shafted

I would write this in the men section but they never answer...spoon my question I'd has anyone seen a male nursing student get left out during a a birth or anything as a matter if fact

[That Guy, BSN, RN, EMT-B]

I never saw a "natural" birth and I took OB twice.

Did it bother me, not one bit

I can understand asking males to leave for religious or cultural reasons, but seriously as a mom of two kids, I did not care who was in the delivery room, I just wanted the kid out.

Ditto. After my second labor, on my way into my second unplanned c-section, I was asked if I minded if a male student (I don't think he was a nursing student, maybe a surgical tech or possibly a paramedic) scrubbed in. I was so utterly unconcerned with who saw any part of my body, inside or outside, at that point I probably would have been willing to let strangers off of the street pop in for a look.
