- nessus42 14y agoAnd these job vacancies are gender-specific? If the 50 job vacancies must then be filled by 50 single women, then yes we now have a lot more single women in the Big Apple. If they can be filled by 25 single women and 25 single men, then the single men:women ratio is still 1:1. I guess I might buy the argument that the vacant jobs might go to 30 women and 20 men, which would back up your point.
- weeksie 14y agoYeah, I probably should have expanded. Those jobs are often in fashion, journalism, and other fields that have a higher female to male ratio.
