Can Nurse. 1993 May;89(5):41-3.
This article is the first of a two-part series that will be completed in next month's issue. The article illustrates through examples how nursing has the potential for sexual bias. It also demonstrates how the feminist movement can contribute to improving nursing practice. This month, the views of Peggy Chinn are discussed, outlining myths that limit the development or hinder the progress of non-sexist education in nursing. Myths that have become traditional, scientific male-centred methodologies now solidly rooted in the health care community are identified. The author explains that once the myths are identified, they should be extracted and isolated from the context of nursing. This is the way feminist research can be useful. Next month the author will define the feminist approach and how it applies to specific aspects of women's health.
本文是一个分两部分的系列文章的第一篇，该系列将在下个月的期刊上完成。本文通过实例说明了护理工作中存在性别偏见的可能性。它还展示了女权运动如何有助于改善护理实践。本月，我们将讨论佩吉·钦的观点，概述那些限制护理领域非性别歧视教育发展或阻碍其进步的误区。我们将找出那些已成为传统的、以科学的男性为中心的方法，这些方法如今已牢固地扎根于医疗保健领域。作者解释说，一旦识别出这些误区，就应该将它们从护理背景中提取并分离出来。这就是女权主义研究能够发挥作用的方式。下个月，作者将定义女权主义方法及其如何应用于女性健康的具体方面。
