I'm not a guy but I'd say you have a one-track mind. Anyway, Happy Birthday.

I have a female doctor.

I don't see why it would be a problem.

I'd prefer a female doctor do my testicular exam than a male doctor.

Is this a trick question?

I prefer a female physician for anything, especially a below the belt exam. A female PhD in literature or other field would certainly be interesting, although not medically insightful.

It doesn't really bother me. In a way, it is actually less awkard than having a male doctor do it. I have always had a less comfortable relationship with males, and that's definitely going to carry over with things like this.

Still, regardless of the doctor, they're supposed to be professionals about it, so it's no big deal.

This does remind of an interesting moment in my life. I went to get an annual check-up when I was sixteen, and my usual doctor asked me if it was okay to have someone tag along with him this time. I said sure. His apparent (I presume intern) apprentice was a blonde girl that was probably in her mid to late twenties, and not bad looking. But... as the whole session transpired, she seemed to take a shine to me. Until, at one point, when the doctor had to leave for a few moments(leaving us alone), she was blatantly hitting on me! She, a healthcare worker, hitting on me examination room, while I was only sixteen. Now, when it came time to for the genital exam, I despreately hoped my doctor would do it. Fortunately, and not suprisingly, he did. And, before he did it, the girl decided she was just going to step out for that. I thought "yeah, you do that".

The lesson here is that the rules change in case of grossly unprofessional behavior.

I generally don't like anybody touching my body, especially down there.

But hey, if she's cute enough, I think I can live through it.

hahaha That's funny...and not the first time i've heard a story similar to that before. I asked this question today because I saw this female Urologist on TV today and she said she mostly works with males and that her male patients always made comments to her about how they weren't expecting a female. Here name is Dr. Karen Boyle and she's on a show called "Hopkins". You can google it and find her website.
