I mean, I can't even believe I'm having to defend this.
So we have gone from you saying that you don't believe that discouragement exists, to you saying that you actually support it.

Is it appropriate for faculty at BYU to be discouraging MEN from entering professions?
If I went to a professor and told him my plans, I would hope that they would do for me just what they have done: give me candid advice, warn me of potential negatives, and do all they can to support me in whatever decision I make. I'm not a woman, but as I have talked with women at BYU, they have told me that they have had more or less the same experience I have.
You just are not understanding the distinction I'm making. I'm not sure how to make it more clear. I apologize for the deficiency in my communicative abilities.
