blog post#8



According to the article“The Glass Escalator: Hidden Advantages for Men in the “Female” Professions, Men have advantages that make them easily improve their positon in the “female” positions.
The article is research paper. it has a lot of references that are reliable .the author reads a lot about the topic and interviews a lot of people.
 I think it depends on the position that the man has. We have different expectations of men in different positions. The glass escalator effect helps men get advantages in female job over women. In some” female" professions, males still have advantage in hiring and promotions. For example, it mentions in the article that one of the interviews says that it’s nice to have male in pediatrics.

  1. You have a thesis and a correct MLA documentation. Also there seems to be an assessment but there is no summary and the reflection needs work. Please revise and organize in order specified in the assignment.
