A survey has revealed that Australians find the jobs of doctors, nurses, and tradies to be the sexiest occupations.
The poll of more than 9000 Australians by online dating website RedHotPie.com.au showed that 12 percent of men surveyed nominated healthcare and medical professions as the hottest jobs for women, while 16 percent of ladies nominated the trades and service industries.
After coming top in the poll Perth nurse Jak Smith, 49, agreed her occupation had a sexy reputation.
"You say you're a nurse and their eyes glaze over - you can tell they're imagining a short skirt and stilettos," News.com.au quoted her as saying.
"We don't wear little sexy outfits like people think we do. I do think the Skyhooks had it right though with their song Women in Uniform.
"The tradies do a good job when they take their shirts off too ... I think any good body, in or out of uniform, can be sexy," she said.
Former soldier Tyrese Mutaya, 31, said he'd appreciated a sex-appeal boost since switching uniforms to become an aged-care nurse.
"In the army there are very few women so the women get all the attention but in nursing it's about 80 percent women so the men get more attention," he said.
