If I give my true opinion on this matter the hatefully PC mods will just lock the thread and issue a ban. :rolleyes:

So I'll let each individual view the data and decide for themselves why more males than females are doctors.

Tell us what you think OP i can't be bothered reading all that.... what spurred you to start a thread on it???????

policarp

Most Drag Queens are male.
What's your point?

Solnskaya

And oddly enough, most women in Ireland are female. Whatcher point???

Sardonicat

OP, if you look at the gender breakdown of Interns (newly qualified, drs) it's 55% male to 45% female. Give it another few years and it will be 50/50.

ShooterSF

And there are more female than male nurses and secretaries and flight attendants I bet.
If you really want a freak out look at the ratio of male to female priests hired by the RCC!

Princess Consuela Bananahammock

There appear to have been more general registrations than specialist registrations too.

Reading all what? The link is to a pie-chart showing the figure I mentioned?

I started this thread to highlight that, despite an almost militant campaign from feminists and liberals alike, their attemps to socially engineer society are failing.

These people need to face up to reality, for the good of society.

I would argue that nurses are no more than glorified nurofen administrators.

They are necessary -- but then so are binmen...

Oh, yawn. If I want social commentary, I'm not about to take it from someone with the username "The IRgAY".

Unlikely. If it's not now despite the crafty tinkering of the school system, it most probably will never be.

See my previous post on this matter.

Nurses are in nursing because they don't have sufficient brain power for medicine. Fact!

If you are ever ill in hosp and dependent on nurses you might want to keep that opinion to yourself! In fact, that view shows a typical misunderstanding of what nurses actually do and what goes in to qualifying as a nurse.

And I point out again, that the stats you linked to included a breakdown of the current number of interns. There is only a 10% majority of males at the moment. The gap is increasingly closing.

Really, if you won't make your point explicitly then perhaps this is better suited to conspiracy theories. If you really want a serious analysis of the stats why don't you start a thread in helath sciences? I'm sure plenty of Drs would be happy to discuss the reasons with you.

Some 600 points are better than others. Not all subjects are equally difficult...

Yes. It's all the Feminazis fault.

Let me tell you a story, Theboss, a story about a little boy named, let's say Billy. Billy had a bright future ahead of him. From a young age he was interested in how the body worked and what made people ill. As a child, he was always nursing sickly animals back to health and plastering up other kids' scuffed knees.

As Billy got older, he realised that he could make a career out of doing what he loved. He studied hard and got great points in his Leaving Cert and applied for a great university. All was going swimmingly until the PC BRIGADE and the PINKO LIBERALS and the FEMINAZIS got wind of it. Through some spectacular but vague and unclear social engineering, they made sure little Billy never made it. He never got to med school. He took up crack, and spent his time offering to apply band-aids for money before ending up penniless, on drugs and in the gutter. And then he died.

THE END.

What I'm getting to here is, don't ever trust a feminist, Theboss because don't fool yourself -- feminists and the PC Brigade and the liberals would kill you and all your family too if they got half the chance. They must be shot on sight because their evil knows no bounds.

Let me explain in the simplist possible way what feminists do.

They demand artificial equality. They expect their shortfall in ability to be made up by their male counterparts.

I'll use a example that is impossible to miss.

A clique of radical feminist tennis players demanded that both male and female players receive equal prize money for the Wimbledon Championships. They think this is fair, despite the fact that they a) play less games, b) play inferior tennis, and c) attract less revenue through advertising.

This warped idea of equality underpines everything that is flawed with feminism as an ideology: it is not about quality; it is soley about the rights of women.

I know. Shocking stuff. You can see why the OP has such a problem with them. A feminist made off with his grandpa and his childhood pet. That's not to mention what the PC Brigade did to his best friend. Tragic stuff.

You don't need to simplify it any, thanks. It's not that I'm having trouble understanding you. As you may or may not have gathered from the post you quoted, I understood it enough to satirise it.

OMG!

So, the HSE are recruiting tennis players to overcome the shortfall of Junior doctors?

I knew I should have spoken up when that lady "doctor" was treating my broken arm by hitting it with a tennis racket. I just felt like there was something wrong with the situation but you know, you never say anything at the time and then regret it all the way home.

You know you couldn't articulate your feelings of forboding becuase you are a female, don't you? We just don't have the brainpower...

Actually it's very likely. In 2008, the most recent year I can find figures for, 75% of Irish medical students were female, in comparison to 59% of females across the university sector.

In August, 2009, the Health Professionals Admissions Test
(HPat) was introduced to the Irish university medical admissions system. The test was introduced to attempt to ensure that the most suitable students were being admitted to Irish medical schools, and to restore a 50/50 gender ratio of medical students at Irish universities.

So the social engineering is actually working in favour of men?

You have contributed precisely NO valid points to this thread. I, on the other hand, have contributed a measured and fair argument about the existential gender imbalance in Ireland's medical profession.

Everyone else will clearly see this.
