Examining women's§diverse experiences of male-dominated work, this ground-breaking book explores§what sexuality and gender means to women working in the construction and§transport industries. Using accounts from heterosexual women and lesbians§working in professional, manual and operational roles, Gender and Sexuality in Male-Dominated Occupations adopts an§intersectional approach to examine advantage and disadvantage on the basis§of gender, sexuality and occupational§class in these sectors. Drawing on interviews and focus groups, the author examines§why women choose to enter male-dominated industries, their experiences of§workplace relations, their use of women's support networks and trade unions,§and the interface between home and work lives. Presenting international and§UK-based examples of effective interventions to increase women's participation§in male-dominated work, this important book highlights the need for political§will to tackle women's underrepresentation, and suggests directions for the§future. §
