Ethical Language Guidance

Gender History

Care work, emotional labor, and 'helping' roles have been historically feminized and undervalued; women's help is often expected as obligation rather than recognized as skilled labor.

Inclusive Usage

Acknowledge help as skilled work; clarify whether helping is voluntary, compensated, or mutual rather than gendered obligation.

Inclusive Alternatives

["assists","supports","enables","collaborates"]

Empowerment Note

Women's unpaid and paid care work (nursing, teaching, social services) has been systematically undercompensated; reframing help as professional expertise recognizes this contribution.
