Hey, Roger!
I can't speak for the other ladies, and I certainly know a lot of the
types of people you are speaking about, but under no remote
circumstance would I have ever been considered one of them. Not only
was I one of the least popular people of all time, quite nerdy at
that, my IQ is over 140. I graduated second in my class of 700, and
that with not being at school too much because of volunteer work I did
off campus. I'm not saying this to toot my horn, but just to say that
I was anything except an airhead. I would guess for me they were in
escape or dreaming of my future in healthcare. I eventually was
accepted to medical school, but could not afford to go. I have,
however, dedicated my life to learning, helping, and assisting those
with chronic health issues.
For what it's worth...
Valerie

Those of you who are fans of nurse books please don't take offense
at this. I am only talking about a vague impression I had in the
past that was not based on much in the way of facts. When I was in
high school I did notice that a number of people were reading nurse
books. I had no reason to be interested in those books myself, but I
noticed that virtually every person who I saw carrying them around
were those who I would have classified as the airhead caucus of the
female student body, so I came to think of nurse books as airhead
books. After leaving high school I never gave that impression a
thought again and, indeed, I never gave nurse books a thought again
because I don't think I ever saw one again. That is, I never gave
them a thought again until the subject came up here. Now I wonder if
the nurse books you folks are talking about are the same ones I saw
when I was in high school.
