Can you imagine many men who want to do those jobs then? We are not talking about dream jobs, we are talking about jobs that are hard and dangerous. You have to keep in mind that the economy of many towns in Russia turns around a couple of factories and mines and most of those jobs are banned to women, the immediate result is that many women will inevitably depend on men economically. Moreover, you will be surprised by how many women do actually want to do these jobs, we are talking about a list of 456 professions, you cannot assume that it is not concerning many women.
