Is it weird to ask for a female doctor for a physical? Including a testicular exam? Why if so?

It’s not weird to have a female doctor for a physical.
It’s pretty weird to ASK for a female doctor for a physical.
It’s not weird unless you make it weird. Somehow your question comes off creepy, like you just want a woman to touch you..
If it makes you feel more comfortable, do it. Better than not getting it done and finding something bad out the hard way later on.
Not weird at all. You ask for a doctor you feel comfortable with 🙂
It’s weird if she’s a dentist or ophthalmologist, but otherwise it’s no different than asking a male doctor.
Male here with a female doctor.
It’s not any weirder than a male doctor doing it.
Not for me, parts is parts and if ANY medical professional is touching my junk there’s a second person present just in case (unless I request otherwise).
No. Treat women doctors as doctors. They have already seen it all for starters, and when you get into medical stuff they often already know about the thing.
Not weird at all. People request male only/female only healthcare personnel all the time. No one will even ask you why.
It’s weird in all situations other than if you have made a appointment to see her at her place of work.
As a man, to me it actually feels less weird.
I like to have a woman doctor do my prostate exam but only because she has smaller fingers.
No, I don’t think it’s weird. We are socially conditioned to belief that women are more caring and comforting; think mothering. It’s pretty natural to me that you might want to see someone that you preemptively would judge as being caring and comforting about a vulnerable medical procedure.
No. That’s literally their job. Just don’t be doing it for a sexual thrill and you’re all good. Honestly I’m the same way. I don’t like male doctors and usually always request a female too. It’s not as odd as you think. Folks do have a preference on who they’d prefer to see.
It’s not at all weird, and very common. I’m sorry you’re getting so many answers with wrong info, or answers implying you’re seeking sexual gratification from a doctor.
Many have gender preferences when it comes to medical professionals. I personally prefer a female doctor (I’m female myself).
Either way, remember that they are doctors and are there to help you.
To the people who are saying I’m homophobic or in this for some sexual pleasure, kindly leave.
Most personal exams now have a chaperone. Xx
I had my balls checked last time I went to the docs.. it was a male doctor. He had one of those student doctors in and asked me if it was ok if he was in the appointment too..
In the end, I had an old male doctor, and a young student doctor (male) that looked like a an american football player..
Only if you’re in line at Whole Foods.
Was waiting for dot physical that included this….turned out to be my female valedictorian from my French class…lol
Just guessing here, but a female doctor might have more experience with the testicular area of other males than a male doctor would..?
No. Any person can have a reason to want a female doctor, as long as its not cause they’re a creep.
Quick question, for no particular reason… have you ever masturbated to the thought of a lady doctor touching your man bits?
OnLy if you ask for one that’s hotter.
Only if you ask her to examine them with her mouth.
Weird to specifically ask. If it’s your time, or Doctor needs to check to exclude it as an issue, and the Doctor on duty happens to be female, your fine.
Its the fundamental equivalent to asking for a proctology exam every appointment, or hospital visit.
Put your inhibitions aside. Regardless of gender, you want the most qualified doctor.
Women do have a gentler touch.
Also hand size is important for a prostate exam, women do tend to have smaller hands.
Why not just go to your regular doctor? I’m reading this like your specifically requesting a female doctor do this exam.. and that you wouldn’t want a man doing it.
Would it hurt more if the guy doctor or the girl doctor laughed when you pulled down your pants
As a truck driver, I had to have annual physical exams. I’ve had female doctors and a female nurse present, when the female doctor said turn your head and cough. Its their job. Mine was to drive a truck, there’s was to make sure I can drive one safely. Maybe, the female doctor felt a lump in one of my testicles, she could have saved my life.
Nope. Wait until you get older man. Gonna have them looking poking and prodding everywhere. I prefer a woman over a man tbh. Smaller fingers is just one of the upsides.
Nope. It’s a necessary & important exam.
