“Pink Collar” Turns Blue

More and more men hold traditionally-female jobs. Amy Tennery wants to retire the "pink collar" moniker:

[T]he term doesn’t even make sense anymore. As the Times data show, nearly a third of men’s job growth between 2000 and 2010 was in careers in which women accounted for the vast majority. And it’s not as though they’re pushing women into other fields, pinkifying other jobs. It turns out traditionally female-dominated careers are just growing. "Pink collar" is silly and outdated — and keeping it around is to the determent of everyone.
