Is it necessarily misogynistic, though? At the population level, women’s degrees are worth less than men’s because women more often exit the job market to raise children. If someone wants to do that - and I 100% stand behind that being a valid and important decision, for either sex - then college debt would be a very poor financial decision. I’m not convinced it’s a systemic problem, but it would be interesting to see default rates broken down by gender.

The comment was, yes. First, it isn't a problem that is specific to women in any way, shape, or form. Second, it paints women as only existing to find a mate, and this is hampering that. Why should women be singled out in this? They should be able to explore their intellectual side as well.
