Probably should compare to trade schools. Unless they are are part of the data.
The push to get people back in trade jobs has been more for cis men I think. There is a lot of subconscious assumption by most cis people that women can’t do trade work. Least where I have been from. You still don’t see a lot of women mechanics and what have you and if they are going into those fields you still have to fight tooth and claw so you really have to want it.
Least this is from casual observation from my areas. Could be wrong.
nobody is interested in keeping them there, while efforts to correct historical inequities are working (to some extent) and the attrition rate for other groups would be as bad or worse without those, and the attrition rates for marginalized people would be better if the remaining institutional bigotry was finished being rooted out.
In addition to this lack of motivation I think post-secondary is also the first place a lot of privileged white men face push back on any of their ideas and opinions from both teachers and peers, particularly women and this combo makes them just go ‘uh college is for woke scolds and it makes you gay anyway so I knew better’
I’d guess education. Women are more educated than ever so they are less religious than ever. 🤷

In other words this
Seems explained by this

Why are white men such losers in college? I’m curious about the reasons for this
Seems like it’s just men across the board. Unless I’m missing something.
I think women are just realized to be a lot more studious and disciplined 🤷

They are pretty much at the top of the privilege pyramid, so what used to be the upward mobility machine isn’t all that crucial for them.

The “I’m a cool dropout entrepreneur” mythos
It really is this more than anything else. So many silicon valley success stories start with them dropping out of college.
