I couldn't teach children. It's my idea of hell. Young people, cool. I'll teach university students with delight. But kids? No.

I've known some awesome male nurses and carers. And I have knownguys working unfulfilling sales jobs that would probably have made fantastic nurses had that ever been presented to them as something other than an oddity when they were growing up.

You don't break down barriers by erecting a smaller fence made of the same wood.
