they are also disproportionately represented at the bottom echelons also.

Where are the women garbage collectors, construction workers, fishermen (one of the most dangerous jobs in the country), loggers (also up there), sewage workers, coal miners, and line repairmen?

Also why with this great privilege is jail almost exclusively a male domain and the vast majority of the homeless are male?



Women may not rise up as high as some men, but they also don't tend to sink as low either.

Feminists get furious when men are too successful but they have little problem when we are too unsuccessful.
