Hi everyone!! Today I’m going to talk about gender problems.
A gender problem referred to a specific work area is related to any kind of discrimination suffered by a workers group due to form the minority. Midwifery is a good example of that. This is a career studied mainly by women therefore men make up the minority group. However, the discrimination which experiment male midwives isn’t precisely done by their colleagues, but some patients who they have attended. Sometimes female patients say they feel embarrassed when male midwives do them a physical examination. They do not feel comfortable.
In nursery happens the same situation. There are more female nurses than male nurses hence, in my point of view, they feel just like male midwives.
I don’t know if gender issues among health workers occur in other countries but I think it does.
A long time ago I saw a movie called “Meet the parents” (La familia de mi novia). In this movie, the main character was a male nurse who met her fiancé’s family and he had to stand for their mocking due to his profession.
