I don’t know, I find this distinction by gender curious. Although considering that my sisters are very much into doing things their own way, it’s not much of a surprise.

EDIT: a more precise description of what my sisters do and one of my sister’s job.

    All my sisters went into healthcare. The men all went into IT. I suppose the women care and the men are into constantly fixing things? IDK.

      Perhaps culture and/or upbringing have something to do with it.

      My mother has always prioritized her economic and work independence, something she taught my sisters. My brothers and I, on the other hand, were always stressed the importance of having a stable job.

      Maybe there’s a feedback loop. “Based on my experience with how this hospital manages IT, my household won’t make the same mistake!”
