You are 100% wrong on the second point, there is plenty of effort to get men into traditionally female jobs like nursing and teaching:

Still, it's not nearly as much as the reverse campaign. I have never received any messaging through media etc. about such a campaign. It exists, in theory.

Outside of HN (and sites linked to from HN), I've never seen a media push to get women into STEM either.
