Also, I think it's interesting that your question to raouaouaoaoaul seemed premised on the idea that he would be more comfortable with a same-sex doctor than with an opposite-sex doctor, when you are more comfortable with an opposite-sex doctor.

I was uncomfortable about the fact that she would have to examine me at some point because every doc in the practice has to because you never know who will be on call when the bubble bursts. Believe me, when the time came and they sent a woman nurse in to "check my dilation" she was sent packing so it is not a "women should be nurses" thing either. Like I said, my dentist is female and I am okay with that.
Actually, I asked the question because I wondered if there were men out there who, like me, wanted the physician touching their privates to be the same sex as someone who they would normally permit to do so.
