Speaking from a husband, I feel really uncomfortable with a male gyn checking my wife. Thus prefer female gyn. Unless in emergency which dictates otherwise.
Heard of stories from my friend when he was doing his BMBS about female patients. Believe me, male doctors are also human and natural "desires" are very hard to put aside even in the name of professionalism.
My 2 cents.
Well, your immature friend certainly has chosen the wrong profession, if he feels his
carnal desires overcoming him each time he examines a female patient, and should
consider switching to a more mundane field.
If you are so terrified that a male gynecologist might seduce your wife or has
''unprofessional thoughts'' when he examines her, your only reassurance would
be to stick with a female one.
In case you did not realize, men do not specialize in gynecology with the ulterior
motive of the opportunity to look at a woman's genitals.
Gynecology is not that ''exciting'', let alone pleasant, a field as you might envision.
One has to examine women of ALL ages, and in many cases, DISEASED ones,
day in, day out.
Some years ago, there was an incident in which a gynecologist friend was consulted
by a young Chinese girl, and a very pretty one at that, for vaginal odor.
When she took off her undies on the examining table, the stench emanating
was so horrendous that his accompanying nurse actually FAINTED.
Apparently she was carrying a dead fetus.
Tell your friend to think about that the next time he examines a woman.
