I work in a machine shop that does do most of the labor. Women still avoid it.
I don't like it either. It's noisey. And I have two broken fingernails.
If you even watched 1/4 of the way into the video in the OP, it would explain that. Women have difficulty separating out noises. Noisy environments are stressful because you hear all the noises, all at once. Men have the ability, even from a young age, of shutting out repetitive noise in a way that women can't.
I haven't finished the video, but I will when I have time.
I have two boys, I homeschool so I can be aware of it, but these things concern me with most teachers being female:
- The way boys draw is different
- The way boys play is different (for all mammals, not just humans) and is often considered inappropriate at school.
- The way boys hear is different, they are much more often labeled "inattentive" when they hear differently.
I'm not even that far into the video, and I can see how being a boy has the ability to earn you unfair treatment in school. I can tell you, my daughter is the IDEAL student. She sits still, waits in line, waits with others, learns names and faces well, just perfect. My son wriggles, has difficulting staying in line if it's still (has little problem if it's moving), etc. Part of it is that they are different, and part of it is that expected behavior in school, is expecting everyone to have girl behavior.
