Or really a problem with seeing women as anything but either ungrateful servants or caring mommies. In another female-designated profession, library science, men actually run into something called the "glass floor" where they find it difficult to stay a librarian because the institutions they work for keep trying to promote them into management or administration.

I mean, yes, a lot of "low status" jobs are dominated by women, and this is an unfortunate pattern, but I don't think the gender is driving the status, or the attrition problems?
