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.

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.

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
