Anyone else feel the whole "men in nursing" or "male nurse" thing is kind of annoying to constantly hear about? I always seem to hear "oh, we need more male nurses" and yadayada. But, really why does it matter? What makes a guy so special besides a girl? We just have the hang low, they don't.
Now, I am not complaining about the fact that sometimes men can have an advantage hiring wise and such, but that does not make it right. In nursing, should anyone really give a **** if your a male or a female?
Im just curious if any of you guys feel the same way.
I still find it amusing when I walk into a patients room and they assume I am the doctor just because I am a male. The stereotype set in place many years ago will never be broken down.
