Male Chest Hair and Scrub Tops

[Thunderwolf]

What is your vote?

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?

I said I'd send in a photo of my chest hair and I'm following through on the threat! Here's a picture of me taken a few (many) years ago!

You are a hoot!!! Thanks for making me and my husband a laugh.........

It has been a brutally rainy and kind of depressing week here in the Phoenix desert. I won't bore you with all of the details, but suffice it to say that a little laughter was just what we both needed.

i think that a t-shirt would look much more professional. although....chest hair is sexy.

cast my vote, and as a male with a hairy chest i would say let it all hang out, its too damn hot to wear anything underneath. anyway i am sure when i bend over and my top opens the female nurse i'm working with is not distracted, just as when they bend over and i stare down their cleavage, i'm not distracted!!

Now Im too old to be interested in cleavage anymore. Unless mabe they have a new golf club nestled inbetween those things. New golf clubs always get my attention.

Keep it in thew short grass yall

p.s. Ok I lied. Ive seen a few cleavages at work that definitely get my attention, but thats why they show them off also isnt it, I may be old but I am not dead. At least no yet. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I don't wear t-shirts because I don't like the way they hang down below my sleeves.

I also have a hairy chest and wear my scrubs without a t-shirt. I morificecape and trim the hairs because I don't like the hair hanging out the v-neck, bt it's very clear I have hair on my chest.

I don't think it should be mandated one way or another just because a guy has a hairy chest.

hehe-I wish my husband had enough chest hair to "manscape" What exactly are we discussing? If a guy is so hairy that hunks of it are falling into his sterile field then I guess he should wear a t-shirt-do they make hair nets for other parts of the body? Our chief of staff has the grossest HAIRIEST knuckles I have ever seen....I we are speaking about professional image I don't think male or female cleavage is a problem...Tastefully displayed,of course....If a guy looks like he's carrying a monkey around his neck then he had better take him from Tweety and the Queer eye guys and learn the art of manscaping....On the other hand if a gals boobs are dangling down to her hips and half of her breakfast bagel is stuck in between the, then she has a BIGGER problem---and had better get a really good bra....(.I would HATE to have to layer up to cover my boobage-the hot flashes are bad enough now....)

I dont believe that you should be required to wear tshirt but, I never ever.....go to work without one underneath...I do not know what happen, but around 24 a jungle grew out of my chest...occasionaly I trim..but i think it is gross...but maybe I can transfer that hair to my head when im older!!!

[kevcam]

I'll hide my chest hair when the women nurses who need a shave do so.

Fair enough?

[LPNer]

Many grown guys have at least some chest hair. That's just the way it is. There's nothing wrong about it.

I guess as a society we've made all the women look as prepubescent as we can so now we're starting on the men.

Isn't that the truth! I thought it was just me since I am getting to old to look young anymore. LOL Maybe not, I justm ight have been right about thinking they all look, or try to look 12.

WOW, what a truth!
