I wanted to tell everybody about a guy named Miguel. He is a custodian at a local gym. During a normal workday he is assigned to clean up and mop both the men's and women's locker/shower rooms. Three times a day he enters the women's locker/shower room without knocking and mops their floors while women are changing and showering naked in the shower area. He explains to the women that they shouldn't be embarrassed because he is a professional who's just doing his job.

After mopping for about ten minutes he leaves and comes back with three other men. He explains to any naked woman that tries to object that it's OK because two of the men work here too and the teenager is just there to observe because he's receiving on-the-job training and will soon be a professional as well. "Oh, and by the way," he says, "you have nothing to worry about because we're all gender neutral. None of you have anything we haven't seen before". Most of the women reluctantly agree and go on with their business, ignoring the four men.

As most of you have already figured out, this is a fictional account. But is it really any different than what goes on in hospitals and clinics every day? If a "professional" nurse or student nurse don't let naked men get in the way of doing their job, why should professional custodians (or other professionals) be treated any differently for trying to do their professional job?
