It's also worth noting that careers like teaching were once highly respected and well-paying fields dominated by men. However, once women became more dominant in the field, the career as a whole lost both respect and pay essentially overnight. Nothing about the job itself changed, only the dominant gender.
It's honestly disgusting that people still try to defend this misogyny as some kind of physiological thing.
