In the discussion I slightly overstated the dominance of women in Iran's technical and engineering facilities, but the point stands. By contrast, women in Norway are remarkably reluctant to enter many male professions.

Eurostat also report that males suffer almost 80 per cent of workplace injuries and 95 per cent of workplace deaths.
