[QUOTE=Siam Sam]  
And Arnie lecherously agrees that yes, these ladies ARE in fact too attractive to be working in a video-rental store? Thailand is a lot like that.

So is Cuba, but the nurses don’t wear high heels. Poor Thai nurses. ☹

[QUOTE=guizot]  
What in the world makes a uniform “sexy”? A nurse is someone who takes your weight, measures your height, and takes your blood pressure. What could be “sexy” about that?

If you think a nurse is “sexy” simply because she (or he) wears a uniform, what about the meter maid or meter man who issues you a parking ticket?

Around here, most nurses are in such a hurry to get their job done that you barely have a moment to give them a second thought.

I suppose if you’re a man who is attracted to Filipinas, that may have something to do with it.

Are you serious?  
It’s a FANTASY. Is there any job that’s really sexy? Not too many. It’s the imagination of someone doing something they wouldn’t ordinarily do that makes it fun to think about. \*Oh here’s this sweet, pretty, innocent nurse. Whoops, she’s giving me a sponge bath, and look what happens. :eek: \*

What? What happens?!?!

Did she spill the soapy water? Get some in your eye?

I’m on the edge of my seat here!

While I currently don’t work in a hospital, my feet ache at the memory of long shifts and I can’t imagine wearing high heels!
