Are you encouraging other XYs to pursue nursing?

Published

There's a shortage of XY nurses and it would be good to see more male nurses pursue nursing. That can only happen when people start encouraging our XY counterparts, if they are fit to become health/medical professionals. Encourage the male members of your family, relatives, friends, colleagues etc.

I also don't see why nursing education providers aren't giving male applicants a priority in enrolments. It's only fair. I see too many female nurses and nursing students that aren't fit to be nurses in the first place. It's embarrassing that health science faculties are giving green light to unfit "nurses".

Funny that ^^^^. I thought maybe he was looking for footware to enhance a diminutive stature. :sarcastic:

You should see his other ridiculous post on 2 inch+ heels for nursing shoes. Strikes me as a mocking misogynist stir the pot poster to me.

I'm not even..... Nope nope, not gonna indulge in, what seems to be a start of some sort of drama. :sarcastic:

And stalking somehow.

I think more XXYs should be nurses. Pay equity and equal opportunity are far more important to me than a nurse's genes or what they keep inside their Jeans.

Yes that's right. Equal opportunity for all parties.

I see your point but i disagree. Nobody is gonna accept zack, but perhaps a dylan might deserve a place. Like i said, universities have been encouraging female applicants to male dominated degrees - aren't they "deliberately" increasing the amount of females?. I haven't seen this happen with female dominated ones. Not everyone wants female nurses and not every female is capable of being a nurse. It would be good to see some changes.

Dylan would have a spot as long as he is superior candidate.

Thank goodness that not every female decides to be a nurse.

I don't encouirage anyone to be a nurse. We already have a vast oversupply of nurses and I don't want to contribute to the problem. Plus I don't want them blaming me when they are tens of thousands in student loan debt and can't get a job.

Trolling.

In the jeans or in the scrubs... as long as it is left IN. I am a male nurse and would recommend the job to anyone male or female.

I agree.

What country is this?

Unfit based on what? Unfit in what way? Too many med errors? Too many failed NCLEX attempts? What exactly are you talking about?

If you want to pass nursing school, you need to crack down on proving that you are "fit to be a nurse" and stop speculating about the supposed "unfitness" of most of the people in a profession in which you do not yet belong. Only time will tell if your program "gives you the green light", and as a student, you are not yet an authority on whether others are fit for the profession. At this point, it sounds like you are just talking about other people you don't particularly like, which has no bearing on their potential competence as nurses.
