Re: Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

Holy moly, what a thread. I personally don't care. I used to work with a surgeon whose chest hair hung waaay out the top of his scrub top and nobody thought anything of it. It's natural, it's not a big deal. My dh is not a very hairy guy & has never had to worry about it but if I were a patient I wouldn't care if my nurse were a man with a hairy chest.

And almost 3 years after Wolfie's original post, here we are still talking about it....

My daughter who is in Navy tells me that the males MUST wear a t- shirt under scrub tops in the military clinics and hospitals.

I can see both sides. But I'm a hairier guy and I opt for wearing t-shirts. The military requires a cleaner look. That's not to say some of our military nurses go Clark Gable and ditch the undershirt.

Re: Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

I think it's damn sexy, leave them alone!! What about all the doctor shows, you always see chest hair. On the other hand, I don't think I would like to see some chicks chest hair peeking out of a scrub top(OK call me sexist!,lol)

Totally agree.
I love chest hair so I don't have a problem with it.
My main concern though is that it can get hot in hospitals, is this a good idea to be adding clothes?

Re: Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

This is the funniest thing I have read in a long time that is actually related to nursing!!!!!!! What is worse I totally have been getting visuals in my head of chest hair hanging out of scrub tops! [ugh] I personally am not into hairy chests and prefer to see a T-shirt taming the fur

Oh and thanks for teaching me a new term: manscaping....are you serious? LOL
