The document discusses traditional and non-traditional careers for men and women. Traditionally male careers include jobs like welder while traditionally female careers include jobs like nurse. These traditions are based on gender stereotypes. However, the document encourages exploring non-traditional careers as there may be incentives available and one's talents may be better suited for a non-traditional field. It suggests finding a career one is passionate about rather than just good at.
