It's a man's world: Challenging nursing stereotypes | Sean Morton | TEDxBrayfordPool

Started nursing school last week (turn 43 next month). Just finished up some homework. Do it guys!

I am a male nurse having trained in the 80s I can totally relate to what is being described in this talk. If you are a man and you want to be a nurse go for it. It’s a great job there are lots of opportunities and you will get to meet lots of people ignore the gender stereotypes and go for it. Nursing needs more men.

I’m currently a wildland firefighter looking to make the shift into nursing. I’ve been a teacher previously and dealt with many of the same issues that you discussed. As a male who has worked in both heavily male and female dominated work forces, I welcome those challenges. I just want to have a better work-life balance while still providing for my family and doing a job I believe in.

Mens nurses are very excellent at their jobs. I know a lot of them here in Italy.

Great talk by a brillant nurse and teacher. It is so important that we challenge stereotypes! I would be incredibly proud if my Son decided to go into nursing!

Dropped out of nursing school for the same reasons.

All sounds rhetorically well until you deal with being marginalized on the daily.

[nathaniliescu]

Says he's proud to be a nurse but says men shouldn't be nurses? Eh?

[samuel]

I dunno, this bloke sounds like a bit of a snowflake. No wonder he's a nurse.
