從生理性別、社會性別和交織性來談醫學研究中 不可缺少的性別觀點

Discussing the Indispensable Gender Perspective in Medical Research Through the Lenses of Biological Sex, Gender, and Intersectionality

由性別醫學所帶動、在醫學研究中增加性別分析的趨勢，在國際上與臺灣都受到極大的重視。使用性別分析來進行研究，即是在研究的每一個階段中，以生理性別(sex)、社會性別(gender)和交織性(intersectionality)分析來進行檢視研究設計中的性別盲點，亦即以「性別化創新」的概念來進行醫學研究。運用性別分析可以幫助我們檢討過去被視為理所當然的「預設值」。從性別的視角出發，讓我們可以看見更多其他的受壓迫主體和身體經驗，修正過去以預設值為醫學研究的基礎，增進各個性別主體的福祉。

 

The trend of incorporating gender analysis in medical research, driven by gender medicine, has garnered considerable attention both internationally and in Taiwan. Conducting research with gender analysis involves examining each phase of the research through the lenses of biological sex, gender, and intersectionality, to identify blind spots in research designs. This approach, referred to as gendered innovation, utilizes gender analysis to reassess what have traditionally been considered default assumptions. Adopting a gender perspective, we can acknowledge more of the oppressed individuals and bodily experiences, rectify past assumptions used as the foundation for medical research, and enhance the well-being of individuals across all genders.
