Why Men Leave Female-Dominated Professions
<p>Irecently ran across <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@brittanybeen/video/7300393351713492266?lang=en" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">this video</a> of a TikTok user and architecture grad student talking about the gender flight phenomenon.</p>
<p>I’d never heard of gender flight before, but she describes it as the gendered version of white flight: when white people tend to leave communities and spaces once Black people move in, and the subsequent lowering of home values in that neighborhood.</p>
<p>Gender flight happens when women enter a particular profession long seen as male-dominated or “for men.” But <a href="https://phys.org/news/2023-01-men-occupations-women.html" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">once enough women are there, the men tend to leave</a>, and the average pay for the average employee in that field goes down.</p>
