 Sexism in clarinet maintenance
Author: Eoin McAuley

I bet that caught your eye! I often stop my self typing "repair man" and search around for a suitable alternative. "Repair person" sounds stupid, "repairer" is too hard to say, "tech" sounds too tech.

My repair man is a man. So are all the others I've heard about. Are there in fact any woman involved in this noble and essential profession? If not, am I worrying unduly, or does using the term "repair man" show an inherent bias, causing women to be intimidated and turned off the job?
