And likewise, are there more initiatives to get men into jobs that are more heavily skewed towards women?

Not as strongly, but there is demand for male nurses - they need stronger people to help move people around, and men are stronger. (biological facts, etc)

But does the people-mover have to be a nurse? Can't you just hire a cheap, uneducated muscle-man to move your people?

"people movers" made me laugh.

You could, but might face liability. Also, perhaps not a full time job but also not easy to schedule. So you'd be paying someone to sit around 90% of the time.
