Nurse Magazine "just for men"

RNonsense · Mar 22, 2003

"We're not going to take away the big part that the females have played in nursing, rather we want to show why, that in this time of shortage, males make up less than 6% of 2,189,000 Registered Nurses in the United States."

Y'know...that's all fine and dandy. I have a feeling if we published a Nursing 'zine that was for females only we'd be in a wee bit of kaka...

Women already DO publish lots of magazines that are for women only, and men already DO the same thing for men. None about kaka, though. Those magazines are for everyone.

Yep, same as if there were a White Nurses Association to counter act the Black Nurses Association. Just a wee bit of kaka. (btw I support minority associations and zines)

O K So the Men only thing ??.............................Nah..

But what I would like is a place to find more mens uniforms and shoes oh yea..... and those.....?you know... holster things on belts to carry all your stuff in.

Seriously what does gender have to do with it as long as we are all passionate about what we do?

There is probably wouldn't be sufficient subscribers to financially support a specialty magazine of this type. How about a regular feature as a department in the current magazines?

Call it "Men at Work" or something catchy like that.
