The equivalent would be Social Studies and it would be the run by the left and feminists in general ... anyhow at school level it is the filler subject that gets dropped by the ones going for uni in there last two years. Dump subjects like that also get the dump teachers(Yes Dear, I know you have a degree in Political Economics... but that is Social Studies for adults)... the hardcore subjects get the better teachers. Heck I learnt more about social studies and life from my woodwork teacher... nothing beats a teacher who sets a great example about hard work and keeping an open mind... his opinion was that travel was the best school of all.
