Eh, pain is relative. If you think hospitals today are less sexist workplaces than software companies, you might pick med school.

I hope that it's clear to most people that there isn't a single reason for the disparity though. People are complicated.

I'm not talking about hospitals today. I'm talking about potential gatekeepers in the 60's and 70's.

I (and others from looking at some sibling comments) didn't see your comment as being about gatekeepers, but rather about the environment being perceived as unfriendly towards, so women seeking out different fields.
