- For the first question:
- The "glass escalator" refers to men, especially white men, being quickly promoted in female - dominated fields. Greg Focker, a white man, was promoted in nursing (a female - dominated field) much faster than Tess (a Filipina woman) and Jason (a Haitian American man).
- "The feminization of poverty" is about women being more likely to be poor. "Care work" is a general term for work that involves caring for others. "Job segregation" is about jobs being divided by gender, race, etc., but not specifically about the fast - track promotion of men in female - dominated fields.
- For the second question:
- The "ideal worker norm" is the concept that employees should be fully dedicated to their jobs without family distractions.
- "Second shift" refers to the unpaid domestic work (usually done by women) after their paid work. "Specialized division of labor" is about the division of tasks in a workplace. "Ideology of intensive motherhood" is about a particular view of mothering that is very involved and time - consuming.
