The article reports on changes in the distribution of women in traditionally male and and traditionally female jobs between 1967 and 1971. The data on movements between typical and atypical occupations indicate that although white women are moving into stereotypically male jobs, black women are not. Black women who move from atypical to typical jobs appear to earn only 80 percent of the rate of white women. Atypical jobs appear to be less satisfying than typical, but more lucrative, for women of all races.
