  1. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Are you actually serious? How about this biological difference. XX and XY - tell me which one belongs to which

  2. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    So you need research to show you that there IS a biological difference between boys and girls? If you need that research, you need help. But I notice you didn't address the issue of actual university...

  3. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    my sources - the Scandinavian countries. It's shocked the feminists, in fact they are a bit pissed off at this. But those countries provided the most level playing field for men and women, and guess...

  4. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    no problem, but you're thinking with your emotions, not logic. I can get just as emotional seeing the harm being done to little children, in the name of

  5. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not talking about those born with physical abnormalities or chromosomal abnormalities. But when you tell little kids they can be a boy or a girl, you're messing with them. And now we have 3 girls...

  6. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Ever wonder that the suicide rates are the same for those that transition/come out, and those that don't. It would suggest that current treatment isn't working. Have you ever thought that perhaps you...

  7. Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    One girl is struggling with her gender, and now 3 girls who are all friends of the first girl, think they are trans and have asked the doctor for hormones. Two of these girls have issues eg self harm...

  8. Nursing and the supernatural

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Just wondering if anyone has seen some patients near death/in the process of dying, have something supernatural happen. I can't say I've ever seen anything with the deaths I've seen, in fact generally...

  9. Personal Values as a nurse

    nursingaround1 replied to ksurette's topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes it involves recognising your own values that my interfere with giving a certain aspect of care, and learning to deal with it, which may even mean understanding your limits in what you're...

  10. Should I leave this racist town?

    nursingaround1 replied to ChutneyFries's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    that's a tough one, but often the new person gets a hard time, whether it's because of your colour, your accent, or even because you're a guy in a predominately female profession. I found that...

  11. I'm a sexless nurse

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I think I'm professional, but now I'm not so sure, after I told some American friends that as a male nurse, I don't catheterize women. 'That's sexist' was one of the kinder comments, while one of the...

  12. teenagers and pot

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I had a worrying interaction a couple of weeks ago, which fits in with a disturbing trend I've noticed with teenagers. A 16yr old boy was in trouble because of marijuana, and I got chatting with him...

  13. teenagers and pot

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    would names or details make any difference to you. I could get them, but can't be bothered. They've been coming to the school for several years, work mainly with the kids, but do a couple of sessions...

  14. teenagers and pot

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I was at a drug education course at school, with guest speakers from the UK, and I discovered that in 2012 in the UK, more road accidents and deaths were caused by pot than alcohol. The following...

  15. teenagers and pot

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Interesting but fortunately not too.many teenagers get cancer. But sadly they do get hurt by pot in a variety of

  16. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I know confidentiality is considered one of the most important things in medicine, but I learned from a friend working in another country how we in the west treat confidentiality, isn't necessarily...

  17. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I don't feed off anything, although I do get a bit annoyed at the responses, but then I get over it. As for offending people and stereotypes, well, when I trained, nurses had a pretty raunchy...

  18. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Can we get some perspective here. I posted a completely neutral post, with nothing bad, just a thoughtful glimpse of a different culture, and basically people can't help but mock in some form or...

  19. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    This is where you seemed obsessed. There is nothing sexualized, but you seem to see it that way. The simple matter is, where I come from, men treated men in certain procedures, and men did not treat...

  20. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't know about that, but the nurses where I'm from are a pretty raunchy lot. Every 2nd friday night was party at the residence at the back of the hospital, and things usually got out of hand....

  21. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Are you really a nurse? Perhaps you're a manager, because most nurses I know are pretty crude, politically incorrect, and even disrespectful, at when we talk amongst ourselves. You don't fit the...

  22. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Is it not okay to be astonished? Perhaps that's why i am continuing to post. These cultural differences seem so small, but can make a big difference. If I seemed a bit defensive, well, maybe I was,...

  23. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    If you saw the responses I got, you would see why I could be led to believe that. I even had people saying they would be happy for a male to catheterise their 18yr old daughter. Where I come from,...

  24. When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    nursingaround1 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    really? If you think about it, all I did was say I don't put catheters in women, and explained why. One of the reasons being that, where I have worked, I need a female chaperone anyway. Yet it seems...

  25. I am my own worst enemy

    nursingaround1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am crap career nurse. To me, nursing was a way to get by, to work a bit, then travel a lot, work some more, then ski for a winter. Nursing helped me have fun, but I paid nothing back to it, or...
