It is evident from yesterday's chart that more men than women are willing to risk work-related injury and death, though in each category there are some women.
Here's a surprising, clarifying quote from feminist Camille Paglia:
"Men are absolutely indispensable right now, invisible as it is to most feminists, who seem blind to the infrastructure that makes their own work lives possible.
"It is overwhelmingly men who do the dirty, dangerous work of building roads, pouring concrete, laying bricks, tarring roofs, hanging electric wires, excavating natural gas and sewage lines, cutting and clearing trees, and bulldozing the landscape for housing developments. It is men who heft and weld the giant steel beams that frame our office buildings, and it is men who do the hair-raising work of insetting and sealing the finely tempered plate-glass windows of skyscrapers 50 stories tall.
"Surely, modern women are strong enough now to give credit where credit is due!"
