Pink collar positions are office jobs that have been dominated by women for the past 70 years or so–secretary, receptionist, administrative assistant, scheduler, etc.

In my life, I’ve only ever met a single man who worked as a receptionist in a medical office.

Recently in a thread about AI showing bias against job applications, someone mentioned male names being thrown in the discard pile for women’s positions.

If you’re a man who is in the field OR has tried to get into it, what’s your experiece been?

    Great points! The mastery of a craft is often only bestowed on men in those types of careers.
