You don’t even know it is a theory… I am dumbfounded.
“The construction industry continues to be predominately male with structures and norms that impede women from pursuing careers within the industry. As mentioned above, the SCB (2019) report showed that the construction industry in Sweden consists of only 11 per cent women.”
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, approximately 14% of construction workers [are] female.
Oh, look at that, it’s exactly what I just said: the country with MORE gender equality overall, Sweden, has the LARGER gender skew. Construction is MORE male-dominated in Sweden than in the US.
So, once more:
Explain how, if sexism is the reason for the gap in the first place, it can be that less sexism leads to a wider gap (which you just unwittingly proved is the case). Be specific.
Sweden is still a sexist society that is not attempting to deal with that issue just like the US. Although their laws are way better, culturally they still have a long way to go. Please see Norway for a country actually trying to dismantle sexism.
So once more you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about. Hell, you probably can’t even define sexism.
"* Although Sweden is considered progressive, some argue that subtle forms of sexism can still exist in workplaces or social interactions, like gender stereotypes about appearance or leadership roles.
Representation in certain fields:
While overall gender equality is high, some industries might still show imbalances in gender representation, particularly in leadership positions."
Nobody said there was zero sexism in Sweden. I’m talking in relative terms. All that’s needed to make my point is for Sweden to be less sexist than the US. And it is–in fact, it’s top 4 in the world on gender equality indexes.
The fact, again, is that countries that are more egalitarian re sex have been found to exhibit, as was just evidenced, steeper sex skews in the workforce, than less egalitarian countries.
This roundly refutes the assumption that sexism is the primary cause of the skew’s existence. If it was, reducing sexism would narrow the gap, not widen it.
I realize this fact doesn’t confirm your biases, but it is the fact of the matter nonetheless.
Culturally Sweden may be more or less sexist than the US. As you demonstrated apparently when it comes to the construction field the US is less sexist than Sweden.
I have already provided evidence in the form of Norway that disputes your pet theory. So it is clear it is not universal and certainly not the law you think it is.
You really don’t understand sexism or the cultural indoctrination that causes it. You conflate progressive laws with sexism itself which, I have already said, is nonsensical. Having progressive laws does not suddenly end sexism.
I realize that you have probably never confronted you bias and recognized you are a sexist human being like I have.

You are so full of shit it is not even funny.
I think we are done pretending you know anything.
lol…do you sink in mercury?
Meanwhile, in the US:
