Future Task of the Month Suggestion Thread

[~Dreamer~]

Lol, i hope you are not really that serious here When i thought about the depilation task i was actually thinking about a man full of body hair, imagine ! And my smear test suggestion is heavily conditioned by my profession. I am specializing in primary care medicine and smear tests are part of my job and i actually find them challenging as you need skills to relax the woman and then find the cervix and then make the bimanual palpation - all if she agrees with every procedure. They are hugely important for woman's health and although unconfortable it is not really an agressive thing if done with care. Btw, i hope all women the best with their health and dont forget about your regular screenings as uncomfortable as they maybe. I actually did feel somewhat uncomfortable about the pap smear task, just because it already takes a lot of convincing for some people to feel like the procedure is non-sexual (eg. my friends were shocked when I told them that I have mine done by a male doctor.) The task kinda makes it sound like you're saying, "Well, now that I've been inside of you, let me take you on a date." But hey, the weird/gory TotMs are sometimes the most popular! I guess we'll find out at the voting booth...

I guess we'll find out at the voting booth... my totm suggestion was actually a joke about that vague belief or suspition that some women have, which only makes my task a little bit more difficult. Trust me it is not pleasant to perform smear tests, i would be happy if no patient required that. There are also many perverts of course, and although it is sad, we can also joke about that. In fact, joking is a very good coping mechanism Edit: most doctors dont like to perform smear tests, gynecologic examinations. You find all kinds of unpleasant odors and is also somewhat embarrasing for a doctor, specially if the patient is embarrased, but that's something we learn to do with professionalism, and according to the unique personality of the patient. That said, i think my totm suggestion was perhaps a subconscious attempt to deal in a more relaxed and funny way with something that every complete doctor should know how to do - a smear test. I apologize if it seemed rude or misogyny. I wouldnt really waste a lucid doing that, i have enough in waking life lol

I didn't know your occupation before so I didn't detect the irony at the time. I wasn't offended or anything btw, I was just saying that I could see where Ctharlhie was coming from with the previous comment. EDIT: Oh, and I thought the depilate suggestion was pretty funny! Xanous dared me to shave off my own hair while lucid, so I did that a while ago.
