dc.description.abstractPurpose: It is seen that male student nurses encounter gender-based barriers during their professional experiences. Our aim wasto evaluate the perspective of pregnant women of male students in the maternity clinic.Methods and Materials: The study was conducted March 2019- August 2019 with 421 volunteer pregnant women in thePerinatology Clinic of Trakya University Hospital. The sociodemographic characteristics of the pregnant women were recorded.In order to evaluate the perspectives of the pregnant women of male student nurses, 30 questions consisting of three partswere asked.Results: When asked whether male nurses should work in maternity wards, 61.99% of the pregnant women answered ‘no.’ Whenasked whether male students should participate in active maternal and neonatal care in maternity wards, 60.09% of pregnantwomen said ‘No.’ Three-quarters (77.67%) of the pregnant women thought that male student nurses could communicate easilywith their husbands, and 71.49% believed their husbands would feel more comfortable with male nurses outside the delivery room.Conclusion: Our study contributed to a better understanding of the approach to male student nurses in obstetrics clinics. As aresult of Turkey’s cultural structure, male students face gender-based prejudices. Changing the social environment in nursingis a difficult process to influence the value judgments of society. We may not have enough time to change the perspectiveof societies, it may take many years. Students should be encouraged to become nurses who are professionals. Socioculturallyequipping student nurses and making them resistant to psychological attrition will encourage them to perform their professionthrough ownership.en_US
