A surprising amount of people see a female doctor and recontextualize her in their head as a nurse. Even if she's clearly a doctor and called that. Or they recontextualize doctor as "someone who takes care of others therefore feminine."

Also, I've heard that in Russia doctors are mainly female because of said caregiving role, and therefore have less prestige than they do in other countries.

My BFF (female) is a doctor. She often says it's still really hard because the nurses want to clear things with another (male) doctor, blatantly ignore her requests and have even made sure she gets the more difficult patients.

The amount of times patients/visitors assume our male nurses are doctors and our female doctors are nurses is depressing. If a female doctor is wearing scrubs, she's always guaranteed to be assumed a nurse.

Honestly as a hospital worker I assume anyone in scrubs is a nurse regardless of sex lol. I've mistaken secretaries, cleaning staff, doctors (who give you the most fucking attitude it because heaven forbid they be mistaken for a nurse), students.

99% of the time I can't see your badge and you're all wearing fucking scrubs. Don't give me attitude if I need a nurse to witness my narcotic delivery and I mistake you for one. It's not an insult.

Yeah there's this weird double standard...like on one hand, people complain about care jobs getting paid so much less because it's a female dominated field and (rightfully) demand more respect for care workers but at the same time heaven forbid anyone mistake a female doctor for something as lowly as a common NURSE, the NErvE!
I get that doctors have a different, more specialised (and more difficult and expensive to acquire) skillset and there might be some sexist undercurrents in play but how about not looking down on nurses while trying to uplift female doctors?
