AB During the COVID-19 pandemic, gender inequalities in nurses have been exacerbatedthrough the images shown on social networks. This study aimed to explore and describe nursingstudents’ experiences and perceptions about gender inequalities in nurses during the COVID-19pandemic. A descriptive qualitative study was carried out in two universities in 264 undergraduatenursing students. The photovoice method was used to guide the study. Results: Two main categoriesand four subcategories were described from the data: “gender-related stereotypes”, with “maleleadership in a female profession” and “sexualization of female nurses” and “women’s vulnerabilityin the pandemic” with “the gender gap in the face of increased risk of contagion “ and “women’semotional fragility”. Over the years, care has been considered a female task, and nursing continuesto be thought of in this way. The nurse has been discriminated against, poorly considered as aprofessional, and, as a woman, subjected to gender roles.
