Gender sensitivity a sensitive issue CMAJ 1997;157:640 See response from: S. Phillips One of the excellent reviews concerning gender sensitivity, "Gender sensitivity in medical curricula" (CMAJ 1997;156:1297-1300 [full text / résumé]), by Barbara Zelek and associates, neglected very important terminology that has been used in the US but was not included in this article. The term "seminar" should be reserved for teaching presentations involving male faculty members, with "ovular" being used for presentations by female faculty members. Jack H.
