Critics of federal funding for gender studies argue that these programs often promote views that are inconsistent with traditional values and beliefs.

Supporters of this view also emphasize the need for fiscal responsibility. They argue that federal funding should be allocated to programs that provide clear, practical benefits to students and society. They contend that gender studies programs do not meet this criterion and that resources would be better spent on programs with more tangible outcomes, such as STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education.

However, others argue that gender studies play a crucial role in understanding and addressing social inequalities. They assert that these programs offer valuable perspectives on issues related to gender, identity, and social justice, which are essential for fostering a more inclusive and equitable society. They believe that cutting federal funding for gender studies would limit academic freedom and diversity of thought in higher education.
