Hi Tweety, My comments weren't meant to be taken as anything more than a suggestion, a possiblility among enumerous possiblities. That said, calling women catty doesn't serve anything, especially in the category of accuracy-though disrespectful does come to mind. Great point Steph Mthood :rotfl:

Alison, Again, as was said in a thread before, you have missed the point. But, I am sure the world and the Internet at large is a better place for your efforts. It is not that deep or serious to have solicited such a verbose response. :rotfl:

Hey there, Don't worry so much about the idea of marginalization unless that's just code for self-isolation. If the personality is in check and you have a good care-free attitude the women will come around. A few points of concern for women in the profession is that either the male could present any one of these three areas: gay, sexist, or threat. If a man is gay that could work either his advantage or disadvantage (reasons should be obvious). If a man is sexist (and not in the strictest sense) then a woman could feel a bit on the defensive. And last if the man is a handsome, intelligent, on-point, go-to, hands-on, johnny-on-the-spot sort the she's if for a run for her money. Either way, your knowledge of your profession and the skills you bring to the table will work for you in school or in the field. Mthood :rotfl:

Hi Folks, I am a male graduate practicle nurse and found the comments by Poon120 useful-Sad if anyone took what was said personal or is so sensitive they see themselves as arbiter of all things religious. That said, does anyone have any suggestions or information about preparing for the NCLEX? I have been out of school for 10 years and haven't really ever worked in the field (nursing home for 3 mo. 10 yrs ago). I took the boards 3 times, I must pass this time. Open to any and all encouraging and positive feedback. Mthood :rotfl:
