I’ve been a nurse for 26 years and I’ve never had women specific problems, in a woman dominated field. Ever. I wonder if it’s how power structures are set up? Or how women are taught to perceive themselves and others? I’ve talked to other nurses who felt differently, and definitely had gender specific problems. What did you think of your male bosses?

I find I adore it when one of our medical or surgical teams is mostly or all women, it’s like a missing piece has finally been placed for great patient care, men are great as well, but when we get that balance, it’s the best thing ever.
