So, there I am, my feet in the stirrups....
and from down between my knees the Gyno pops his head up over my drape and says, "Can you believe that McCain is trying to imply Obama is the Anti-Christ?" (I believe the very vivid "Obama 08" shirt I am wearing is what has given him leave to make such a bold political statement to a virtual stranger.) He confesses he believes Karl Rove is the Anti-Christ, while I express my belief it is indeed Dick Cheney. And we proceed to have a great discussion about the race and general political scene, all the while I am getting the finger and lube treatment. :rofl:

I was very tempted to tell him about DU, but I am not sure how comfortable I would be knowing my GYN is watching me post. :scared: :rofl:

2. LOL!
Yes, it's a surreal experience having a casual conversation with a GYN under those circumstances. Maybe they do it to make it seem less awkward, but I don't know if that's possible. :)

5. It kind of increased the my awkwardness in a way...
I get very chatty and excited when I am talking politics -- normally I just look at the celing during exams, but this time I am holding an eye to eye, animated converstation with a man between my legs! :D

It's just nice to know there was one more vote out there for us. :hi:

16. Ok, now I have to bleach my brain...
to get the image of McCain peeping over the drape, yelling that at me! :D :rofl:

Poor Cindy, if that's what she has to deal with.....that's some foreplay! :rofl:

6. OMG - that's one for the memory books
Edited on Tue Aug-26-08 11:56 AM by Kittycat
:rofl:

ETA: Somedays I think about having a scrapbook to journal or share pictures of the insane. Funny things that happen during the day, conversations in the oddest of places. This story would definitely fit in that book.

11. It was certainly one of the weirder political disussions I have ever held!
:hi: I should also note, he was at least one middle-aged, Latino male who didn't seem to have a problem voting for Obama.

8. Me being me...
I just think that there are some times when discussing politics is a little awkward. ;-)

19. It's not just you.
I've talked politics in a lot of interesting situations, but this one certainly takes the cake. :D

9. That's hilarious!

14. I have talked politics with many of my docs....
who all tend to also be very cool. My acupuncturist and I would spend the first 20 minutes of our session ranting about how much we couldn't stand Bush! Even my therapist and I have sidetracked into our mutual dislike of BushCo. and the past 7 years. It's always nce to find kindred spirits, even if they are giving you a pap smear. :rofl: :hi:

12. Don't worry.
My OBGYN does not know me when he sees me. I don't think he has spent much time looking at my face.

23. LOL at the amusing story. That's so random that your gyno just says that in the middle of a checkup.

24. aww, go ahead and tell him about DU.
he won't know your screen name, and there's gotta be about a brazillion people from SF posting here...

Good to see a doc refuting that stereotype about all docs being heartless, money-grubbing Republicans. (plenty of docs are dems, and plenty believe we need national healthcare.)
