imagine thinking nail polish is a gendered thing. unnecessary shiny adornment has no gender, if anything it\u2019s more crow than human<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Nail polish itself isn\u2019t gendered, but most people who work with their hands for a living don\u2019t want to spend money so flippantly on an ornament, that\u2019s going to be destroyed by the work being done.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You\u2019re not wrong about nail polish not being gendered, but most careers in said trades are usually dominated by men, unopposed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Imagine thinking that there\u2019s no issue with an unbalanced workforce<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

You plan on signing up for a craftsmen trade?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Howmany women do you se becoming plumbers? Electricians? Framers? Masonaries? <\/p>\n

You don\u2019t. Because it\u2019s not a sold easy job, it\u2019s serious work that almost no one wants to do.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not say I take no issues with an unbalanced workforce, it\u2019s that no one takes issue with an unbalanced work force.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When was the last time you say a push for more women in septic tank repair?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Hey guys this just in, women aren\u2019t interested in <\/p>\n

Serious Manly Work <\/span><\/h2>\n

they prefer the <\/p>\n

Easy Feminine Jobs<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Non-binary people prefer not to work at all and just drift through reality avoiding all jobs<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

CAN CONFIRM<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Fun fact: my dad actively tried to push me to become a Plummer (he was a bricky and mason by trade) because he said there was shit ton of money for women in those types of male dominated trades. After all no woman home alone really<\/i> wants a random guy to come into their house and do repairs. <\/p>\n

Now I chose not to persue that, not to keep my nail polish clean but because I\u2019m a more academic than practical person\u2026<\/p>\n

My little sister however, has just started her own \u2018handyman\u2019 business and is making a killing because my dad was right and all of her customers are women who don\u2019t want a scary guy in the house. She has Plummed in bathrooms, refit kitchens, torn down walls, replastered buildings, and yes\u2026unclogged pipes. <\/p>\n

She also has the fanciest nails I\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So much love for your sister! <\/p>\n

It reminds me oh the lady who started a mechanic shop where all the mechanics were ladies. And they had a nail salon inside so that the ladies had stuff to do while they waited.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

if i wasn\u2019t non-binary and drifting through reality i would absolutely become a plumber\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I\u2019m genderfluid which means I\u2019m constantly running between being a plummer, working at a jewelry shop, and hurtling through space<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I purposely went for an electronics field in the navy because it was male-dominated. Now I wasn\u2019t allowed to become a Tomahawk missile tech because that was an offensive weapon and at the time, women were still barred from combat, including shooting missiles at things from several hundred miles away, but I became a CIWS tech instead.<\/p>\n

I got into the electricians union apprenticeship program for about a week before they let me go, though I think that was a combo of being the only girl and the ADHD.<\/p>\n

My dad\u2019s an airplane mechanic and I considered getting into that but it never came to fruition. Started an electronics program at ITT and didn\u2019t finish that either (yay adhd).<\/p>\n

Sure, I\u2019m phone tech support now, but guess who hubby comes to if he needs something soldered (besides, it\u2019s MY soldering iron). And I can still read a damn schematic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
