    This is a good example of the glass floor. Women get support, men are expected to either deal, or disappear. Gender inequality won’t be dealt with until its fixed on both sides. The glass ceiling is going for women, but we still need to build a glass floor for men too.

    Things are improving, but slowly.

      I’m pretty sure that’s not the glass floor. The glass floor is what prevents certain people from falling too far down on a socioeconomic ladder, just as the glass ceiling prevents some from ascending.
