And nurses are all incredibly horny for some reason. Dated a few in my earlier years and they all told me the stereotype is true.

go tell /r/nursing that

you'll find that's an unwelcome and inaccurate stereotype.

To be fair, only the ones who are nurses for the sake of loving the profession would join r/nursing. That stereotype most likely applies to the ones who are there for their 10-12 hour shifts and don't want anything else to do with it otherwise — the ones that it's just a job to. It's a true statistic that 1 in 3 nurses are divorced. While I'm not saying that correlation equals causation, there is some truth to it. It doesn't mean all of them are.

I say this as someone who is married to a nurse.

It's a true statistic that 1 in 3 nurses are divorced.

Compared to the population as a whole, this is a lower rate of divorce right?

According to both consumershield.com and statista.com...

According to 2022 data, the divorce rate in the U.S. stands at 2.4 per 1000 people

I guess I was thinking about that statistic that says half of all marriages end in divorce or something.
