Hello to all. I felt compelled to respond to all the messages below.
Unfortunately, I never received the original message posted by Marie
Juilliand.
As a program specialist for the Women's Bureau of the Department of
Labor I feel the need to bring in a larger picture - that of the labor
market and indices for future occupations. We can all agree that
women are commonly in the lowest pay spectrum for reasons which all of
you already know. It is important that we provide all young students
men and women with the information of how the workforce is shaping
itself for the 21st century.
Women have a huge stake in present and future jobs because we are the
fastest growing labor pool. All of the fastest growing occupations
are HIGH WAGE, HIGH SKILL occupations. This will require a BA or
higher.
I agree with Ms. Honeycutt that I do not believe the Women's Wire
magazine is trying to pigeon whole women into those careers only. I do
believe that perhaps the wording was not what we all would want and
that is gender neutral. We as a society need to get away from the
stereo-types drilled into us by media and education of what gender
belongs with which job.
While, I wish we had more role models for young children to see in all
types of occupations, I believe we sell ourselves short that women are
truly making an impact in the way jobs are now perceived. It is
however education which propels young girls into these HIGH WAGE, HIGH
SKILL jobs. I believe that is what Women's Wire was trying to
accomplish. Expose the facts to ALL children on the types of
occupations there are out there, will they be the fastest growing in
the next 10 years and more importantly - will it pay you and
economically - self-sufficient wage?
I have a "Hot Jobs for the 21st Century" pamphlet available. It is
six pages long.
e-mail me your address and phone number and I will be happy to get
copies out to you - FREE.

Subject: Re: Forwarded mail....
First off, I'm sorry to include practically the entire message, but I
felt it important. I don't see why anyone should be upset with what
Women's Wire is doing. The careers listed below reflect a variety of
disciplines including technology, health care, art dealing and
marketing. What is the problem here? Is everyone assuming that
Women's
Wire is suggesting these--and only these--careers for women. There is
no
indication that they are trying to genderize careers. It seems to me
that they are looking to profile successful women in various
disciplines
beginning with what is suggested below. Now, suggesting careers that
would help Women's Wire expand its coverage or a new title is
appropriate; but attacking this writer and Women's Wire and becoming
outraged because they have not chosen the exact same careers or
wording
you would is short-sighted and illogical.
I myself would encourage Ms. Juilland to consider corporate law,
publishing, journalism, engineering, and local politics as areas for
future focus. Also, although a sex equity coordinator is not
necessarily
my first choice, someone who works in a field or combined fields of
social equity would be at the top of my list. Finally, perhaps there
would not be conflict if the title wasn't "Careers For Women." Would
others be more satisfied if it was called "Profile on Careers" or
some
such thing?
Whew. That was a tad long. I may not write much anymore, but when I
do
it's a doooooozy. Please forgive me.
