I don’t actually think men would care. If you are going to check my prostrate do it when i’m under anesthesia and don’t tell me. I don’t wanna know you fucked my butt, i don’t want you telling me, i don’t want to feel it. Win win all around. Pelvic Exams aren’t sexual. It’s a medical procedure. I think there should be an element of consent like “i consent to other medical procedures done if the opportunity comes up in surgery” which i’m sure there is in the papers you sign but don’t read
to be clear I don’t agree with this, it should be illegal in all stats to do something without the expressed permission. I’m just saying I would prefer it if you did that stuff without me being conscious because 1. it’s a medical procedure 2. it’s preventing long term effects 3. it won’t affect me, it won’t concern me, it’s a free nothing attached thing to keep me living longer
actually the states allow it are the ones that allow without prior consent. maybe you feel as though it’s not violating for medical students to stick their fingers in your ass while you’re under. but for MANY women it feels incredibly invasive. the problem also stems from the fact that some male doctors have been outed as doing it for no reason other than perverted ones. it creates a space where women don’t feel safe in even a medial setting
if you yourself don’t agree with it then i’m not sure what point you’re making. they don’t do this to men so you don’t have a say on whether “it’s not that bad”. it only happens to women, ive never met a women who doesn’t think that’s it’s a disgusting practice. we can both agree it shouldn’t be done. there’s not much for you to say
