So the other day i was talking with a sports medicine rehab specialist. And he said that women should not try and be ortho surgeons or sports medicine specialists, bc it is a "man's world" ....would love to hear people's thoughts on this

I want to be a gynecologist.
but my mom said she don't want a son that is a gynecologist, that people would think something else.
How wrong is that?

I've had the male v female gyno conversation with my wife and she firmly prefers older men.. like 60+.
She says it's because they're less threatening to her, but I say it's because their hands are shaky at that age.![]()
I rotate in a charity hospital where the university ortho residents get to operate pretty independently. In talking to the seasoned OR nurse there, who has seen (and let's face it - trained) probably hundreds of residents over the past 20 years, she notes with honesty that the smaller female ortho residents are notably less capable in doing the large joint procedures. The reason is that you have to have the strength to do strenuous moves GENTLY and with PRECISION. If you have to throw your whole body into a manipulation to accomplish it, you aren't able to exercise the same level of control as someone who can isolate the movement into their forearms/hands.Originally posted by water4girl

I forgot to add my feelings on GYN. I had always gone to a female until this year when I found one in my new city. The female I was referred to was full so I went with one of her male partners. I will never go back to a female again. It was much more realistic to have some guy with his arm inside me trying to be nonchalant and talk about the weather and randomly interjecting how normal my ovaries were. It just isn't normal with a woman trying to do the same thing while handling my boobs. (sorry to ruin the fantasy guys)
