"Why women prefer male bosses"

"Why women prefer male bosses" won't entertain the obvious answer: because on average male bosses are better and less likely to leave the industry.

Feminists don't like to say this, but in industry everyone knows that most women who have kids quit work or downshift their careers. Yes, there are exceptions. One of my key mentors was a woman who didn't downshift, but she's the exception and she knew she was the exception. She was reluctant to mentor younger women because she'd tried before. She'd mentor them, then a couple years in they'd have a kid and goodbye.

That's also why jobs like nursing, teaching, and pharmacy are so popular among women. They have relatively short training periods. Women can get up and running by age 25 if not sooner. They don't have a lot of headroom or upward mobility, but those professions are all ones that make it easy to drop in and drop out of the workforce.

Reality exists independently of the dumb assertions many people (especially feminists) emit.

You could just, you know, look at women's real priorities and infer labor market outcomes from that, or you can screech DISCRIMINATION and PATRIARCHY on Twitter instead of working.
