Problem using enum with vector?

I have a simple container class with an enum:

class MyObject {
    typedef enum {
        etype1,
        etype2
    } EType;
};

In another class I have a vector:
std::vector<MyObject::EType> type_vec;

Compiling works okay up to this point, but I need a vector of my enum types.
If I try to add one:

type_vec.push_back(MyObject::etype1);

I get a compiler error C2666 "etc etc" 2 overloads have similar conversions.

I use this enum in many places without a problem, just creating and using a
vector of them seems to be a problem.

What am I doing wrong?
