Thus far, during simulated interviews with 'patients' (paid actors come in for this class to act as patients) all the patients have been 50+ years old, so that is what I was expecting going in. Well, as my peers go through this, I hear stories about how most of the 'patients' are basically the undergrad sorority girls looking for some extra money. One patient I heard about had a couple piercings in some places and was a freak, while a couple other guys in my class I spoke with were pleasantly surprised with how easy on the eyes their patients were*.
So, needless to say, I got my hopes up hoping that having a good looking broad would help ease the anxiety of doing this (Ive been dating my now fiancee since we were both 14, and she is the only one Ive been with so cut me some slack) Well, I get into the room and was immediately disappointed. The first was not ugly by any means, but in her early 30's, had a kid, and watermelons in nylons for breasts. I had to hold the breast in one hand and palpate in the other, and that actually didnt go so bad. The second patient weighed in at a couple bills, and showed me what 'hotdog down a hallway' really meant, to the point where I had to move my feet out of the way to keep my toes from being crushed by my jaw. After yesterday, I am convinced any man going into that experience a virgin has an exponentially greater chance of dying as such. How any gynecologist maintains a sex drive is beyond me, although those that do are likely the kind of people that would get into the profession in the first place, who knows.
So now I get to look forward to next week, when I get to check prostates!
*One exception was a buddy of mine who walked in, only to see his ex girlfriend sitting on the bed! He said he immediately got flushed, turned around, and walked out
