The article focuses on personal experiences, feelings and needs related to being an informal caregiver of an elderly person. It uses the existing data as well as data collected by the author in 2019 (targeted selection of informal caregivers for elderly persons; 159 open interviews with a checklist). It was found, among other things, that most informal carers are kinship carers, women, who are more likely to have negative – rather than positive – experiences and feelings. Most of all, caregivers need time, including time to rest, and support.

W artykule skupiono się na doświadczeniach i uczuciach oraz potrzebach związanych z pełnieniem roli nieformalnego opiekuna osoby starszej. Wykorzystano dane zastane oraz wywołane – wyniki badań własnych zrealizowanych w roku 2019 (dobór celowy; 159 wywiadów swobodnych z listą poszukiwanych informacji przeprowadzonych z nieformalnymi opiekunami osób starych). Badania te wykazały m.in., że opiekunami nieformalnymi są najczęściej opiekunowie rodzinni, kobiety; opiece tej towarzyszą – częściej niż pozytywne – negatywne doświadczenia i uczucia, a opiekunowie najbardziej potrzebują czasu, w tym na odpoczynek oraz wsparcia.

In the article the author indicates the existence of different opinions on the meaning of gender and sex. In this context she refers to Raewyn W. Connell's the theory of gender according to which all types of masculinity and femininity existing in society today are dominated by hegemonic masculinity. She presents the results of her own research which is aimed at discovering young men's prejudice towards their own sex. The research examines the subject of men studying nursing and working as nurses. Even though the results of the analysis do not allow to state the crisis of masculinity, they certainly prove the necessity of redefining what is manly. In the face of the asymmetry of demographic processes and the pessimistic diagnosis of the numbers of nurses and midwives in the near future the thinking patterns existing among the examined group, which stress the feminine character of the above mentioned studies and profession are quite disturbing. The profession, often related by the respondents with low income, is in their opinion irreconcilable with the image of man, embedded in their mentality as the main breadwinner.
