(11pp) Constructing gender and occupational segregation: a study of women and work in fishing communities. The glass escalator, revisited: gender inequality in neoliberal. William"s article discussed a concept she wrote about in the past, called the glass escalator in which she observed that men were guided to move up in their careers (as if on an escalator). Revisiting this topic, she found that she needed to incorporate racism, homophobia, and class inequality advantage, etc in the concept. She also notes that demands for gender equality at work are not sufficient to address gender inequality, but that an examination of capitalism is needed as well. The guy and newman article discusses unpaid emotional labor that women are expected to fulfill even though it is not part of the formal job description.
