When I graduate from vet school, I will have all of the knowledge I need to make me a great vet. I will have tons of notes, textbooks and an ablility to make a cow’s stomach out of cloth (see my profile picture). I will have access to all of the latest technology. After several years in practice, I will have the practical experience to back up all of that knowledge. I will be a great vet.
However, I know that at times, because of the path in veterinary medicine I have chosen, I will be discriminated against. I know that my knowledge won’t make me instantly one of the boys when working in the male dominated livestock field. I will have to show my collegues and clients that I am smart and strong and work hard. That I’m an equal amoung them.
I will however never have one thing, a penis. So I will either have to have the biggest truck to compensate for it...or carry one around in a jar. Whatever.
