Unrealistic, those jobs have real risks that cannot just be 
hand-waved away, which is why they often come with compensating 
high pay, as that blog post notes.  If we populate all job fields 
with 50% women, that means female deaths on the job would 
inevitably rise a lot.  Yet, you will never see that mentioned...
