Nothing that went from female to male?

They have a selection of ones fluctuating. I'd be surprised if you would find any job typically female since 50s other than perhaps being a housekeeper and child care.

All still more than 70% female:

Elementary school teacher

Flight attendant

Registered nurses, also vocational nurses

Wait Staff

Occupational Therapists

I think that regardless of your social or political stance of anything regarding males, females, workplaces, salaries, or sexism, more data is always nice to have.

Now I'm going to figure out how to twist this into fitting my own personal world view and then make a news article about it.

Tour and Travel Guides is one of them.

I basically went to the circles thing in the middle and started moving my mouse around till I found one that I thought might have been female dominated in the past, then I checked it in the box below.

Would be nice to get the data though.
