What do you call a male midwife?
Or a male “sister” or “matron” in a hospital?
Are there any other jobs that both sexes do but are referred to as only being by one sex? |

In my line of work we have:
Pilotmen
Secondmen
And regardless of sex you describe someone from another location in terms of (for example) they're a Manchester man or a Liverpool man.
Clearly we have plenty of women in the industry but no one seems offended by these historic terms. |
