Straight White Shark posted:I remember overhearing my coworker's favorite radio host crowing all morning about the guest interview he had lined up with a former trans man who had detransitioned and was coming on the show to talk about her experiences giving up on transitioning and returning to life as her former gender. kill your coworker MasBrillante posted:People have been annoying their partners with this since AT LEAST the existence of Polaroid instant film. Sometimes people just don’t have compatible ways of enjoying outings. It’s not some social media boogeyman. It's nearly a mental illness to be incapable of enjoying something without feeling the need to show it to everyone. They ruin the good time by excessively trying to document it. It also doesn't say flattering things about the person's self-confidence and general groundedness. It's tiresome and immature and I know for sure I couldn't date a girl who was overly involved in that kind of thing. Biohazard posted:Yeah, I mean that much is true. Monsters don't come out of nowhere, they're pretty consistently made by other monsters. Monsters come out of nowhere all the time. There's a bit of nature/nurture. Genetics and mental illnesses cause people to be monsters just as a person's environment and upbringing can.

Nothing wrong with this, its just means their eventual children will learn to equally appreciate fine literature and City Escape. It's called a well rounded education.

What do I do? gently caress that first doctor, jesus. What's with these fucks and just refusing to believe symptoms or the word of their patient? She's a lesbian, Harold! She doesn't gently caress dudes! GO DOWN FARTHER IN YOUR LIST OF POSSIBILITIES. When I was in high school, I broke a finger. The x-ray technician just kept trying to get me to admit I'd hosed before and might be pregnant. She did everything to get me to confess this, and when I didn't, she put the lead apron on me anyway. "Just in case". If you're gonna do it anyway, don't interrogate me about my lack-of-gently caress life!

FactsAreUseless posted:My girlfriend has had a lot of the same experiences, I'm assuming it's universal at this point. It is, extremely. I went to a dermatologist about my eczema and he asked if I was pregnant. Then he refused to believe I wasn't pregnant and suggested poo poo like baby oil for my skin condition. Eczema needs actual medicated ointments, not loving baby oil. I wouldn't be spending money on doctors if I could buy 7 bucks worth of baby shine. Still kinda mad about that. Sorry, it's not you. Male doctors suck poo poo when it comes to uterus equipped people.

I went to a doctor for a nasty ear/throat thing last week and got a ton of "are you sure you can't be pregnant? We'll prescribe safe medications. just in case." I told the lady that I was incredibly sure because my fiance's sperm count had been absolutely ruined from chemo and radiation he went through as a teen. He's about as sterile as you can get. I'm sure I embarrassed her but gently caress it, put it in my file "married to sterile guy and never wanted kids anyway, don't skimp on the lifesaving meds plz."

These stories always make me realize how lucky I was growing up that my parents worked for the Mayo Clinic so I basically got the highest quality care you can get without being a billionaire in America. My mom was diagnosed with erythromelalgia recently and it was basically "you'd better see the world's leading expert on this condition, he's just down the hall."value-brand cereal posted:It is, extremely.

I'm currently working for a dermatologist and this blows my mind. Sorry you got unlucky and found such a lovely doctor  . I hope you got some good topical steroids eventually.

It's not lovely doctors, it's male doctors. Plenty of very experienced and very specialised doctors are still big dumb sexists who will happily chalk up 'debilitating pain' as women being big whiny babies and then not even apologise later when it turns out it was cancer or vertebrae grinding on each other or whatever easily discoverable thing it turned out to be. If you're a woman and have had good experiences with doctors, that's down to luck more than money. And if you're not a woman, you don't really understand just how bad it really is, and how little control women have over the outcome. Pretty much all the women I know will not see male doctors at all because their experiences with them have almost universally been awful.

Also going back to the young lady/my dear thing, I'm a dude but my voice is a bit high, so I get ma'am'ed a lot on the phone. Normally I either correct them or let it pass if they're older, but whenever they call me dear it's skeevy as gently caress. They always think they're charming their way into something until I tell them I'm a dude. I don't know what it's like to live that all the time but I can totally understand being uncomfortable with people forcing pet names and poo poo on you. On the plus side I can blame all my mistakes on an employee that doesn't exist. As Nero Danced fucked around with this message at 03:19 on May 24, 2019 |

The one I had trouble with last time was a woman and honestly I was a little shocked. Told me if I had strep or another bacterial infection they wouldn't give antibiotics to adults because they only give them to kids so they don't spread it (I work with the elderly) then my test came back and they said they knew for a fact it wasn't strep but couldn't tell me what it was or if it was contagious. So I'm two weeks in, finally just coughing up goo, and finally able to walk without being dizzy. Whatever it was, it turned into a nasty sinus infection and I was out of work for a week because I couldn't risk getting the elders sick and the doctor really didn't believe in giving meds because "adults don't really spread infections." Kinda pissy about that one. I spend 12hr days taking care of an 85yo woman. She can not get sick.
