yes, i felt this way in nursing school, it made it worse when i dated another classmate, and we broke up, the whole class turned against me,,,i became a womanizer and "safety" concern by one of the instructors,,,,i wish i could tell you it gets better,,,there is wide open, little talked about discrimination in nursing against males..the cases where they are paid more, yada yada are few and far between....you are HYPERVISIBLE, anything you do, will stand out, and males are disciplined statistically quicker than female coworkers (check the numbers) read my latest post...other than nursing school, never experienced this that bad, till i came to ALaska 4 months ago....(Fairbanks) email me back for support:)
