Sounds like you're just speculating... anyone who understands the data knows this isn't true.
The Great Recession disproportionately hit men, particularly blue collar men. Just look up the Great Mancession or look at this chart

I think a more recent source than in the middle of The Great Recession itself might be more illuminating.
- Excel_Wizard 7y agoConsidering that the sources you cite and the source your debate openent cites disagree on the facts on the ground, y'all have some work to do if you ever want to understand eachother. The source cited by your opponent claims that 80% of job losses in the recession were for men's jobs. If you analyze your sources, they disagree with this claim. Respond to that if you care to make any progress.
