<p>I get your point, but I think it’s backwards to suggest that a person can’t attend a single-sex institution and have social well-being. Does it limit your chances to meet and date the opposite sex, or at the very least force you to go more out of your way to do so? Certainly. But at the same time, there are huge social benefits to be had from women’s colleges. The security and support of the environment can provide the kind of social atmosphere that really allows people to blossom not just in college, but gives them strength of character and confidence in self for life beyond college. Not to mention that the depth and endurance of relationships you build with your fellow students has its own rewards, socially, academically, in terms of your future career prospects. </p>
<p>There’s more to social well being than how many dates a person goes on or how many significant others they have. </p>
<p>And obstinate, while introverted behavior may make it harder to make first contact, I don’t think being bookish is or should be considered to be a drawback to one’s future prospects.</p>
