The field of nursing in the past has been considered a stereotypically feminine vocation, but in recent years an increasing number of men have begun to enter. The present study shows the present day men entering the nursing profession as possessing adequate self-concept, level of ego strength, self-esteem, and male sexuality. They are comparable to other men in the various areas of personality explored and have less need to rely upon fantasy in their everyday functions than control peers in this study.
