Why do people make fun of male nurses?
 

Where I live, south tx, people respect anyone that goes into any type of medical field, even male nurses. When i chat with people from other places in the US or world, they always make fun of me cause i told them im majoring in Nursing. I also seen them in movies where they make fun of male nurses. :mad:

im sorry. im majoring as a doctor so yea. im in my 6th year and i respect all male nurses. i mean nurses wasnt really a female job tell WW2

Let them make fun. And when you are earning big money and have a choice of where you want to work anywhere in the World they'll be the ones crying. I should have become a nurse too, but it was less accepted when I was in college.:ywave:

that could be. its really sad that some people havent got over that.

thanks. yeah, people just need to understand.

yea. What part of texas do you live in? i live in dallas.

I live in the south part in Brownsvile. Really hot over here.

i guess so. i mean its like 102 over here. i wonder what it is over there.

Ah, my brother and I were just talking earlier about how he wants to be a male nurse.

There's obviously nothing wrong with a male nurse, in fact I find all doctors/nurses to be respected for what they do. Some people just can't absorb that.

Jeez, 102 degrees? Being a winter person and from Maine I know I'd dislike the weather down south horrendously. x'P

yeah, its alot hotter over here. It went up 110F. They even reccomend us not to go outside.Thats how bad it is.
