Summary
This article may be cited as: Kelly PJ. The tail wagging the dog. Some women have the audacity to try and enter an “old boys club.” And at one time, medicine in general was, an “old boys’ club.” Spaces in medical schools were limited (as they sill are) and men, it was assumed, would practice medicine for a lifetime. Some women chose to challenge that, and many were met with overwhelming hostility from male superiors in medical schools and residency programs.
