>>21288310>that a top medical school in Japan was lowering women's test scores in order to decrease the number of female applicants admitted into the school.I don't know if Tokyo Medical University is a top medical school.
Doctors are in a highly demanding profession and frequently work night shifts. Although they work long hours with few days off, as much as or more than police officers, there is a clear trend among female doctors in the Japanese medical field to avoid night shifts, and the increase in the number of female doctors poses a real risk of dysfunctional medical services. There is also a clear tendency for female doctors to specialize in relatively easy, low-risk specialties such as dermatology and ophthalmology, and a clear tendency for them to avoid intensive, life-and-death-critical specialties such as internal medicine, surgery, cardiology, neurosurgery, gastroenterology, and obstetrics and gynecology.
Although it is against the equality of both sexes to give points to male candidates in medical college entrance exams, the officials at Tokyo Medical University have made a responsible decision to maintain the level of medical service they provide as health care industry workers.
In Japan, it is legally impossible for men to become midwives. This is against the equality of both sexes, but no one is complaining. In Japan, only a small percentage of male applicants are admitted to nursing schools, no matter how good their test scores are. This is against the equality of both sexes, but I think it cannot be helped. Female nurses are allowed to touch both female and male patients. However, when male nurses touch the bodies of female patients, there is not only the problem of causing embarrassment to female patients, but also the risk of lawsuits.
"Gender is social construct" is Westerners' cult religion of the 21st century, and it's not true. Male and female are different and they have different roles.
