Add gender disparity in job displacement data

Type: queueStatus: pending

What

Research shows 79% of women occupy high-risk automation roles vs 58% of men. The 14% already-displaced statistic grounds displacement in the present rather than the future. Neither figure appears in the manuscript.

Why

Chapter 2 argues displacement is happening now, not hypothetically. Concrete current statistics strengthen this significantly. The gender disparity adds an equity dimension the book currently lacks.

How

In Chapter 2's section establishing the scale of automation displacement, add the current statistics briefly — not as a digression into gender politics, but as evidence that displacement is already real, already measurable, and already unequal.

Impact

Grounds the abstract argument in present-tense data. Adds equity dimension without derailing the main argument.
