You failed to include all the blue collar low-prestige jobs where men are far more common, like construction, factory jobs and warehouse work. For every profession that is low prestige and largely female, there is another profession that low prestige and largely male.

And for every high-prestige profession dominated by men, there is one dominated by women, natch.

Sounds like sarcasm? If so, it's unwarranted.

For example, clinical psychology is high-prestige and high-paying, and is dominated by women. Medical research and more generally the biosciences is another (smaller majority, though).
