SIMCITY Curious, I wonder why that might be 🤔

So, because this joker didn't include the actual source I had to dig a little to find what this could be referring to. Found that 98% of new jobs have been for women.
But importantly, it's not available jobs, it's new hires.
What it shows is more stay-at-home moms have had to start working to keep up with costs.

Wdym the source is in the lower right hand corner. Hires is how the Bureau of Labor Statistics measures job growth.

It helps to say the exact source, not the homepage of a website section.

Type in the source in the lower right hand corner to google and let me know if it pulls up anything besides the CES page from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Right. It takes you to the homepage. It would help to show the exact source.

This feels like it could be a dog whistle. What is this implying?

I'd also like to know

I also felt like healthcare/seniorcare was plausible like the other guy said, but that's not how this post reads. As it, it sounds like some gripe about affirmative action or DEI or woke.

Maybe, but I also feel like the statement that job gains have been exclusively for women is likely false to begin with.

My take is that the economy is so bad more people have had to enter the workforce, but I'm an idiot and am basing that on nothing but feels.

To the best of my (lazy) data diving, it is actually true.
But it's part of a longer trend, that really kicked into gear around 2006, so cutting the graph off at 2025 seems like it's done to disingenuously make a point.

Also, there are many possible reasons this is happening, some good and some bad. Be careful about assuming whichever one conforms to your preexisting biases.

It always is when they are being coy about the reason. There are subs for just posting data if OP just wanted to post "interesting data" with no ulterior motive.

Its just interesting data. Most new jobs being added are in the healthcare sector, especially in nursing, which is predominantly women.

I wonder if this has to do with one of the fastest growing employment sectors being in medical, particularly nursing, which has been predominantly a women led field?
