How a beefy job creation bill took on a pink hue

The apron revolt you haven't heard about:

When women's organizations learned that the stimulus bill was heavily weighted toward shovel-ready manufacturing and construction jobs - men's work - they sprang into action and altered the bill considerably. Shovel-ready jobs gave way to apron-ready jobs.

Now we have what pjtv calls a "mancession," a recession that mostly affects men.
