Three of my close friends are women in the construction industry and my cousin is a car mechanic. My best friend who is male works as a secretary and my uncle is a nurse.

People will works on things that passionate them when they have the freedom to do so. There is no such thing as a gendered job.

I am familiar with the gender equality paradox and personally believe that it's causes are socioeconomic and not about "not having the stress" to "emulate men". Especially since Nordic countries have a higher percentage of women in parliament which I would argue is "traditionally" a man's role.

anecdotes aside

Women working in construction numbered 1.5 percent of the entire U.S. workforce

they also earn only 80℅ of the men's pay on average.

> and my uncle is a nurse.

and so was my father, for 42 years. There are cultural differences in the World, as a low payd job there is less incentive for men in USA, only 13% of nurse are men, in Italy about 30% of them is a man.

But in Italy 80% of teachers up to high school are women, for example, still today.

Because traditionally education is a women's role.

We think (or thought) they do it better.
