The girls included in this study are those being influenced in their state of emotion and behaviour for spending most of their time and school days in a male-dominated setting, often times of being one of those only few females in their academic classes. We came to this study to know the effects in such said minority have on the females ‘academic performance’, school’s profile and also on the development of their socialization skills towards others. The study would also look on the females’ psychological state specifically on the themes that may emerge on their thoughts, feelings and experiences regarding to their consciousness for being in a classroom where male dominance is present. The intended research is served to explore what effects this trend has on females’ overall attitude and character specifically towards their actions done inside the campus. This may have relevance for future researches. This study also describes their experiences in a manner that would be beneficial to others. Finally, the research aims to understand the female student’s sides when they are in the minority, which they may feel inhibited to freely communicate their needs, thoughts, and aspirations which focuses on connections of gender equality inside a male-dominated classroom through getting the perceptions of the female students as the participants and greatest beneficiaries of the study. The result and findings of this study will contribute to the awareness on matters regarding gender differences and its impact especially on the affected one’s study.
