Democrat lawmaker says the word manufacturing 'sounds like a guy,' might be why field has few women

[Billiejeens]

During a hearing on Wednesday, a Democratic lawmaker in the House said the reason why fewer women are involved in manufacturing could be because the term has the word "man" in it.

"Yesterday I met with a manufacturing company, but they also are engaged in getting young people more engaged in manufacturing," Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., said during a Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade subcommittee hearing entitled "AI in Manufacturing: Securing American Leadership in Manufacturing and the Next Generation of Technologies."

Schakowsky continued by saying she thinks that fewer women are in manufacturing because the word itself sounds too male.

"So, I asked them, so, how many of those students that are signing up and want to do this? How many are women?" Schakowsky said, adding that they told her it was at least 13%.

"It was a low number," she said. "And you had mentioned trying to engage more women in manufacturing. I'm just wondering if just the name manufacturing sounds like a guy."

In a post on X featuring the remarks, Rep. Gabe Evans, R-Colo., who is also on the subcommittee, said, "Us: Let's lead the way and bring jobs back to America. Democrats: ‘Manufacturing’ is a sexist term against women!"

BJ-

Yeah, I know that when I think of a manicurist, a big burly guy immediately comes to mind.

Democrats must be lying awake at night thinking of ways to out stupid each other.
Get some sleep, ya'll.

James mentioned he read this this morning and I chuckled and snorted- thinking it was a joke.

One has to notice that women's suffrage didn't suppress them going to vote.

This reminds me of when the House banned the use of words like "mother" and "daughter." Stupid liberals. They still don't understand that the culture has moved on without them.
