4. "We don't hire male RNs" and other things you should never say to me

   Mommyandcareerchangertobe replied to labordude's topic in Ob/Gyn

   This isn’t a study but it pretty much sums up what I’ve been saying and actually quotes some numbers. It says only 8 percent of women prefer men and 40ish percent half no preference. That means...

   Why so aggressive? I’m telling you the lopsided obgyn female to male ratio in recent years is proof that there is indeed a strong preference for women. You keep ignoring this. That’s pretty clear...

   Mommyandcareerchangertobe replied to labordude's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Why are you so reluctant to believe that most women, if given the choice, prefer a female labor nurse? Competence is assumed, so the argument that they want a “good” nurse regardless of sex is...

   Mommyandcareerchangertobe replied to labordude's topic in Ob/Gyn

   There is a reason that OBGYNs entering the field are overwhelmingly women. I think it probably does have something to do with patient demand. I just said I don’t speak for all women. But I’m...

   I definitely would have cared. I can’t speak for everyone but I honestly am confused how some people here are acting like that’s ridiculous. I don’t want a male provider or nurse involved in my...

   Except that’s not at all what I just said in my scenario. I said if asked if they do have a preference, those that do have a preference I guarantee want a

    I totally respect your perspective as a male labor nurse, and I’m sure you are great at your job and have your own reasons for being drawn to the field. However, it is an avoidable fact that labor...

    But a patient has every right to decline a male to insert his hands into her private areas to do cervical checks. I had a female OB by choice with both my kids, and I hated seeing her male partner on...

    I’m a million years away from becoming a CNM. I live in LA and want to go back to school to get my nursing degree (ABSN) and then hopefully become a CNM after I get some quality labor and delivery...
