I feel like a surprisingly large number of women list their occupation as “nurse.” Is there a reason for that?

This content is machine-translated.
Is “nurse” used as a placeholder when someone doesn’t want to disclose her real occupation?

I’m a male member, BB7. There are plenty of nurses, too, but sometimes it’s unclear whether they actually work as nurses, merely hold a nursing license, or are currently working in another field. Dental hygienists and dental assistants are paid ridiculously little, but since dentists hire them based on their looks alone, I imagine there are quite a few of them on UniClub as well. There are plenty of old-school bubble-era guys with a middle-school-level obsession with becoming a CA, but when you actually meet these women, they’re just ordinary women—there’s not much difference between them and the girls working in the Green Car on the train.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here as well. > If she doesn’t want her actual occupation disclosed, is there an option to list her as a nurse or something? No, there isn’t. Even when she doesn’t want to disclose it, we have her give a vague description of her occupation without actually lying. Basically, we ask everyone not to lie about their occupation. That may sound a bit naive, but we do tell them not to lie. If the lie is discovered, the man will complain, the arrangement with him won’t work out, and she’ll be forcibly removed from the club. There’s also a possibility that the club could seek damages from her. > Girls who claim to be flight attendants should probably have their employee IDs checked. That’s true. But if we did that, maybe they’d decide registering as ordinary office workers is easier since they wouldn’t want to bring proof with them. For men who want to date a flight attendant, it might actually work out well—they could meet one while paying the setting fee for a lower tier. > What’s the basis for flight attendants being placed in a higher class? I’m not really sure either. They receive offers even without photos, so maybe it isn’t necessarily about being beautiful or anything like that. Perhaps it’s a kind of brand image? If that’s the case, it may be because the flight attendants in the past were so impressive that they established that brand. Maybe it’s simply that their predecessors made such a strong impression.

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member. As dramas like Satomi Ishihara’s and Masataka Kubota’s show, there are many different types of jobs in hospitals. So it’s fairly common for someone to simply say they’re a nurse because it’s easier to understand, and then explain the details when they meet in person. Some women do this because explaining their actual job is complicated, and plan to clarify it when they meet. Also, many of the group dates arranged by my high school classmates were with nurses. Nurses are highly trusted, so we sometimes ended up planning trips together. In some cases, the couples even got married after meeting that way—both had connections through university or high school classmates. P.S. Since COVID, there were periods when even dental clinics and newly opened hospitals were practically empty due to having so few patients, so lately I feel like more dental hygienists and nurses have been signing up for the first time. Before that, as Mac mentioned, I don’t think they were seen very often. Though perhaps office workers simply don’t leave as strong an impression… P.S. Mac, It’s true—you can claim pretty much any profession you want. Like in Nanako Matsushima’s drama *Yamato Nadeshiko*, I feel that a little embellishment is acceptable when it comes to creating opportunities for men and women to meet. People with favorable terms may keep them hidden, while those without them may claim better ones. If it helps them get the chance to meet someone, I don’t think that’s necessarily a problem. Whatever brings two people together, once they meet, they can get to know each other and possibly build a relationship. I don’t think that’s a bad thing. P.P.S. Mac, Yes, exactly. People with favorable terms do tend to keep them hidden. I rarely come across female doctors, so I can’t really say, but men often keep quiet about being dentists, their professions (I’m not a doctor—the friends I go with are), their high income, or their educational background when they attend parties or other places to meet people. If they meet someone that way, they probably want to reveal those things later on. As a man, I’m not particularly happy when someone is interested in me based solely on my circumstances…

I’m Rin, a female member. I heard from someone involved with Sugar○ that they also have a lot of nurses there. I think it’s because the job involves far more than the so-called “3 Ks”—there are countless other “Ks” too. There are plenty of workplaces where the stress and exhaustion are so overwhelming that even talking about them feels like too much effort. Healthcare workers routinely have hours that aren’t even guaranteed proper pay, with unpaid time justified by things like a sense of duty or calling. I think they may be looking for what you might call comfort—or simply fair, clearly defined compensation. P.S. Imagining and fantasizing can be fun, can’t they? At the same time, I do wonder what anyone really has to gain by lying. Nurses’ base salaries are really low. Most employers set the base pay low on the assumption that nurses will work night shifts and holidays. Also, I should add that even if someone isn’t at their branch, there are cases where they can’t keep it hidden, no matter how much they want to. It’s probably best to decide whether to bring it up—and when—based on the person you actually meet.
