This article was very interesting, that because male physicians started entering this field it "lead to the demand for female physicians." Which I'm sure some women had an "ah ha" moment. However I do see where the community surrounded the mother for support during the childbirth and how that might effect the group dynamic when physicians took the place of these other women. --Remy B. | This article was very interesting, that because male physicians started entering this field it "lead to the demand for female physicians."

| + | I find it interesting that midwifery was being phased out by all the physicians who were just starting out in the field. The midwives in my opinion did the same job as the physicians, but because they were female, it made all the difference. Now the field is open to both men and women, both sexes can do the job. They may have different ideas about how to do their job, but the end result is the same. ---Pam Petzold | ||
