Re: One predominantly female vocation
[feminist rant]
Ha! Yes, lets call nursing, child care and teaching vocations things people do for love, and so we don't have to pay them decent wages... unlike careers, or professions, things people chose to do, for both love and money!
in the not too distant past, woman were, to a large degree, limited to these professions, unless they had independent money, or strong family support. But men were free to have careers and professions.
