This is my first post in years. Been around here for almost 7 years, but this is something I never see discussed and has been bothering me more and more.

Obviously most of us here know about the diversity hiring and the very annoying fact that women aren’t expected to work as many hours or for as long.

However I have not seen anyone discuss the change in the expectations for men’s behavior after women entered fully the modern work force. A litany of new expectations that for my money, are probably a big reason for the “Trump job gender gap” let’s call it.

If you have watched any of Trump’s latest rally’s he has started poking fun at men for the fact that “60% of the new jobs have gone to women! What happened to the men? Better step it up men!” Now, the question is what is causing this 60:40 gap in the new jobs? I think men are looking less hard than women, although I suppose it is possible it is something else. But if I’m correct that men aren’t seeking work out as much as women, couldn’t it be that men aren’t looking because the more classically manly men know they won’t last very long with these new behavioral standards?

I find them to be intolerable. I actually got fired from a Men’s only homeless shelter due to my boss’ wife making the rules too unreasonable and complaining loudly about it.

Comment below about stories that support my hypothesis. Or refute it but if you do also hypothesize yourself for the reason behind the 40:60 new job percentages for men and women.
