Users on Facebook, the ultra successful social networking site, virtually given birth to a new user-generated genre: the “Ten Reasons Why You Should Date an XYZ (name of your profession goes here) List.”

Lists have been published on the site for Why You Should Date a Single Mom, a Geek, a Wrestler and hundreds of other categories. Not to be outdone, the medical professions have also posted “Ten Reasons Why You Should Date: a Physician, a Physical Therapist, an EMT, and other medical professions.

Nurses, of course, have their ten reasons. Here is one Top Ten Reasons You Should Date a Nurse List, courtesy of a group on Facebook:

1. They can help you get over a hangover or sickness.

2. Bedbaths!

3. The uniform.

4. They are exposed to so many xrays, it’s like a form of birth control.

5. You will never need to buy condoms, paracetamol, toothbrushes or any hospital supplies.

6. They know how to handle bodily fluids!

7. Nothing shocks a nurse, they have always seen smaller or indeed bigger!

8. They won’t be disgusted by your toilet habits.

9. They are experienced in manual evacuation when you are full of you know what.

10. They know how to handle the human body.

Have another Top Ten Reasons list to share with us? Post it in our discussions on Nursinglink.com.

    I agree with MSJ2U, nurses have a lot more to offer than the the reason listed. I have been a lot of things to people I cared for and just helped because they needed someone there to help them in there time of need. If I am in the hospital, I hope to have a nurse that can see beyond the moment and the physical and help me handle my illness, to listen, because listening is an art is not really common. God bless nurses.

    Wow, as a nurse for 17 years, that might be the most insulting thing I ever read about nursing! No wonder we are such an oppressed society. We really need to get our shit together. Anyone that went through the hell of nursing school and is able to keep up with the demands of this career should be ashamed for thinking that this list is funny. MsJ2U, right on. Jeez, it is closer to a list about why a pervert should date a prostitute.
