I just had to vent about this recent video that I saw on Comcast "The Fan". It is a video about a new requirement that one Spain hospital is requiring of their nurses. The newscast states that these nurses must wear mini-skirts in order to receive a bonus each month. But, if that were not bad enough in itself, the way the Fox News crew that talk about the newscast is even more disturbing. I pray that one day these sickening comments and stereotypes will go away. If any of you have a way to spread the word that this is not the way that nurses need to be portrayed, please pass this along and share this story/video or post here how others can help and let's help stop the sexist views of our profession.
ironic to be watching this after I had a drunken crachead that was 25 try to feel me up at work last night. It didn't dissuade him at all when I told him I had a 26 y/o son.
What do you think his chances of rehabiliation are?
I actually feel sorry for the kid if a 50 y/o gets him excited. He must not have much of a social life.
I hope that everyone on that newscast gets very sick and has to go to the hospital for real.
I don't want them to die, just be real sick and scared for a short time. Then they can get better and maybe have learned a little
By the way the crachead left ama, quess he didn't think there was much chance of getting any entertainment from his old lady nurse
thank you, i didn't know this site existed but i've always been interested in improving the public's image of nursing and want to be a part of changing the future "face" of nurses. thanks again!!!
I think this is ridiculous!! I thought it was a joke at first too! I'll start wearing a skirt when I see the men do it first!! Come on guys...get to shaving!! :wink2:
Yesterday, I tried to find the humour in this segment as I was shocked. However, today when looking for the video from the source to see if it truly was a broadcast of Fox News, there it was plain as day. After watching it again I found it much more offensive and wrote a letter to Fox, the main sight not the program, and offered my own insight into the program's manner of projecting this article. I encourage everyone else to do the same. Thanks for the link.
I just can't believe it, absloutely speechless....such a dissapointment from all members of the news cast. The woman are pathetic, and the jerk of a guy who said that all nurses are ugly. America makes me so sad sometimes......
NURSES, PLEASE STOP BUYING THOSE RIDICULOUS BETTY BOOP NURSING BAGS- it only perpetuates the sterotype! Last year the Nursing Image Leader (or something like that) of our SNA had one. That troubled me.
Umm, I wouldn't buy that! *hides ridiculous beety boop nursing bag behind her*.
