Not lucrative to whom? Your average female that isn’t that bright? Nursing is in huge demand, they hire anyone these days. I’m pretty sure I mentioned that in my initial post about this. And you’re right, when I said 80k I was thinking specializations.
“they” is a good question. I hate sounding conspiratorial so I don’t know, it is definitely a push by the media/social media… it’s coming from somewhere.
If, and that’s a big ol if, nurse start at $60-$80k where you live, why in the world do you think your observations can be extrapolated to average nurses in the U.S.?
Your problem is you pull stuff directly out of your ass and then you act surprised when everyone else with a brain doesn’t immediate go, “wow, dude, great point. I can’t believe these bitches make so much money!”
it wasn’t the point that they make so much money. the point was a broad one, that they don’t lack opportunity, and as your average male job starts to vanish (self driving cars will decimate 20million jobs for men) how will females coup with men not making as much as them? or not having those opportunities? like you said, even accounting is now being dominated by new college graduates being female.
There are about 3.2 million nurses (300k are men) and about 160 million women in the United States. That’s 2% of the female population.
There is no such thing as a “male” job. Women drive trucks. If you want to have a conversation about how we will employ people as jobs are automated / AI is utilized that is fine. I’d love to talk about that.
I never said accounting was dominated by women… Do you actually read what people write or do you sorta skim it and then respond?
More than half of undergrad accounting enrollees are men.
Agreed. However, from MY OBSERVATIONS, I don’t think women will take kindly to this. It will be interesting to see how women deal with a lot of men that can’t find decent jobs, where as most men do not give a rats ass what a woman does, professionally. Again, my opinion. No need for insults.
In a debate, conversation becomes fact-driven insofar as the people involved can make it so. When I talk about my feelings, I am comfortable with contradictions in my logic, e.g. “I know I just said he’s an asshole, but I looooove him!” When I debate a topic, whether with friends or in school or on CNN, I avoid glaring contradictions in my logic and if called on one, become embarrassed.
In·teg·ri·ty
/inˈteɡrədē/ noun
the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness.
the state of being whole and undivided.
It is important to me to practice intellectual integrity. Where I am shown to be wrong or if I’ve missed something in my thinking, I say so, and am grateful for the information. Because soundness is important to me.
if I’m wrong, or misspoke, or anything of the sort I have actually went back and said so. Repeatedly, far more than anyone else here (since you all don’t make mistakes of course).
That’s fine, that’s your opinion. I’ve got no problem with it. I just don’t agree with it. Most of the women I know are very independent and don’t want to rely on another person, particularly a boyfriend/husband, to survive.
*I also think a lot more men care that their SO does something with their life, either professionally or as a mom (potential mom). I don’t know a single guy that gets with a girl and is thrilled to support them because they look good naked. Certainly, not long-term.
I know a lot of independent women that would love for their guy to make enough money to support them haha.
the ones that are fiercely independent want a guy to at least be on their levels, but their levels (to them) are so high that they price themselves out of the market for long long long periods of time, maybe forever.
Depends on the financial situation. I don’t know 1 single man IRL, not 1 , that wouldn’t mind this if they had the financial means. How often do we see rich men swap out their talented, sometimes brilliant wives for something younger and hotter?
you’ve gotta stop saying this. You haven’t admitted to being wrong once in this entire thread. it’s disingenuous to keep saying this. You’ve got your unalterable opinions, and that’s fine. We all do.
