Most people aren't aware of how bad things are in nursing. I wasn't aware until very recently. The horrible state of harassment and marginalization of women in STEM (beginning often in college courses) is much better known - although plenty of young women do still go into those fields anyhow - although many leave the profession eventually because of it.

"Female retention in engineering remains a persistent problem. Even after overcoming hurdles to enter the profession, women leave at much higher rates than men, often because of the stress that comes with being female in a male-dominated field. This stress can be quite overt, like when women face instances of gender discrimination or harassment; but our research shows that it can also be subtle, like when women feel that their contributions are less valued than their male peers’ because tasks and roles have been gendered. When experienced daily, this kind of subtle stress can become depleting."
