Why does everyone insist on the university so much? It's not for everyone.

Well that's true, but unless one has an aptitude for business or a trade then they are out of luck. It's difficult to get a good paying job without a college degree, particularly for a woman who isn't into manual labor.

BTW, you ever try crawling around the back of an ambulance in a scrub dress? The paramedics seem to get a kick out of watching it. So much for modesty.

Someone had once said that a woman who decided to persue a religious vocation was twice a woman. Or something along those lines. . .

Are you implying that just because a woman has not married she should enter a convent? I'd make a lousy nun and I haven't given up on getting married despite all the predictions of the doom and gloom crowd. The religious life is a calling and I don't have it.

No, but I have had to leap up on one of those high beds in ICU to do CPR. A short dress would be totally immodest and you would never be able to make the leap and would probably end up toppling backwards off the bed if your knees got caught in long skirts. At those times I am very grateful for my scrub pants with the elastic waist.
I've also had to wrestle a few patients in DT's about three times my size. Glad I was wearing pants.
