   Hi again, You're the one who brought up the cheese factory, no me. And while I will concede there are some benefits associated to circumcision, they come with a slew of unnecessary risks as...

5. Help Ban Genital Cosmetic Surgery on Children

   Dany102 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Say what, now? I am sorry cynical-RN, but I cannot tell if you are making a joke here or if you are actually serious. Yes, smegma will eventually accumulated under the foreskin if uncleaned but...

6. Help Ban Genital Cosmetic Surgery on Children

   Dany102 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   I was wondering just when circumcision would make its appearance in this tread. I guess it was bound to happen. I understand AN is mostly U. S. - centric and, for reasons beyond me, it is still...

7. Nursing for Intimate care for men

   Dany102 replied to RNMikeMiller's topic in General Nursing

   Hello Satori77, I don't think the issue is whether men deserve modesty or not. Many men are modest, despite what you or anyone else may have observed (and those who say they aren't are likely...

8. Mieux de vie

   Dany102 replied to ali1347's topic in General Nursing

   This is only a wild guess but, if it's something you've heard - rather than read - could you have misheard it? "Mieux" is very similar sounding to "milieu" (if spoken rapidly). And "milieu de vie"...

9. The Stigma of Men in Nursing

10. The Stigma of Men in Nursing

    Dany102 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I am sorry hherrn but I disagree with your first paragraph there. It would seems to me that you are promoting a gender bias. If it is "reality" for a woman to no be comfortable with a man involved in...

    Dany102 replied to jeastridge's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you Jeastridge, for your article. It is well worth mentioning that what we think is best isn't always what's best for someone else.

13. Pension

    Dany102 replied to hellohobbit's topic in Canada

    The advices given by NotReady4PrimeTime are pretty good. But don't underestimate the usefulness of a TFSA. Any extra income should first go into it, then RRSP.

    Dany102 replied to jive turkey's topic in Men in Nursing

    Hello jive turkey, I'm glad to see some nurses are thinking of the patients in that regard. Too bad you seem to be the only one doing it in this thread so far. For what it's worth, thank you.

15. Patient NOT a nurse with a ???

    Dany102 replied to JWFeeII's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Hello JWFeell, No, you were not being overly sensitive at all as far as I know. Privacy is expected (except in some circumstances) when one uses the toilet. Even as a patient. And while I can see...
