[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women should ask themselves what the traditional male equivalent is of whatever they’re traditionally considering, and consider that instead, because it’s usually more lucrative.

Example, teacher versus tenured college professor.
Nurse versus doctor
Cosmetologist versus dermatologist
Art teacher versus engineer
Admin assistant vs program manager

Obviously these are all very different jobs, but I hope you get what I mean.

Also, women should not shy away from things or jobs with numbers in them. Data science, business analysis, finance, corporate real estate, etc. I wish as many women were interested in business school as they are law school.

Lastly, I wish more women would run for office[/quote]

What?  Most of these are absurd and not comparable.

Cosmetologist:  6 wks.  Dermatologist:  More than 10 years.

Art teacher vs engineer?  That's not even worth addressing.[/quote]

They are absolutely ridiculous. They need to have similar educations/background requirements like:

Social worker (mainly female) vs probation officer (mainly male)
Daycare worker                      vs. sanitation worker
Cosmetologist                         Vs. welder/electrician

You guys did not get PPs point. She is saying, give a choice, many women settle for the easier role in that specific industry.
