Out in the open?
Article Abstract:
A survey of UK nurses' attitudes towards lesbian colleagues and patients, conducted mainly through questioning members of London Lesbian Nurses' Group, shows that there is no overt discrimination, but that the attitude of the profession towards lesbian nurses needs to be improved. About a quarter of 44 respondents amongst lesbian nurses have not disclosed their homosexuality at work. The tendency is for any homophobic attitudes at work to be directed at patients rather than lesbian nurses. Homosexual orientation tends to be considered as perverted by other nurses.
