The 1888 Match Girls Strike was the most famous in history, even though the incidence of phosphorous poisoning among male workers was far worse

Women are perfectly capable of doing many dirty and/or dangerous jobs, as they have to do in wartime (though even then, the men do the heaviest ‘reserved’ work). There are always a few women car mechanics, plumbers, etc; as we‘d expect by virtue of the small percentage of women with ‘brain patterning’ along male lines. It may be that there are no remotely typical women in these jobs at all. It’s still the case that all of the very worst jobs - in terms of work environment, physical demands, promotion/redundancy prospects, stress, likelihood of injury or death and extra hours of work regarded as the norm to make up reasonable pay - are manned 95-100%. Women do not look for jobs that pay a bonus for being ‘dirty’ or ‘dangerous’ because for them it would be essentially pointless, as a biologically-based analysis reveals. But it’s the fact that they are jobs that tend to be held by men that seals it. It’s self-segregation of the sexes that underlies why many light-assembly factories have for generations employed either nearly all women or nearly all men, for reasons nobody can remember (rather, it was for reasons we are but dimly aware of).

Most women are in the lower echelons of the economy in a separate all-female labour market. This is so pronounced that this horizontal job segregation has no impact on the pay gap, which is produced by vertical segregation (differences in the position in the organisational hierarchy). This is reflected in the fact that male and female unemployment rates are almost independent of each other. As Hakim concludes, competition between male and female workers does not happen. Equal pay laws have nil effect on female unemployment, despite economic theory predicting that as women’s wages rise relative to men’s, then women would tend to become progressively less employable. This didn‘t happen, because women’s jobs were mostly segregated - largely self-segregated - from men’s.
