When I see the gender stuff in psychiatric charts, I wonder if that will change. There are several gender stereotypes that really get under my skin as I do not think they apply any longer. Close to 50/50 women and men graduate from med school. Women work and earn money. Pay for themselves and are educated professional members of society. Some men cannot handle that concept as they didn't grow up around it or with those roles. It seems like the charts would reflect that change over time.
