Comment on What is the equivalent stereotype of 'women should all be homemakers,' for men?

  Because in general men are good with things and women are good with people. There’s a good reason the vast majority of construction workers, mechanics and engineers are men and it not (only) because women aren’t welcome on those fields.

      No, you’ve been brainwashed.

      This is how productive your reply was. Are you going to elaborate or you here just to throw shit? Just telling someone they’re wrong isn’t exactly going to make them change their mind about it.

        I don’t care of you change your mind… You are likely too far gone to think anything but man=labour, women=feels

      Check out the actual statistics on what women and men choose an occupations when both people-related and non-people-related jobs are otherwise equal. Therese quite a bit of evidence that men and women tend to prefer occupations in one or the other category.

      Honestly, looking at how different men and women are physically, it is slightly absurd to assume that they are identical psychologically (i.e. have the exact same preference regarding people-oriented vs. Technical occupations).

    I think that’s a massive over-generalisation to be honest. Women are just as capable as any of those things.

    I’m not sure why you would want to look down on people who don’t know how to do a thing, but at least do it equally.

      Ofcourse it’s a generalization. I’m speaking of all men and women as groups. This isn’t about individuals.

      If you pick random 100 men and random 100 women from the population and give them the task of building/fixing something the men are going to perform better every single time.

  Cause in thier minds why is she not in the kitchen pertpually doing chores. Women aren’t people to them. Took so much effort just to give women the right to vote.

  All my best workers in shop and on site have been women, hands down. No egos; they listen and learn super-fast; they take great pride in acccomplishment and quality; they don’t tell me how their dad did it or that they’ve “just always done it this way”.
