This is going to be my first post as a DJ in training.
The great engineering school problem is actually not only related to engineering school, but to all sorts of work and college studies in which there are no dateable women. I am a student of mechanical engineering, which has less than 10% women in it, and to top it off, it is often the case that engineering schools are colleges on their own. I'm going to give you a quick rundown on what my school is like and the town it is in so you'll get the picture.
School size : ~ 18.000 students
% male: ~70-80%
town size: ~100.000
women at other schools in the area: ~4.000 max ( I don't have any real data)
(apart from high school)
Now out of these 18.000 a large percentage is the type AFC which has no game, no interests in anything other than coding, online games, making jokes with that annoying nerd laugh (any one of you ever heard it? it drives women off faster than some bad BO) and masturbating to porn at home. So that leaves some guys here which have an actual chance of getting some tail sooner or later, you think?
No. This is due largely to the fact that college life in this enviroment does not really exist. I am not comparing this to American Pie of some other teen movie of the sort where people get drunk all day and fyck, but keep in mind that if a college party consists of 700 guys showing up and getting drunk then your chances of ever meeting a quality woman is practically nil.
In fact, I had an interesting conversation with a female student at the local educational college (which specializes in the education of teachers, ~80 female, and very small) who said that "many women do not show up any more to college parties because all these guys know and come to stare at them." Translation (this isn't hard): All these creepy desperate guys come to stare at my ass and drive me off.
What about the women at class, you say?
Well, it's true that like 30% are women, depending exactly on what you do, and they actually have some pretty good figures... like 100 lbs ... per leg. The occasional female has a really tough time, as this will show.
We had a chemistry tutorial done by a girl, about 24, who entered and then really freaked out at the amount of men there. About 2 seconds after she entered, the whistles and cat calls started (out of AFC desperation). All in all, the women there are all feminazis out to prove that women can engineer cars as well.
Nightlife? See above (college parties).
So what the heck is a DJ in training here supposed to do?
The way I see it, you can
a) man up and become a DJ and get something going for you out of the few hundred women here (my approach at the moment)
b) change careers (this will be discussed later shortly)
c) let the cougars take you (a friend of mine will probably be the next prey of one). I might add that this is the perfect enviroment for older women. (Duh)
Now it is my belief that a large part of being AFC is that many guys do not have any contact with women in "normal" surroundings, like work and school. AFCness keeps itself going because the people who go to college with you are also the people who you will be working with later on. So right now my gut feeling is that this is not a passing situation during my college years, but rather a permanent one with very little chance of escape, apart from a drastic career change perhaps.
Many of the guys here, being guys, will work in male-dominated industries and college studies. What did you do to become what you are now? (And please keep in mind the thing I said about parties and social life)
