And if you look specifically at the category the Times chose — occupations that are 70% female or more — the percentage of men in those occupations increased, but only from 5.0% to 6.1%. And nurses? In 2010, 0.4% of all full-time year-round working men were nurses, up from 0.3% in 2000. Women are still 11-times more likely to be nurses than men. Now that’s what you call a “gradual erosion of gender stereotypes.
Women’s full-time wages at all-time high 82.2% of men’s… Because men’s wages fell more last year. http://t.co/fA40Rrnf
My only beef with the story is that it misidentifies the richer sex. http://familyinequality.wordpress.com/2012/03/22/the-richer-sex-is-men/
