Should a male nurse wearing a scrub top and has chest hair be required to wear a T shirt underneath in order to cover up the chest hair?

Yeah, I've got a hairy chest. And an ugly face. Should I wear a mask over my face to aesthetically please some people?

:lol2: :msk:

why would chest hair bother me?

it's much more professional than seeing a female's cleavage in a scrub top.

Or "tramp-stamp" and "whale-tail" when they bend over.....

I know what a tramp stamp is - what's a whale tail???

I can make a guess on "whale-tail"- what's a "tramp-stamp"?

Tramp stamp is a tat on the low back right above the butt......

Whale tail?????

Whale tail : thong hanging out of pants???

yup...it's when someone bends over, and you see the triangle of thong fabric stick up over the back of their waistband.... I know this A: because I have a lot of sisters, B: Nurses do a lot of bending over.

Thanks Steve -

I actually told one nurse to go buy new scrubs because I did NOT appreciate knowing that she was wearing a purple Victoria's secret thong! She did a back check before coming into work after that.

That nurse referred to it as a "T-Bone Steak" though....

Not a look I care for but please aren't we all adults?
