I've had a rather tumultuous relationship with nursing and nurses in general.
Having pursued a medical career for the first fifteen or so years of my working life I encountered them daily and as you might guess ...
Sometimes those encounters were reasonable while others were not.
Be all of this as it may I never wanted to be a nurse.
I felt it to be a feminine designation and I could picture all the male nurses engaged in some bizarre breast feeding ritual or popping a few midol after shooting a tampoon up their butts among other things female and therefore I had little regard for the male nurse period.
My contempt for male nurses remains to this day.
So today is International Nurses Day.
It is an annual event observed by all the afficinados of nursing conducted each May 12th — corresponding to Florence Nightingale's birthdate.
I do feel that nurses contribute to society.
I just think male nurses should have been prohibited but to each pansy candy ass his own.
