This is a letter to the editor out of BYU's newspaper, "The Daily Universe". My friend who is currently in the program sent me the link, and I just had to share it. It is true that in an all-girls major some girls become quite flirtatious with the only male in the class, but honestly, it's BYU and they all know he's married! Anyways, I can't believe this girl had the audacity to put this in the newspaper, and shouldn't she be talking to her husband about his behavior in response to the flirting (which probably isn't flirting at all, just girls being nice, and a jealous wife misinterpreting).
Anyway, here it is...
All-female major
To all of the scientifically inclined men out there: apply to the dietetics program — it’s an all-female major at our campus. Well, except for my husband. Because of this, I have an inside perspective on just how starved some of these women are for male attention, even married male attention. They will all know your name and they will make sure to say “hi” to you without fail every time they see you, no matter whose company you may be in. They will make cute (albeit discriminatory) jokes about you being the only one of your sex in the program (e.g. “okay girls ... and (insert male name here)!”), followed by, and precipitating, profuse giggling. They will even go so far as to feign their inability to do something simple, such as remembering the code for a door, (or even assistance in opening said door) just so they can take advantage of and bask in your glorious masculinity that they are so starved for.
Warning: do not apply for this major if you are married or engaged — all of the above will take place even if you are married, even in the presence of your wife. Granted, maybe she’d be tough enough to handle the above, along with countless other instances of blatant rudeness, but I’m afraid she’d have to be a woman on their level — raised with a complete absence of propriety, respect, manners and self-control. To all of the women currently sharing the dietetics program with my husband: Please show some understanding and consideration for us, and think about how you would feel if your husband was in an all-female major and about how you would want him and yourself to be treated.

Holy cow!! Seriously, that lady HAS some issues with herself and with her relationship. I feel sorry for her. And couldn't help but laugh a little.
Adrienne.. are you sure you didn't flirt viciously with some dudes on your dietetics class. Since all the girls there don't have self control and are apparently totally evil. Hello...! ;)
(BTW, I also commented the previous post. Just in case you don't happen to check it.)
I agree with Ansku, totally crazy girl. Alan has a lot of female friends in his classes, he even shares an office with a girl but it doesn't bother me that much. Mostly if I feel jealous it is because I feel he spends more time at school than with me, but that is just how school is sometimes. Alan has a couple of classes he teaches and in one review he got from a student she kept talking about how hot he was and how she wanted to go out with him. We just laughed about it and I joked around like I was jealous.
Wow, I was just thinking back that I've forgotten codes to get in doors... does that mean I'm flirting? Oh, and when I was at Gap the other day I waited for a man to open the door for me and Austin... Man, his wife must be ticked.
Sounds like this wife needs to get a hobby!
