3. The labor market is brutal for men.

Edited on Thu Mar-24-11 05:30 PM by lumberjack_jeff

The statistics show women displacing men in the workplace.

Organizations such as AAUW publish studies showing that women's pay lags behind men, but the pay lag is manifest only for people who are actually employed. The guys who are unemployed? Although his salary of zero would more than make up the difference... they don't count. For three decades, discouraged working-age men have become unemployed then left the workforce altogether.

For the first time in three years, men are finally beginning to return to work.
