Soon women will rule the world
That seems to be the gist of the new Atlantic headline article, anyway:
| quote: | | Earlier this year, women became the majority of the workforce for the first time in U.S. history. Most managers are now women too. And for every two men who get a college degree this year, three women will do the same. For years, women’s progress has been cast as a struggle for equality. But what if equality isn’t the end point? What if modern, postindustrial society is simply better suited to women? A report on the unprecedented role reversal now under way— and its vast cultural consequences |
Trends detailed include more women in management, girls finishing most levels of school quite a bit more than guys, and preference for girl over boy babies in several countries. The thought process runs that girls are generally more stable and conscientious in their work, so they will do the best in the new information economy, which requires reliability more than daring, social cooperation more than striking out on your own, and certain mental qualities more than physical strength. The future belongs to you, ladies.
