I don’t care if 100% of men are in STEM jobs, as long as the process of getting jobs is fair. Same goes the other way. I don’t care if all construction workers are men, or vice versa. Here’s why. To get a job you have to want it and apply for it. A person makes a choice based on free will to pursue a field. If women don’t wanna pursue construction, fine. If men don’t wanna become nurses, fine. As long as the process of being hired is fair for every individual, we shouldn’t give a crap how many men and women are in any field, as long as they are the best at their job. We shouldn’t have job quotas, as they guarantee jobs to a specific gender for no reason other than statistics. Just because primarily men work in STEM doesn’t mean the hiring process is unfair or gives women a disadvantage. If anything it’s the other way around. Because there’s such a push for “diversity”, women are being hired in favor of higher qualified men because employers want a certain amount of women. The last time I checked, making any decision based on race, sex, gender, or age is discrimination and is outlawed by the 14th amendment which gives everyone EQUAL PROTECTION under the law. There are also countless job discrimination acts, that apparently only apply when there are too many qualified men being employed. As such, the whole concept of gender Equity is unconstitutional and ridiculous and judges people by their gender and broad historical context and not their character and abilities.

People go where money is, and are most often unhappy in their line of work. They make choices out of desperation for survival in a capitalist economy. Putting all blame on them is disingenuous. Equality of opportunity would mean that anyone could, and would, achieve the type of job they want, and work toward.
The problem with this model is much of modern society seeing simple jobs as unworthy of a living wage. See any minimum wage or part time job, and most will argue that it's only for teens or young people who just want extra spending money (yet it's populated by people of all ages).
This is in addition to any sexism within the system. It's not a healthy setup.

Mostly definitely there is.
Men being front-of-house in food service is extremely rare. Men in any sort of caregiving position even moreso. Tons of sexism from what I've seen, and that's excluding the propensity of female coworkers to flirt and then cry foul when the guy doesn't respond how they want. Seen it happen, and not to just me. Spurn a female boss's sexual advances, and just go find another job if possible, because black-listing is a real bitch.

Lotta shitty people. I've had it happen once from spurning a female boss's advances. Never found work in that area, and had to leave.
May also have had it happen due to the last company I left, and the project manager being an open racist, as well as reporting him for wage theft. I dunno. Haven't found "work" in two years and switched over to making a go of my own business, all in a pandemic.
But yes, it's a shit tactic.
