Book Description
Men who do "women's work" have consistently been the butt of jokes, derided for their lack of drive and masculinity. In this eye-opening study, Christine Williams provides a wholly new look at men who work in predominantly female jobs. Having conducted extensive interviews in four cities, Williams uncovers how men in four occupations—nursing, elementary school teaching, librarianship, and social work—think about themselves and experience their work. Contrary to popular imagery, men in traditionally female occupations do not define themselves differently from men in more traditional occupations. Williams finds that most embrace conventional, masculine values. Her findings about how these men fare in their jobs are also counterintuitive. Rather than being surpassed by the larger number of women around them, these men experience the "glass escalator effect," rising in disproportionate numbers to administrative jobs at the top of their professions. Williams finds that a complex interplay between gendered expectations embedded in organizations, and the socially determined ideas workers bring to their jobs, contribute to mens' advantages in these occupations. Using a feminist psychoanalytic perspective, Williams calls for more men not only to cross over to women's occupations, but also to develop alternative masculinities that find common ground with traditionally female norms of cooperation and caring. Until the workplace is sexually integrated and masculine and feminine norms equally valued, it will unfortunately remain "still a man's world." This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1995.

Book Description
In 1977, when author Dr. Norma L. Winter overcame the adversities of her youth and became the only female high school principal in the state of West Virginia, less than three percent of the school administrators in the United States were women. In A Woman in a Man's World, she shares her professional journey into school administration during a time when gender differences among administrators were obvious and roadblocks to success were copious. In this memoir, Winter describes a personal and inspirational triumph over hardship, and she includes meaningful contributions to the study of contrasts between the careers of male and female school administrators. She tells a story about her nontraditional and unconventional life in which she beat the odds both personally and professionally. In the end, she reflects she may have been happiest when she was a woman in a man's world. Praise for A Woman in a Man's World Winter's book is "...an inspirational resource...." --Kirkus Review "A treasure trove of historical and practical information...." --Clarion Review "... Winter's tale reads as a powerful model of ambition and drive." --Blue Ink Review
