    Can you explain your reasoning?  Hmm

    C&P'd from the good morning thread -

    I actually preferred the male doctors. The women seemed so cold and heartless and I think were WAY more judgy and brutal.

    Why does your H have an opinion on this?

    my H probably wouldn't like it much either, but husky, it's because he knows what in a guy's mind!  ;)  But honestly, H has had to do them for med school and he says there's nothing sexual about it, it does not remotely turn him on at all, so I imagine most male gynos feel the same way (except the creepers).

    lol I love this and feel the same way.  I've had lots of really nice female Dr.s, I love mine now

    That! I don't see anything sexy about my legs up in the air, me grimacing my doc looking at my lady bits all up close. 

    I'm going to guess they see thousands of vajayjays a year and I assume, after a while it's about as exciting as looking at teeth.

    Sorry, I hope this didn't come off rude, I'm genuinely confused and curious about this. 

  • I have only had females until I got pregnant then my ob was a guy. At first it was awkward but then it was fine. He did my last pap at my 6 week check up after having M since I was due for one and he was so gentle I couldn't even really tell, unlike all the others I have had from my regular dr who is female.

    I'll say, for my H, he'd just rather not think about any other guy seeing my lady bits, even though he knows it isn't sexual.  I don't know, seems normal to me.

    Interesting. 

    I guess my H is the weird one? A while ago I distinctly remember asking my H (I was thinking about switching docs bc of billing issues) if he cared and he said something like "it's your body, go to who you like, i don't care."

    My H is really easy going about male doctor stuff too, but I prefer a female doc.  He's the same (see bolded) with abortion, cutting/coloring my hair, tattoos, piercings, etc.

  • I've only had females, but I prefer a midwife/nurse.  They're much nicer, gentler, patient.  The only time a pap hurt was when a Dr. did it and tried to blame it on me having a titled pelvis...no one ever told me that before and it was never difficult or hurt before either!

  • Ive just always gone to my primary care provider who happens to be a man. But im ok with going to either. I figure they both have to know the parts and its their job.

    For waxing though i might be more comfortable going to a woman

  • The last male I went to told me

    "Your cramps can't really be that bad, try heat and advil."

    =/ I was less than pleased!

    This is exactly why I would prefer a woman. I'm sorry, but a dude just can't understand how bad cramps can be. 

    I would have wanted to punch that dude in the face. 

  • If you don't have my parts, you don't get to inspect down there. Unless it's an emergency, then I'm okay with it. But not for anything regular.
