My current job is an office job. I interview people before surgical procedures. Yet the other day I had a patient feel the need to lift her shirt to show me her boob with the strange lump. Not really what I wanted to see. I was concerned at first by the appearance but once she had informed me that she had shown her doctor and they were going to check on things I couldn't help but wonder why she felt the need to show it to me too. Holy hell.
I remember one of my grand mothers would always flirt with the male nurses and aides. She was in the hospital one time and I took her a clean gown. She saw one of the guys she liked in the hall and started stripping with the door open. Freaked me out like no one's business.
Yes I've seen it all. Mostly when I really didn't want to. I know that many of us in the IF community have been in positions where we've had all kinds of people looking at our girly bits or boy junk and to a point that's necessary but I simply do not feel a need to drop my pants and show my nurse or the phlebotomist my va-jay-jay. Really. They don't need to see that stuff. I'm also all for being comfortable in your own skin but again, time and a place. Why is it that some people feel the it's ok to show me whatever just because I wear scrubs?

stripping with the door open????
wow.
I mean, wow.
Why is it that some people feel the it's ok to show me whatever just because I wear scrubs? Because people have no f*cking sense whatsoever.
That is just crazy!!! Why would people do that? I have never had the desire to be showing people things that they had no business seeing. It must make for some crazy days!
Oh, dear. The stories you have to tell!
OMG people! Do they have no sense of privacy?? You really do see things..
heh
although I must confess to you (& no, not because you are wearing scrubs), but I have gotten naked for appointments that I didn't need to be all thanks to years of IF treatments.
Well, it could just say something about your personality...maybe you make people feel so comfortable that they think nothing of dropping trou in front of you? They feel at home with you? So, maybe you could consider it a compliment? Ok, maybe not.
That's just plain weird. Not one of the best perks of the job, eh? Sorry you have to put up with saggy old man booty.
Ha. Your post made me laugh. I used to work in a Nursing Home so saw my fair share of saggy booties and boobies. I could never comprehend WHY they would want to show those things off either...
LOL, when I worked mental health outreach, I was in nursing school. Not a nurse yet, didn't know squat. But that didn't keep my clients from saying, "Nuuuurse, my boobies hurt, I think my bra is too tight, will you look at it?" No, I will not.
