Here's a muslim viewpoint:
(source: https://old.reddit.com/r/islam/comments/13d9ryo/can_muslim_women_go_to_free_mix_universities/jjl4wnd/)
Basically, women cannot go to university, especially if they're beautiful, because that will invariably lead to men getting horny.
Some basement dwelling redditor is your source? In actual muslim countries, such as Jordan, its mostly women who go to university: https://petra.gov.jo/Include/InnerPage.jsp?ID=57929&lang=en&name=en_news https://www.sigi-jordan.org/en/article/6498
Is Jordan the only actual muslim country?
This is a trend across much of the Middle East, with women going to university to gain what independence they can, and young men tending to get jobs early and forego post-secondary. Iran famously had the highest women-to-men ratio in STEM in the world with 70% of students being women. This trend can be seen in Iraq also and likely other countries in the middle east and north africa. In fact, its sort of a global trend that university and college populations are skewed female.
