| the 100 year time frame is completely bogus For example women in Europe, especially east Europe, were hired to program computers back in the 50s and 60s because it was considered a job for typists, which were mainly women. Some men were scientists, some were engineers, teachers were highly regarded, but most of them worked horrible jobs in farms where women were never seen, because the job required physical skills and also because men were through they had to provide for the family. Nobody has ever seen a woman in the European mines, it makes sense though. Families paid the toll watching their men dying of silicosis and other horrible diseases. Women got more comfortable job as nurses,because society decided they are natural born caretakers, where the few men in power sometimes abused of them. So please don't make assumptions based on some modern propaganda, things are much more complex than they look. Unless you're from the ruling class, we are all largely in the same boat in the end. Besides, hiring a woman this way, assuming the story is true, is not exactly morale boost material. |
At least in the U.S., both major political parties will do everything in their power to prevent the majority of people from realizing this.
