N2  - How qualified is the work of men in “feminine” professions, and what insights does this bring into the links between gender and qualification? This article explores this question through interviews and observations carried out in training courses for midwives and social workers, focusing on the professional practice of support. To support patients and users, the few male students must demonstrate certain so-called “feminine” dispositions. Such dispositions are often assumed to be more self-evident for women, and are constructed and recognized as the result of work for these men, and as such are distinctive. The male students are also valued for their gender through multiple biases, which reveals a “masculine nature” qualification. Lastly, these men are perceived and, above all, perceive themselves as endowed with marked professionalism, which strongly qualifies their work and disqualifies that of women
