Toplumsal Cinsiyet Eşitsizliğinin Hemşirelik Mesleğine Yansımaları

In this review study, it is aimed to discuss the reflections of gender inequality on the nursing profession. The roles, responsibilities, attitudes and behaviors that society has placed on individuals as men or women for years are the basis of gender inequality. The concept of gender, which affects our daily life, our family roles, our entire life, especially in our education and working life, is actually a social, cultural and learned concept. One of the areas where gender inequality affects most national and international important contracts and activities is the nursing profession known as women's profession. Despite the fact that male nurses have been in the nursing profession, which is known as “women's profession” due to the roles imposed on women by society (such as care and compassion), the desired result could not be achieved due to gender inequality. Considering the studies in the literature; there is still no clarity in how to address male nurses, whether giving the men a different title will cause gender discrimination, whether the desired change in the name of the profession is achieved by the participation of men in the profession, how accurate it is whether male nurses give care to the female patient or not There are different results that cause boredom and that men are abstracted in both education and work.
