I am planning on majoring in one of the human services, which is very rare for guys to major in. Guys don't have that nurturing personality that girls have and the only reason they want to go into that major is to get chicks. But the guys I do see in the human service careers are the ones that are preparing for something like business or law enforcement, or some type of emo guys that want to whine about their problems.
There are many college degrees that are traditionally for men and some that are for women. Auto mechanic is no doubt about it a "guy major" even though some girls do enjoy cars (think Danica Patrick). Then there are the women majors such as the social work major and anything related to secretarial work or customer service reps. But I think there are too many girls in these human service degrees and there is an advantage of having guys in the human service field.
When I have a problem, I rather see a guy than a girl. Girls tend to "whine along" with you and they tend to push their maternal nurtarance instincts on everyone, and it don't seem to work. They don't help you. Lets say you have a sexual life or relationship problem; I rather talk to a guy about it than a woman. I guy will tell you that "girls are bitches and deal with it" while a woman will turn it in a gossip session.
You also have another advantage of being in the human services. This is a great way to find a date and a lot of relationships begin at work. I am in classes with mostly girls, but I think I have been femimized too much. I think I need some "man time" as well so I can talk about the three subjects guys only care about: football, sex, and beer. Man time is important and I think counseling needs to be "manned up" a little bit. These whiny emo chicks are not qualified for counseling; they are just dumb sorority girls that are going into Organizational Behavior or Psych just to party. We need more guys in these type of majors.
