I get a mixed bag of comments.

Some people tell me how wise I am for making this decision and I will be very successful.

Others try not to mock me while they churn up visions of women in candy striper uniforms.

My wife was mixed, but supportative. In-laws wonder why I need a new career and don't just "get a normal job". My son (15) was concerned with the the gay image. My daughter (21) was totally supportative. My sister thought it was great.
But most importantly, I think it's fantastic!

Hey dont worry about what others think about your career choice. If this is what you wanna do then go for it! Im a male nursing student and there aint a gay bone in my body. I think subconsciencely im in it to meet the ladies. I love all you females out there!!!!!
