Personal Response to a Question


Paragraph C presents the idea of male flight and states, “The women pour in …and the men drain out.”What does this mean? Why might this be happening? Do you think gender inequality will be reversed, or will it find a balance?
1-Pour in:
According to the article this word means that women continue to get these jobs that men loss of interest in them.
Drain out:
Means that men are leaving or losing interest in some jobs, which makes women pour in them.

2- I do not know for sure why men are leaving some kind of jobs. However, it might be the reason behind that is some jobs are boring for them or the benefits of these jobs are not up to desire, which makes them looking for better opportunities that market can offer. In some case, some men as known like to take a risk so they may quit to start their own business. That is not easy to find the reason behind the drain-out but also I think women have a clear role in the way they present themselves as competitors in job market.   

3-I think gender inequity will some day find a balance especially nowadays women are educated and aware of their contributions in the community and society as well.
