I agree with Cindy......you need a new girlfriend. She saying a lot about how she feels for you if she is saying nursing is for females only. Nursing is a job for both sexes. Some of the most macho men I know are nurses and darn good ones too!! We can't afford to lose another "nurse" period b/c his/her girlfriend doesn't like the job! Do what you want, follow your dream no partner is worth not following your heart's desire.
Good luck....you will always have SUPPORT here!!!!
Uh, if you're looking at getting your Master's, I'm assuming you already have a Bachelor's in Nursing. That seems a little late for your girldfriend to start objecting. Are you supposed to throw away not only your career but a 4-year degree to conform to her sexist, stereotypical, and incredibly outdated ideas of what a "real man" does?Originally posted by charlesciscoi am a guy trying to go for my master in nursing, but my girlfriend said that she does not like nursing because it is for ladies /Females. Please what do you say.
I can't even begin to count all the ways that is f'ed up. Not only do you need a new girlfriend, you need a smarter one. Perhaps you could find one in grad school.

DANG!!! I better tell my brother!! He's a nurse!
Seriously, Nursing is not gender specific. As a matter of fact, there are few professions anymore that are.
I work with several male nurses and it's great!
