Again with the application of systemic change at the individual level. You hate to see it.
If I wanted to solve the problem (assuming it were perceived as such, due to males not getting the opportunity to be a nurse where they otherwise would want to) of nursing being predominantly a female profession, which option do I choose:
- investigate whether there are institutional (hiring bias, biased availability etc), cultural (nursing treated as "for girls"), or systemic (nursing careers primarily promoted in female-coded environments) reasons why males are seeing reduced opportunity to access nursing as a career
- just put up a sign saying "hiring male nurses", completely ignoring the raised concern about lack of opportunity to look good to a particular twisted perspective on systemic issues
It bothers me every time I see it. Even without the immorality of excluding people based on immutable features.
