I’ve had male doctors do exactly those things in a clinical context/environment, and it was never even remotely erotic. If my current Urologist has reason to do likewise, her happening to be a woman isn’t going to automatically change clinical examination into outrageous sexplay. Our experiences and perceptions obviously differ, which is ok with me. Not worth arguing over. > [@pkbites](#): > > Yeah, um, a female medical doctor doesn’t hold a mans penis and peel the foreskin back and run their finger up and down the back of the shaft and then massage his testicles.

> [@TreacherousCretin](#): > > I’ve had male doctors do exactly those things in a clinical context/environment, Do you have a specific medical condition they were checking on? Because pulling back the foreskin and rubbing a finger up and down the shaft and massaging the testicles is usually not included on an annual physical. Usually it’s a quick push up on the jewels to check for a hernia and that’s it. ---

Usually it’s a quick push up on the jewels to check for a hernia and that’s it. 1. Yes I do. 2. I never said it was part of a “routine annual physical.” 3. You said “a female medical doctor doesn’t hold a mans penis and peel the foreskin back and run their finger up and down the back of the shaft and then massage his testicles.” That is simply incorrect, _regardless_ of the Physician’s gender, which should be irrelevant in any event. It always has been for me, anyway. And that’s my final entry to this thread. ---

I never said it was part of a “routine annual physical.” No but your post seemed to imply. I’m morbidly interested to know what medical procedure involves a doctor pulling down the foreskin, stroking the penis shaft, and also massaging the testicles. And I don’t think it’s a stretch to question why a teenaged boy wouldn’t get aroused by having an attractive woman do this to him. ---

Last year my primary care doctor strongly suggested I have a routine “full body” review by a dermatologist, since as an aging American it is encouraged, and I’d never had one before. Completely unrelated: I’ve been on generic Cialis for a couple of years. It does indeed help lower my blood pressure by about 5 points (YMMV), but also: my organ is on a hair-trigger. So as fate would have it, my routine full body skin review would be conducted by a physician and assistant; both young females. Stand there, naked, while they review every inch of your skin, moving things around as needed. I was genuinely concerned about possible hostile action, but I concentrated on baseball, and no enemy movement occurred, thankfully. ---

Reminds me of the famous scene out of the ‘Singing Detective’ Here is the American version. Sadly, I could not find the British version. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/2LKVMFImONA/maxresdefault.jpg "The Singing Detective - Mr. Sandman") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LKVMFImONA) ---

The Singing Detective is bedridden in hospital with extreme psoriasis [psoriatic arthopathy], with the story built up from flashbacks and real and dreamy sequences set in the wards, often with musical numbers. Haven’t seen the US version but the [British original](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Singing_Detective) was very good with Michael Gambon in the heavy makeup. ---

The scene doesn’t have _Mr Sandman_ or the other women in the original. That’s more like the _Dem Bones_ scene. The [whole series](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFSU8nMbq7Q1iW3u6flPnpsj3aSZc52xC) is on youtube. ---

> [@scabpicker](#): > > Well, maybe your PBS. I’m certain that the first nudity I saw was on KERA in the 70s. I clearly recall unedited Monty Python, and my memory wants to say there was more, but I can’t recall specifics. I remember that from Monty Python as well, a woman behind a shop counter. KERA also ran Bruce Jay Friedman’s play “Steambath”, which featured a topless Valerie Perrine. That would usually run late at night, and I would usually stay up for it. ---
