Some jobs are sexier than others.

Most people wouldn't turn down a date with a model, for example, and age-old cliches about men in uniform mean that firefighters, military men and police officers are all going to come out of a contest for the hottest profession well.

But who would have guessed that female dental hygienists are considered sexy?

Tinder only started allowing users to include information about their jobs three months ago. Since then, millions of users have added their jobs to their profiles.
