     As women have gradually become leaders in the professions as in medicine, law, and business, they also have taken jobs once regarded as too physically strenuous. The first changes on the work places happened during the WWII, when many of men being recruited for service and there was needed many workers for producing war equipment for the allies. At this time many of women were joined to labor force and definition as "Doing a Man's Job" become very popular. This was the test of women working in men’s jobs that opened doors for females that are still open today.
   
    Women have become sanitation workers, police officers, fire fighters, and coal miners. And many of women can combine work with family and can do that successfully. Many of them quickly earned acceptance and respect form colleagues.

     During the time when amount of women on men's work places increased, they found many advantages of doing that job. For example Men’s jobs are a good place to find a husband if you are single. Also The pay is typically much higher in careers where men dominate, so women can make more money. And many companies are seeking to increase diversity in the workplace that can open more availing management positions to women.

    Women of the twenty first century  are occupying a greater percentage of blue collar positions - whether in manual labor or in the trades and they got more sense of freedom and fulfillment in the workplace than it was 60 years ago.
