Frequency of negative experiences due to gender in a sample of 461 clinicians at a safety-net hospital using a novel gender question. Women were significantly more likely to report negative experiences due to gender “frequently” or “fairly often,” at 13%, than men, at 3.2%. Only 35% of women reported never encountering negative experiences due to gender, compared with 70% of men (Cochran–Armitage test, p < 0.001).
