- rarec 10y agoCould it not also be said that societal pressures push men towards tech and other high stress/paying work?
- nucleardog 10y agoIf you look at any list of "most dangerous jobs", it's invariably a list of male-dominated professions. Are men going into these roles because they all have a death wish, or is it maybe some sort of cultural push to be "manly" and a "provider"?
