      Coal mining pretty much died as a career path before women could really get into it.

      Primary education pays terribly for the education level, so the educated men go elsewhere.

      Its not the same comparison tho. Tech is a far more lucrative career than coal mining/primary ed. Inequity in tech affects a lot more than inequity in those other fields.
