While it's true that there are male prostitutes, it's not even remotely as common as female prostitutes. Any female can let guys pay her for sex and men will line up to give her money. Men have a hard enough getting women to want to have sex at all, let alone who will PAY money for it. So in a way, the prostitution business is off-limits to men by the fact that women aren't nearly sex-crazed enough to pay a guy for sex and men are too sex-crazed to not simply want to have sex for free. In this same way, being a stripper is also sort of off limits to men. Again, like prostitutes, there are male strippers. But they are rare. Female strip clubs, on the other hand, are everywhere. Any decent looking girl can become a stripper and have guys throwing tons of money at her simply for showing her natural body.
While strippers and prostitutes aren't exactly occupations that most women look up to, they are still (at the very least) last resort options that a woman can turn to through which she is guaranteed to make a LOT of money. If a man is struggling to get by in life, he doesn't have the luxury of becoming a stripper and LETTING women pay him to simply look at his body.
Other than those negatively-viewed jobs, though, there really doesn't seem to be any obvious jobs that are off-limits to men. Although there are some jobs that, if a man has it, he will have to suffer through accusations of being gay. Like if a straight guy happens to enjoy fashion design, he will automatically be assumed gay. That might be enough of a put-off for some guys to make them consider such jobs off-limits.

Men are better than women. If there are jobs that are off-limits to women it's because you're just so lame you can't do them. Your other questions on here or the fact you are so insecure you have to block anyone with an opposing viewpoint are more than enough proof that applies to you personally.

I don't know about jobs, but there's a Baptist university in some Southern state (Mississippi?) that offers degrees in homemaking to women only. (I kid you not.)

Men are nannies. Not many, but they are. I wouldn't want a male bra-fitter.

Fragrance counter at Macy's.... I suppose gay men might qualify though.

i don't think a man would be taken very seriously if he applied for a nanny position.

I'm pretty sure they can't be Hooters waitresses, or NFL cheerleaders.
