Women in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" are portrayed as evil and scary figures with the exception of prostitutes who are seen as good. This is very strange because normally prostution is frowned upon in society. None of the men in the institution respect Nurse Ratched and see her as mean and that she doesn't deserve their respect. I believe these men have this bad view of women because they have all been hurt or betrayed by women before. Men in the story are wanting to portray their masculinity and hate being emasculated by women.

I think that the men that work in the hospital are scared of Nurse Ratched and that is why they act like they do. The patients do no like her because she is the person that tells them no and runs their lives inside the institution.
