Women To Head Workforce First Time Since WWII
With the recent layoffs and men getting laid off at a higher rate than women, economics experts are predicting that women may become the majority of the American workforce as early as this summer.
According to the New York Times, it’s possible that women will become a majority of the work force for the first time in American history. Years ago, women were a small percentage of the work force (outside the home). During much of the 20th century – especially the 1970s and 1980s – women’s share of the labor force increased. By 1990, the work force was 47 percent female and 53 percent male, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Many view this as one of the most important and desirable social and economic transformations of our lifetimes.
Why your co-workers act like children.
As much as we love our sisters, we love variety in the workforce.
Tell us! Do you prefer working with men or women?

To not be sexist, but when the women start bringing home the bacon then the hirer the single parent and broken home rate rises. Do a study on that.
But i really dont care you dont need any study to know that. Just look at colleges. The make of the college now is 65% women 35% men. And female are taking more business and science courses and men are taking more technical and trades.

I didnt know if I should say this earlier but I feel I should.Once women make up most of the work force men will be free to do other things.Which makes me think its a major war coming.

It dosent matter to me if I work with men or women.I think jobs should be available to anyone thats qualified.I worked with mixtures and either or and got along fine.I love people in general.
One thing about women is that they like to gossip alot.They fight and argue more too(just the way women are}.It dosent bother because im normally to busy doing something.But sometimes I have to mediate.
One thing I think should be understood is that men naturally create a world for women and children.Its only logical that most work enviroments are designed to cater to the needs of women.So,women are going to get and hold jobs more easier than men for that reason.Check out the gender balance of the workforce in Russia(Which once was a super power like the U.S.).
Something else that has to be thought about is that its only a limited amount of jobs.Everyone will never be able to work at same time. It all plays together as the more women that work the less men will be able to(so women you cant complain anymore about a man not having a job).
Also what happenned in the 60s needs to be understood.Its cool to me women have more power because of it.Something women have to understand about this is that nothing is magic so,the power that was gained had to come from somewhere.This means that a man is no longer obligated to provide for a woman and or a family.It became a choice at that point.
It works out in a way.Women like to have all of the power in a relationship.Money=Power.More power=more responsibility.This just needs to be accepted.
Im not sexist.Im just honest.So think about it.
