"Wear kiss-proof lipstick": What '60s romance novels teach us about nurses
Categories: Studies in Crap

That's the game at this week's Studies in Crap over on our Style Council blog. There, your Crap Archivist digs into a big 'ol box of 60s nurse romance novels recently discovers at a Los Angeles book sales. In books like Nurse Dormitory and The Taming of Nurse Conway we can revisit the days when doctors talked to nurses like this:
"'If you were even a few years younger I'd turn over my knee and give you the thrashing you deserve!'"Or like this:
"Wear kiss-proof lipstick, Veronica. There might be a bit of necking on the evening's schedule."
There's much more where that came from over in this week's Studies in Crap!
