"Cater’s girlfriend Cecilia has held on to her job as an office manager for a chiropractor. But Cater says he’s been eating into his savings to avoid relying too much on her income."
As far as I can tell, the article's claim that 80% of job losses have fallen on men is wildly wrong. From the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics I got this page: http://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/
It looks like women's unemployment is up by about 3% and men's by a smidge under 5%, making the relative increase... um, 62.5% "falling on men"
Ugh, that sort of coinage alwasy sounds like it comes from a Family Circus cartoon. I was particularly annoyed by "threepeat" a few years ago when som local sports team was in danger of winning something for the third time running.
