[quote=Anonymous]It seems that in the female-dominated professions there is less push to give the professional degree a doctorate. Which speaks volumes about sexist assumptions in our society. Yes the Big Three professional degrees (JD, MD, DDS) are now roughly at gender-parity but female-dominated fields like Elementary Education, Social Work or Librarianship they say a Master's is sufficient.
