Abstract

Recognition of gender and ethnicity from the health aspect has become increasingly imperative for medical practitioners. They are realizing the importance of evaluating health risk factors for both male and female, majority and minority groups, and young and old citizens. As diverse as the patients are, so are the groups who diagnose them. They are responsible for perceiving, evaluating, coping with health issues from their own and from the patient's cultural perspectives in order to effectively prevent diseases from spreading. Due to our dependence on gender, ethnicity, age and sexual orientation to understand the health issues, it is critical that we are not bias against any particular group of individuals. However, the reverse has been observed in both the medical field as well as outside it. Women more than men and minority groups more than the majority are more vulnerable to depression, eating disorders, sexual diseases as well as the minority group.
