I agree, the only job I could think of that women are physically incapable of performing was being a sperm donor.

The other professions women are not often associated with have traditionally been "off-limits" to women (up until the late 70's, jobs were segregated by gender in US newspaper want ad sections ; women could only apply for a limited number of types of jobs). Today, a number of jobs are still considered "unfeminine" by society, and girls/women have not been encouraged to aspire or train for. Even if a woman trains for a profession that not many women are in, it doesn't mean that she'll be hired or treated well if she is hired.

I can't believe someone actually said that women don't do a number of jobs because they don't want to "get dirty". If a job pays well, anyone would like the job-getting hired is another matter.

They are never allowed on professional Football or Baseball teams...they do not have the upper body strength 9as a rule) to match men in those sports. They are seldom seen in steel foundries...hot heavy work. I can not imagine a woman as a garbage collector (again, upper body strength limits them). When I see women working in men's prisons, I get rather upset. In event of prison riots those gals are really of no help and are prime targets to be taken hostage. Women in real combat units is an absurdity, although they can be excellent warriors on their own...but if ever taken prisoner or engaged in hand to hand combat...they will suffer terrible consequinces...more so than their male counterparts.

Rough necking on drilling rigs, garbage or sewer work, construction (hands on). Anything that is dirty and/or dangerous. Not to say there are none in these fields, they just prefer the cleaner but lower paying jobs like office worker, medical assistant and cashier, as a group.
