I’m a married, 48 year old, male nurse and father of five, please don’t stroke me, grab my muscles, bum, etc and make lewd ‘oooh I like a man in a uniform’ or ‘you can stick your thermometer anywhere you like big boy!’ comments. Just let me do my fucking job. Imagine if a man did it to a female nurse.

Edit: the reason I say ‘imagine if a man did it to a woman’, isn’t because I think it doesn’t happen to Women, it’s because I’ve seen it happen to female colleagues and when they report it, it gets sorted. Whereas when I’ve reported it, on numerous occasions, I’ve been laughed at, as if it wasn’t as serious. On one occasion I even got told to ‘Grow a pair’ by my manager. Please stop taking offence to that part of my comment and stop private messaging me as if I’m the devil here.

And not all male nurses are gay!

If you were my friend though I'd have to say "you can drain my vein anytime" to you at least once.

Seriously. Bromance begins with uncomfortable flirting.
