Men and women are represented in very radically contrasting ways.
Women seem to be the more sensitive sex in the clip, the most prominent being the nurse who expresses concern for the "cock up" in notes which lead to a patient having an unwanted sterilisation. However, there is a darker side presented at the very start when a woman, assuming that she knows the patient, swaps the names around and deliberately changes the notes.
Men are portrayed as arrogant and sexist, the main surgeon especially, showing to be rather lax at the idea of performing surgery. He immediately comments on the patient's vagina, calling it a "freaky fanny". He then expresses no concern towards the "cock up", insisting that they carry on regardless of whether the patient wants it or not.
