Reasons to smile...

Gender stereotypes.

I've had limited blip opportunities again but thought I'd highlight the fact that this is what a nurse looks like. Clearly in a wee nurses dress and hat. I had a lovely male nurse in earlier who looked nothing like that. He was in a top and trousers and no hat. He didn't have such shapely legs either. The other nurses were calling him sweet cheeks. He looked much older than most of them. I thought it a bit odd.

I know its a clear sign for nurse but surely we need accurate representation. Imagine the confusion pushing this button and someone who looks nothing like this expectation comes along.
