I think Tex is asking a fair question. I don't know that a woman being educated and also being a homemaker are mutually exclusive. I don't know, but I wouldn't assume that there is a 1:1 ratio between an increase in female enrollment and females in the work force, though I do assume they correlate.

I also think many (most?) women with the aptitude to go to college now do so without regard to, and probably not knowing, whether they will ever enter the work force or for how long. I know an awful lot of highly educated women who worked for a time, quit to raise their kids, and then went back to the work force or plan to.

I personally believe that raising ones own children is a very high calling if the family can afford it, and that education is a crucial to that job as any.
