That really makes me re-think a lot of things, too... like, I've had to go to the hospital at least twice now for related issues. Each time, I ahve been repsented with MALE nurses and dr.s Yet I wasn't terrified. Considering the abuse, i would be (and always assume I would be) but I wasn't. Mind - they were terrified of being there and did not examine me. But somehow, knowing i was facing an exam WITH a GUY, i was calm. Probably very dissociated. but somehoe different than totally freaking out with a woman doing the exam like always. I have to go to work, but now I am confused. gotta think on this.
