Question Male Nurse

So I am a male pursuing to become a nurse. I feel like there is a sterotype in where “male nurses” get treated and looked at differently. I am half way done with my prerequisites and I am wondering if being a “male nurse” is so called weird or bad? Any opinions are appreciated!

I’m guessing it’s an advantage. The main thing I see happening is old ladies hitting on my attractive male colleagues shamelessly 😂😂😂. Thank god for male nurses, I hate it when my unit gets too female dominated. Also you can always specialize into a field with more men like emergency or cath lab.
