In the article entitled "Amused
Education-men in nursing: reflections from a female dominated profession,"
by Lynda Lampert, she brought up some really good points about men in the
so-called "female dominate" profession.
Lynda says, "in general, men in
nursing have made the entire profession take a better look at itself. No
longer are the old routines adequate." Her saying this just makes me
happy. I don't not think it should be a big deal that males can be
nurses.
"Women have worked for over a century
to get equal recognition as doctors in their own right." If women can
fight to become doctors, what is the problem with men becoming nurses? I
believe it is the same situation. Men should be nurses if that is what
they desire and not be questioned about it. More power to ya male nurses! Recently
I was in the emergency room visiting a friend and while I was there, her MALE
nurse was wonderful!
