Title: Doing "Women's Work": Men in Nontraditional Occupations
Description: United Kingdom, Sage Publications. 1993, Edition Unstated. (ISBN: 0803953054) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. "Studies the effects on the men in nontraditional roles, on their views of masculinity, on the occupations and on the women they work with. Do men get preferential treatment in these positions? Do they receive higher salaries? Or are they treated the same as their women colleagues? Through a series of statistical and demographic analyses, as well as case studies of men in professions such as teaching, secretarial work, care-giving and stripping, the contributors give a glimpse of the role of these men in bolstering or undermining the gendered assumptions of occupational sex segregation in the workplace." CONDITION 195 pages, unworn and unread copy. As New/N/A.
