City girls more adventurous as compared to guys!!!

That’s what The Mumbai Mirror had to say a few weeks back. Reasoning? Statistics show that 20% more girls have opted for unconventional branches as compared to their male counterparts who went for more tested branches such as engineering, medical etc.

Well, even a 5th standard kid can object to the statement saying 20% means nothing as far as we don’t know 20% of what. Let us exempt this slip-up of “India’s COMMERCIAL capital’s” daily. Does it still make any sense? The question is whether your take “adventurous” as a credit or a discredit.

I strongly feel it to be foolish for somebody to opt for something strange just out of a spirit of adventure. Decisions that affect one’s future can’t be guided by an exploratory upsurge.

Why should I give up an engineering degree for one (not sure if I can call it a degree at the first place) in dog training or shoe designing! Yes that’s what they call adventure.

It seems, when it comes to printing 48 pages of junk, this all that people can find. Talk about statistics!
