Blog post #8

Men are known to be better at certain jobs than women are. Men are pushed by society in a way to do better at there jobs. Automatically men have a better chance of getting a job at any profession than a woman would.

William, L. Christine. "The Glass Escalator: Hidden Advantages for Men in the "Female" Professions". Men's Lives.5th edition. Michael, Messner A. Michael. New York: Allyn & Bacon. 2001. 211 224. print.

Summary: Williams is trying to show us that women struggle with trying to get a profession, but men on the other hand are on the glass escalator going up to the top without any pressure.

Assesment: This is a good source to use for a class because it has a lot of statistics and research. Williams did not only research information from other sources but, she also did interviews on her own.

Reflection: The source fits into my research because, I can use the sources that Williams gave to find more information.
