Why are women not going into S.T.E.M fields as much as men.

We always here that women only make 75% of what men make, but they only work about 50%
of the jobs that men do. Not only STEM, but also no women are working in sewers, oil rigs, etc.
these are high paying jobs. Also women are less likely to move for a job, and they are less
likely to work outside. Why do women not want to be equal to men?

I can tell you why I’m not….. I’m married and don’t wanna work with a bunch of horny men! Women that work in those fields are constantly getting hit on.

@Jstbanannas1991 Most women I know, are able to shut down men that act inappropriately.

Unfortunately many women are brought up to be the weaker sex, and they do not learn how
to shut down men. Also there are women that love the crude attention. I think you
have hit on a big problem that people have. They do not know how to stand up for
themselves. This is why the PC culture was invented. Back when I was young
we learned stick and stones. Now days we are told that words are violence, because
people are weak.

@DogMan

So right! I was never ever allowed to fight back against my older brother! He broke my right arm in four places, beat in the stomach till I couldn’t have children, beat 20% of my hearing away, and then there is this big scar in the back of my head?

Boy, if I could have gotten away with it, he would have been dog meat!
