
