THE BEST FEMALE LOVERS...

I have lived a very fun and active life. Recently with a group of friends, I was asked to opine about which group of women make the best lovers. And I did not hesitate. In my experience, while there have been some surprise outliers, the best lovers have often held the same occupation: nurses. Most nurses, through their work, have honed a particular set of skills that translates extremely well to the bedroom. Let me explain.

Nurses work hard.

If you have ever worked in healthcare or spent any amount of time in a hospital, you learn very quickly that nurses work hard. Most spend the vast majority of their 8 or 12-hour shifts on their feet. There are also considerable physical demands for a nurse. They often carry equipment and/or supplies, and they often use their physical strength to move or reposition patients throughout their shift. When a client who struggles for long periods to achieve orgasm asks me what she should look for in a lover, I will occasionally recommend that she find a lover with a “blue collar work ethic” — a partner who is not afraid or unwilling to dedicate as much time and energy as she requires for those precious orgasms. And most nurses have that precious blue collar work ethic, and as long as she applies that to her partner’s sexual needs, they are likely to be a very happy person.

Nurses are usually very nurturing human beings.

While there are exceptions to this assumption, most nurses are highly nurturing human beings. For most nurses, providing care, comfort and compassion is all part of a regular day’s work. By tending to the needs of others regularly, most nurses develop into exceptionally skilled caretakers for others. And the critical skill of caring for others requires most nurses to become exceptionally perceptive and “tuned in” to others’ physical and emotional needs. This skill also allows women to quickly understand and appreciate the sexual needs of her partner(s).

Good communicators.

Throughout their days working in a healthcare setting, most nurses become excellent communicators. Coupled with their nurturing and perception skill sets, nurses must also be effective communicators. Nurses often act as essential workers in the heart of a patient care team. Overseeing the work of nurse assistants or other technical staff, nurses must be able to direct and oversee the work performed by subordinate staff to ensure that each patient’s care needs are being met. Additionally, nurses usually act in a critical role of reporting important and often time-sensitive information to the doctors charged with each patient’s healthcare needs. As a result, most nurses learn to communicate a patient’s needs or condition in a very terse and direct manner, and effective communication skills become ingrained into most career nurses fairly quickly. The ability to communicate quickly and effectively is also a common trait among sexually satisfied women.

Familiarity with human anatomy and comfort with their own body.

Before one becomes a nurse, extensive study in the area of human anatomy is required. As a result, most nurses possess greater knowledge about their own anatomy than other adults. Even before one becomes a nurse, she must demonstrate an in-depth understanding of principles of anatomy and physiology and their interrelationships. Many nursing students also study theoretical perspectives on sexuality, anatomy, hormones, sexual dysfunction, gender issues, arousal and communication, attraction and love, sexual orientation, STIs and sexual variation. So an educated and licensed nurse already probably knows more about sex and sexuality than you do!

And as a former healthcare professional myself, being regularly confronted with other nude adults was initially jarring— as I hadn’t experienced exposure to nude adults outside of a very intimate setting. But after about six months of working in a hospital, seeing another adult naked became a regular event. Additionally, despite always having some insecurity about my own body (I was a chubby kid), I very quickly gained greater confidence and comfort in my own body after working in that setting. I expect for any woman with some body insecurity issues, working in a healthcare setting might serve as a sort of “exposure therapy” — forcing them to become more comfortable with the bodies of others and thereafter, their own body too. And in my limited experience, the nurses I have been with have tended to have the highest confidence in their own bodies, which freed them to enjoy sex and intimacy even more than others.

So if you put all of those skills together: hard-working, nurturing and perceptive, good communication skills, knowledge of the human anatomy and sexuality, and comfort in her own body— you get an incredibly formidable sexual partner. I can verify this personally. 😉 So before you swipe left on that dating app, you might want to reconsider… if she is a nurse.
