Curious and interested vs. bored or awkward onlookers

When you guys underwent your exams, how did your chaperone, parent, or fellow examinees act when it was your time / turn? Did they follow your procedure with a healthy amount of interest, were they amused, were they detached and impassive, or did they act like they'd rather be elsewhere?

This is a fascinating topic to me. I’ve had several experiences with different chaperones over the years and honestly it’s been a variety ranging from “Pretending” not to look but sneaking some peeks, all the way to Blatant, wide-eyed staring with eyes locked on my anatomy as the doctor examined, and everything in between. These chaperones include medical students, medical assistants, and of course parents too. It always feels mortifying in the moment but highly exciting now!

The last time I had a chaperone was 7 or 8 years ago when I was examined for what turned out to be a testicular variocele. My doctor was a younger Asian lady, my chaperone an older Hispanic lady.

There was nothing wank-worthy about the memory, however. The doc was nice but all business. The chaperone was very friendly, but looked up at the ceiling the whole time the exam was happening.

It was medical but definitely NOT medfet. From a fetish / erotic standpoint, it was about as exciting as watching paint dry.

As for parents, they had two major interests, namely, was I fully cooperative and was I healthy. I did see a specialist several years ago for concerns about a bad knee. I had to undress and wear a pair of exam shorts that came to mid thigh and retained my t-shirt. The specialist was accompanied by an med student so not exactly a chaperone but one who observed. The exam involved a lot of feeling around my knee, calf and buttocks which he fully exposed. The med student was all eyes!

When Mom came in when I was young, I seem to remember her reading a magazine sometimes. Other than that, it seemed to her like just another routine chore.

I was the 5th of six kids, and my oldest sibling is 12 years my senior, so she knew the drill, and we all had the same doctor. He'd give her a basic play-by-play and call her over if something that warranted her particular attention was found.

That's for regular exams. If I went in for a specific reason, (Earaches, tonsils, etc.) she'd be right there.
