Re: Why do people worship nurses so much whilst they hate doctors

(Anonymous) 2015-11-06 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Class (nurses tend to be lower-class, doctors higher class) and gender (nurses are more likely to be female, doctors to be male). So if your politics are broadly left, it's going to follow that you're going to be more sympathetic to nurses. Also, I think there's a prevalent cultural meme - and I don't know how true it is - that nurses work much harder than doctors while being paid much less. So that might contribute to it. Finally, I think at least in the US, when you're in the medical system, you're mostly going to deal with nurses - and so any experience of kindness or support or compassion is likely to come from them - whereas doctors because of how the system works tend to just run in and out and can often come off as very brusque. So there's that emotional tinge to it.

IDK. I mean, I think it probably is true that the medical education and training system & the medical system genreally is kind of fucked in a way that might lead to doctors being shitty. But that's a generalization of course.
