Nursing's survival in the new millennium necessitates the application of a fresh lens to the manner in which nurses participate in and perpetuate the insidious nature of their oppression. This article critically explores the language and activities that annotate nursing's gender politics to expose how language and power intersect, facilitating the development of a language of social change. Self-deception is found to be a central organizing concept of professional and service delivery organizations that perpetuates professional mediocrity, limits freedom of thought and action, and preserves the borderline status of nurses. Dialogue inclusive of the internal and external systems operating to oppress nurses is suggested to transform nurses as collective social agents and reframe their sociopolitical reality.
护理行业在新千年的存续需要用全新视角审视护士参与并延续其受压迫这一隐蔽本质的方式。本文批判性地探究了诠释护理行业性别政治的语言及活动，以揭示语言与权力的交织如何推动社会变革语言的发展。自我欺骗被发现是专业及服务提供机构的核心组织概念，它使专业平庸得以延续，限制思想和行动自由，并维持护士的边缘地位。建议开展涵盖压迫护士的内外部系统的对话，以使护士转变为集体社会行动者，并重塑其社会政治现实。
