Women take record number of university places per BBC News

Imagine the BBC's reporting if men were more likely to go to university than women. 

Imagine the BBC's reporting if non white people were less likely to go to university than white people. 

The BBC would be apoplectic with rage and indignation, feminists and race hustlers would be invited to explain why this state of affairs was a disgrace and symptomatic of the sexism and racism inherent in the UK.

However as it's women who are much more likely to go to university than men, and non white people more likely than white, the BBC are really quite relaxed.

'Women are 35% more likely to go to university than men, the widest gap so far....

The most likely are:
women
those living in London
those from more affluent families
those in non-white ethnic groups

Those most likely to be under-represented at university are poor, white males.

White people, proportionate to their numbers in the population, are the least likely ethnic group to go to university, the admissions service says.'

You can read the whole BBC report here
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-35111772 where you can see how the BBC are very concerned with the disproportionate number of rich as opposed to poor people who go to university but much less so with the apparent disproportionate number of women as compared to men or Non-whites compared to whites. 

Odd? Not really...
