Comment envisage-t-on d'être sage-femme quand on est un homme ?: L'intégration professionnelle des étudiants hommes sages-femmes

Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: The profession of midwife, profoundly gendered, has been chosen by a few men since 1982, when it was opened to them. However, because of a change in the recruitment process, in which future midwives will need to follow the first year of medical school, the chances are high to see the presence of men rise in this profession. The school of Grenoble has been experimenting this to understand the present professional evolutions. On the basis of the speech of twelve male students of this school, their forms of professional integration will be analyzed, as well as the answers to two questions: are male midwifes a new professional segment or not? What role do they think they will play in the professionalization presently under way?
