Ok,just want some opinions.
I am Rn,I've been a nurse for 9 years.
But I just want to attend a lingerie party in April.
Do you think it would be sort of disrepecting my profession if I I wore a sexy nurses outfit?
In the back of my mind it might be,but I'm unsure.
Also,could I be reported to the board if someone I know just happens to see me?
Thanks in advance.
Do whatever you want! I think that an actual nurse wearing a sexy nurse outfit is 100% better than a non-nurse wearing one!
At first, I was nodding my head in agreement, being one who owns a naughty nurse outfit. But then I thought, wait a minute, I have a cop one too lol. But as I previously stated, I only wear my outfits in the bedroom.
Offensive? No on your time do and wear what you want to and do not worry about people on a message board. I am much more concerned about our profession getting on the same page about education and entry points to practice. I am much more interested in the DNP argument or NPs having independent practice. Almost every profession has disrespectful costumes.

Depends on where you wear it.
That said, if you're not sure it's appropriate, DON'T! I wouldn't, but then no one would want to see my aging body in a "sexy" outfit with the possible exception of my husband, and only then if he weren't wearing his glasses. I wouldn't have worn it 30 years ago when I was young, thin and sexy, either. These days, there are camera phones everywhere and I wouldn't want to find a picture of myself on FaceBook . . . .
If it is, I have disrespected Buzz lightyear, cowboys, james bond and many other noble professions. Seriously, have fun with it, who cares.
Haha! I don't agree but your post gave me a laugh. Costume catalogues have "sexy" everything, even Sexy Zombie! I think there's a Sexy Zombie Nurse too.
Personally, I'd rather not reinforce the Naughty Nurse stereotype because it could subliminally encourage raunchy jokes and come-ons from patients.
Good grief. You are up to your eyeballs in bedpans and worse in your unflattering scrubs! Go cut lose and have fun. Owning your sexuality and expressing it in an appropriate place is a positive thing to the profession. Nurses are real men and women, not meek and demure little handmaids. You go, girl!
