Does it matter who takes your temperature

Who would you rather have taking your rectal temperature?

Mom, Dad, Husband, Wife, Male or Female Nurse/Doctor?

I have had all of the above take my rectal temperature! For me I guess it really doesn’t matter WHO is taking my temperature as long as it’s taken in my bottom (rectally).

Wife or Nurse

For me, it was all of the above. Currently, it's my Dr. and a gal that I see once in awhile whenever I'm on the East coast, for work.

From childhood to adulthood: mother, aunt, older sister, older cousin, girlfriend. Only females, thankfully!

At 72, I realise I have had a strong rectal temperature fetish thoughout my life and I have come to consider rectal temperature taking as a way of having sex, and a very intimate one.

When I grew iup in a Frenxh-Swedish middle class familly, rectal temperature was the norm for adults and children alike and I have never seen a mouth thermometer. Even today, I dont think I would be able to use one. Given one, I would probably request a rectal thermometer.

During my life, most of my sex partners have shared my taste for rectal temperature. I remember, this girl who lived with me for about 10 years and who was as much into RT as me. She had set the rule that we would take eachover's rectal temperature every day on the paetner's lap, first thing in the morning. .L enjoyed it so much.

.Unfortunately, this ladyfriend dumped me 3 years ago and let me alone to take care of my temperature .

It definitely matters. It would have to be a female friend. I would refuse to have a male, or a medical professional doing it. The likelihood of it ever happening is zero.

If there's a reason to be taking it, then it makes almost no difference to me whatsoever. Obviously I'm not going to just drop my pants for some rando on the street who walks up with a mystery thermometer, but in any situation where a temperature might reasonably be taken I'd be receptive to it. I wake up tomorrow in an alternate reality where rectal temps are the norm in all medical settings? Whatever doctor or nurse happens to be there can do it. I'm sick and one of my parents delivers soup and asks to check it? I'm going to assume they've been replaced by a pod person but I still won't be resisting it. I spike a fever at work and a coworker or my boss magically produces a red Geratherm? I'd probably be a bit embarrassed by the situation (and probably confused as to why a network admin is carrying that in his toolkit) but I'm still going to allow it.

For me this question is like asking if it matters who pulls a piece of metal out of my leg after an accident or who applies a splint if I've broken a bone. It needs done or is at least reasonable to have done so I have no room to be picky about who's doing it.

I have recently direct messaged a man on this site whom I would allow to insert a RT in my butt. I have a female friend(former nurse) who I would also allow. I would have to be totally naked lying OTK.

For any method except rectal, it doesn’t matter to me. Rectally, it’s females only.

I only WILL have mine done by females. My wife these days; also my colonic therapist. In the past, various lady lovers and friends.

By a male play partner only.

I agree with MarkRT male on male partners.

Wish my wife or nurse would take it
