More like it's uncommon to see in her work . If it were a random saying it then I'd say it's sexism but it's a whole medical practitioner who has probably seen countless births so if she is surprised it's because it isn't something they see all the time not because she's taking a jab at men or whatever.
I don't think it can just be labeled as sexism though because they haven't given a reason or trait that makes men not be there for their partners. Some are in the room but keep their distance, some are right next to their partner, some don't even make it into the room .
It's sexist to expect a certain individual to act a certain way based on their gender just like it's racist to expect a certain individual to act a certain way because of their ethnicity.
But it's humor, let's just admit that yeah it's sexist but it's maybe funny for some people and move on.
Edit : I saw the other replies, I insist yes this is sexism even if it's related to a certain reality, and on the other hand I don't get why some men get so butthurt over this, there is plenty of boys Vs girls memes that are also sexist.
Ah also the joke of the video wasn't about that at all, the nurse is shocked by a slap noise in the original video.
