Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Men who choose traditionally female-dominated careers tend to be more interested in working with people, according to research. This may be because these careers often involve caregiving, nurturing, and communication skills, which are often considered feminine traits. There is no evidence to suggest that they are more focused on social status or have more conservative social attitudes. There is mixed evidence on whether they are more gender-typed in their personal lives, as some studies suggest that they may be more likely to adopt traditionally feminine gender roles outside of work, while others have found no significant differences.
