Why is there a glass ceiling, but no glass floor?

Why is that people say that fewer women than men are at the top because of the glass ceiling but nobody ever says that fewer women than men are at the bottom because of a glass floor. After all, if the glass ceiling is preventing women from becoming CEOs and other high positions, then isn't a glass floor preventing women from dropping out of school, from being unemployed, and from becoming criminals?
