Women Have Career Choices - For Men It's Same Old

	Roy writes "Excellent brief commentary by Cathy Young examines the �glass ceiling� theory and concludes it may in fact be that women have far greater choices to exercise than do men, partly due to women�s reliance on their male partners� lack of the same choices, dedication to earning maximum bucks, and social stigmas against men who �opt out� of the high-earning fast track."

Why don't women run the world? (Score:2) by Philalethes on Sunday November 09, @09:12AM EST (#1) (User #186 Info) An interesting start -- but I note with no particular surprise that the writer doesn't take the next, obvious, step: "Why don't women run the world? Maybe it's because they don't want to." No, it's because they already do -- they just leave the less pleasant parts, e.g. working 60 hours a week at a job you hate, to their wholly-owned front men. As they always have. Are women really so unobservant that they don't get this -- or is it The Big Secret that they desperately hope we won't catch on to?
