So, pretty much the answer is “Sexy women are everywhere”? From what I know about men, that’s sort of what I expected. 😛 ---

[QUOTE=cowgirl] Bike couriers. Yum. [/QUOTE] That’s for sure. I saw one in front of my office the other day who was head-turningly cute. Very tomboyish. My personal choice: photographer. I work alongside a lot of photographers, and the women who know their stuff behind the camera are often sexier to me than the women in front. ---

[QUOTE=alphaboi867] The last time I was in hospital I had one Filipina nurse in her early 20s. All the others were my mom’s age or older. Granted I’m gay so I was dissapointed either way. 😉 [/QUOTE] Just gotta hijack for a second: I was in the hospital a while back, and the best nurse I had was a gay man who always greeted me by walking in the room, pinching my big toe, and saying, “Hey, howya doing?!” Somehow, it was the perfect greeting when I was feeling miserable and depressed. Sorry, you just reminded me of that, and it was a pleasant memory. Thanks. ---

Nursing student here. Yes, we’re pretty darn hot where I’m coming from. And there are straight guys going into the field. Cute, smart, young ones who have their pick of the numerous ladies in the class. We were talking about it just the other day, teasing one 19-year-old kid about how hard it was going to be to stay faithful to his girlfriend during nursing school. There’s actually a nursing shortage right now, and with the job market being fairly crummy, a lot of bright young people are going into nursing. And nurses are very well-trained these days–my classes are intense! I expect a huge resurgence of the “hot nurse” fantasy in a few years. ---

[QUOTE=fetus] I don’t know if they’re touring right now, but check out the Donnas. I saw them open for Jimmy Eat World in 2002. All-woman rock band, typical rhythm section, and the drummer–yow! She’s hot, but on top of that she _rocks the fuck out_, getting down and swinging her hair everywhere while she’s playing. [/QUOTE] Lez Zeppelin. See them if you are in NYC. 'Nough said. ---

[QUOTE=fetus] Clearly, you haven’t met a representative sample of the women in the armed forces. [/QUOTE] You are aware there are several websites devoted to female members of the Israeli Defense Force, right? Experiment if you have a Google search bar: Put in “IDF” and wait for it to make suggested searches. “IDF girls” is fifth. If any other state has a non-sexist policy on compulsory military service, they probably have similar pictures of hot solder ladies. ---

I guess I’ll have to add [Red Army](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roza_Yegorovna_Shanina) [Snipers](http://i5.tinypic.com/20ksz1d.jpg) to the list, too. Yowza. Those ladies can shoot me in the head from ten blocks away, then later dig up my mass grave and cannibalize my partially-frozen corpse with a side of sawdust bread in the bowels of a besieged city _any_ day! 😃 ---

[QUOTE=zelie zelerton] I’m so hoping somebody will say traindriver. [/QUOTE] Hey, I can’t claim on the “sexy” part, seeing as I’m into guys, but seeing a tram, subway or bus female driver always makes me smile. Does that count? If I go to London again, I want a pic with you and your train-of-the-day 🙂 ---

Astronaut. Something about that combination of Tang and urine… Not a job but farmers’ daughters. I’m taken back to memories of taking tubs of cherries to the packer with my grandfather, and when he stopped by the Riley farm to see how they were doing, there they were. The Riley girls. Standing by a big tub of cherries in water and picking out the bad ones. In their bikinis. ---
