Representative War Nurse
Medical personnel who are attractive. Makes you just wanna shout: “Helloooo, nurse!”… Unfortunately for people who expect this trope to be “Truth in Television” (there indeed are some lovely women working as nurses), anyone who has ever been to a real hospital will notice that the nurses are more concerned with their jobs than titillating their patients. They will be wearing little if any makeup, and will always be in “Boring, but Practical” scrubs, which are nowhere near as appealing as the fetishized nurse outfits in media, and you’ll almost never see a nurse on the job with her hair done up like they always do on TV. In fact, this is almost entirely discouraged on ethical grounds, and nurses (and female MD’s, of course) are going to be told to keep the revealing stuff for nightclubs pretty much throughout their medical school education. The fanciest “style” you will likely ever see is a simple ponytail (or possibly a “Prim and Proper Bun”), for hygienic reasons… ~ Hospital Hottie – TV Tropes
