being a nurse..a man's job?

this thought suddenly came to me...a man being a nurse...how do u actually see that picture? because ages ago men usually do work like carpenter, electrician, engineer and etc..all those so called manly jobs..being a nurse? since when was that? well to me its not wrong a guy being a nurse..what difference it makes compared to other jobs is how the society sees it...

well honestly they should give it a better name for men..for instance flight attendance..they have stewardess for woman and steward for man..the name 'nurse' is normally adapt to a mind of a woman job...if i were to say to u suddenly the word nurse, who would appear in your mind? to be more specific what gender? haha..let me guess..a woman right? yeah..i can read minds..haha..nope..its just to obvious unless there's a guy u know work as nurse then u would think of him first..

personally its still an honest job..you are helping sick people at hospital...eventhough they are not doctors but they do help in making the patience to get better...after the doctor had diagnose and treat the patience...then the nurse will take care of everything..from giving medicine and taking blood pressure..all those little things that u dont usually see as important...

i can see many guys that i know who gets a nurse course for degree would try to change the course to anything and not that...i say many..why ashamed being a nurse guys?scared of being picked at?..seriously i told it had to be the name..are they worried because its not manly...scared that it will embarassed your dad?maybe..i dont know but try to imagine this..

uncle/ relative :my son is studying engineering now. how about your son?
dad : my son is studying nursing at a local university.
aunt/relative: oh. the same with my daughter.
dad : great........
....................awkward................

haha...thats just how the society behaves..our culture makes see that job for a guy its just not suitable...we seriously have to change the perspective of people towards this topic..its not wrong a guy being a nurse..like peter petrelli who played as milo ventimiglia in 'heroes'..and fyi in that tv series he's a nurse..and he is not ashamed but only his father is..well its only a tv series...but the point is that i still dont see the fault if a guy being a nurse..

ahaha..a very hot peter petrelli as a nurse ;p

basically any job is good enough for anyone..it can be a doctor, engineer or even a nurse.. :)
