    1. Among California’s young Latino workers,Latina women are consistently enrolledin school at higher rates and have higherformal education levels than Latino men(Figure 10). About 10% of young Latinomen in high automation risk jobs did nothave a high school diploma and were notcurrently enrolled in school, twice the rate ofyoung Latina women in the same jobs (5%).Additionally, fewer Latino men in high-riskroles were enrolled in school compared toLatina women (39% compared to 53%,respectively).

      I find this interesting and I think this reflects the standards and expectations placed on men in Latino culture. Men are expected to work and provide (often in jobs which tax your body) and women are often more encouraged to go to school in my experience. Also I think the percentages may also include undocumented Latino men who very often don't have an education and also work in hard jobs.
