				"Womanly arts" like cooking, sewing, knitting, playing hostess and shit are fun to engage in, now that we aren't limited to them and them alone. But unfortunately, some still believe that we are. This fall, the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Texas added a "homemaking" concentration to its curriculum, reports the <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/front/la-na-homemaking11oct11,0,1284632.story?page=1&track=mostviewed-storylevel">LA Times</a>, which is all well and good, as those skills can totally be useful in everyday post-collegiate life. However, the classes are open only to women.<blockquote>The academic program includes lectures on laundering stubborn stains and a lab in baking chocolate-chip cookies. [It] will allow women to get credit toward bachelor's degrees by learning how to set tables, sew buttons and sustain lively dinnertime conversation.</blockquote>				<a href="http://jezebel.com/309790/jesus-loves-you-wants-you-barefoot-in-the-kitchen" title="Click here to read more about Jesus Loves You, Wants You Barefoot In The Kitchen">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
