>For women who work in trades, inequality is the absence of a female toilet in your workplace. Inequality is having to wear a uniform that doesn’t fit. Inequality is sexual harassment, and the absence of effective policies to deal with it.
>Inequality is being a female in a career so profoundly male-dominated that you seem innately out of place.
>Most of us, regardless of how progressive our ideas about gender are, would take notice of the presence of a female plumber, female construction worker, or a female automotive engineer. Not because we would doubt their skills, but simply because they’re so rare.
>Then there’s the “dirty” image of trades, which is culturally perceived as “unfeminine”. Thus, parents are far more likely to encourage their daughters to choose hairdressing, nursing or childcare over mining or motor mechanics.
>But even women who do choose to take up a trade apprenticeship face significant barriers.
>As a result, the rates of drop-out for female apprentices are disproportionately high. So in NSW we have women who want to take up a trade, but ultimately leave, because the issues in their workplace seem insurmountable.
OK so basically here's what we know about the eternal lib female based on this article:
-wants to project female strength by going into a trade. Fails miserably, blames men
-women frame arguments in terms of 'we' as a society, because they are weak helpless little shit creatures, but in terms of 'I' or '(female)us' when demanding something. In this way, they aren't openly blaming men with their words, but it's implied, just as a nagging overbearing wife would do
-women want money for having vaginas, and are used to getting this money for having vaginas, because we give them it
Now, what are some things we can do to fix this? Keep in mind, logic does not work, so don't come in this thread point out female logical inconsistencies. LOGIC DOES NOT WORK ON BROADER SOCIETY
