I agree with the article. Firefighting is not a sexy job, however the PEOPLE performing the job may be "sexy." It seems that today's society has confused a "sexy" job with WHO performs the job as being "sexy." Firefighting is a life-threatening job at times, but can also be very heroic. One may also perceive heroic as "sexy." Hollywood also pumps up the image of firefighters with movies such as "Backdraft," "Ladder 49, etc. If all plumbers had physiques of bodybuilders, then that job would most likely be perceived as "sexy" too.
