People from diverse social and cultural backgrounds may have divergent attitudes towards the gender imbalance in some occupations. Admittedly, there are merits on both sides (or - both sides have their merits).The fact remains that male labor benefits individuals personally and socially. It is widely accepted that men are better suited for manual work such as construction and operation of heavy machines, as they have more muscle mass. In addition, male employees do not need maternity leave. This means that they have a longer working time than woman. They are also able to work in occupations where they are away on business trips continually.
On the other hand, female psychology is more sensitive and gentle than males.

They are also well adapted to nursing work in the hospital .
In conclusion，on account of the unique advantages and irreplaceable value possessed by men and women respectively in terms of occupational skills, special skills deserve to be valued and respected.
I think as far as the gender imbalance is caused by true differences between the sexes, it is acceptable. However, if the gender imbalance is caused by blanket stereotypes that prevent qualified individuals entering a certain field, then that is unacceptable. For example, while most females would not be suitable to work in heavy laboring jobs, some females who are strong and fit may be suited. If those are denied positions before even evaluating their abilities, then that would constitute discrimination. Similarly, some males may be very good kindergarten teachers - if they are denied a teaching position on the basis that "All females are better kindergarten teachers", then that would also constitute discrimination. In short, each job applicant should be assessed on their own merits, without any preconceived stereotypes. Of course, in the real world, it is often who you know that matters more! There are also many occupations, especially in senior management, where "Old boy clubs" preclude the entry of qualified females.
