Why am i the only guy in my hospitality class?

[SirDeadly]

I'm the only guy in my chemistry class, I think it's a good thing! (Y)

I'm a little perplexed by this fact. My old high school offers several years of a Hospitality and Tourism class (which is mostly prepping for a career as a chef) and most of the people in the class were male.

I don't know, maybe it's just an American thing. Canada has always been a bit off of American culture. Though it also could be an interest thing in your area as well.

lol not gay, most of my friends enrolled too just somehow got stuck in the other class. Also i'm in Australia
Hell my chemistry class is just 4 guys and 1 girl and my physics is 15 guys and a girl then biology is just girls.

There isn't a woman alive who thinks a man knowing how to cook is a bad thing. Although the average high school girl is a complete *****(at least it was when I went), so there is that. If that isn't an issue, and you're comfortable around girls, then it should be awesome.

Good god. Be a MAN. Take a REAL MANs class. Like, basket weaving!

What the hell is a "hostpitality class?"

Yeah, could you please clarify what a "hospitality class" entails? What do you learn in it?

I would've thought it's common knowledge.

Cooking class.

We call it Home Ec in the US, so the class name wouldn't be recognized. Then, Home Ec tends to include sewing and such, too.

Well, you couldn't have seen that coming. The people who make the classes must be idiots.

What I don't understand is how you can choose to not have chemistry, physics, biology and other stuff. I've have a lot of all those things, and everyone in my school had Home Ec.

I'm the only guy in my PE class. This semester, we're doing ballroom dancing.

You'd THINK this would be a good thing, but consider that I now have to dance with 30 girls for 2 hours about once a week.

Obviously because your school board wants you to get some pussy

Is there Chemistry with your peers? *winks teasingly ... and sort of sarcastically ... -ish*

OT: I wish my high school had had a home ec/cooking/hospitality class but nooooo, apparently men can't cook ("I call Shenanigans!").

 

[PurplePlatypus]

Two words of why this happened; gender roles.
Two words that need to be stabbed in there metaphorical face.

 

[Whitenail]

Probably because it's traditionally been viewed as an all-girls thing. You know that whole "kitchen joke" which is admittedly sort of funny when used in a clever way? Precisely.

To get into any further discussion would be to delve into gender as a whole and that's a bit of a slippery slope, on one end you've got people who want a fair go for everyone regardless of gender and individuality and on the other end you've got people spelling woman with a y and thinking girls or boys have no right to complain (beyond the "don't look a gift hore in the mouth" rule) for unwrapping the latest tonka truck or doll for Christmas respectively

So there are only two mono-gendered people in your class? Wow, no wonder you're the only guy

 

[Vryyk]

Who cares what people think? Food is delicious.

 

[SilkySkyKitten]

I must be lucky with the fact that when I took cooking class a good sizable chunk (nearly half, believe it or not) of the class consisted of other guys, though. 'Twas a fun class, too, and probably is the main reason I actually enjoy cooking.
