What things make you think of Rectal Temperatures?

I think there are "triggers" for us males who enjoy the RT scene, that make us think of the issue of rectal temperature taking. For me, as a male, I see many great looking females, and wonder what their experiences were or possibly are with RTs. Then too, the female next to me, bending over, in a pair of jeans that ride low, exposing a portion of that panty or thong she's wearing. As well, walking by a female who has her legs spread (not intentionally) and there's a great view up her skirt does it for me. Or the female(s) overheard discussing their last visit to their gynecologist or doctor, and in some cases as I've heard on at least two occasions, their stating in not so direct words, but alluding to their temperatures and the embarrassment of having had them taken, "that way!"

And hey, ladies, if you've had these experiences or whatever regarding males and what triggers you to think about their RTs, please chime in!

I am not sure how to answer this one but, I will try my best. When I was a toddler and during to times when my temperature was being taking rectally, it was the insertions that felt good on the inside.

If I had a fever and when I felt hot and when my mom inserted that cold bulb into me, it felt nice a cold and even relaxed while it was reading.

I have done a few rectal temperatures on myself and it all does bring back those memories from my infant and toddler years.

Plenty of things work, i.e., being around attractive women, looking at websites like the chive, xhamster, zity.biz, etc., and watching female newscasters, and celebrities. There's never a shortage of triggers.

I sometimes see a man i am attractive to and part of checking him out from behind i fantasize about lowering his pants and taking his temperature.

Every time I see a pretty nurse wearing her scrubs, I ask myself...."I wonder how many rectal temperatures she's taken since she's been a nurse?....If so, were most of the patients adults or children? Men or Women? I also wonder how she handles the task of taking a man's rectal temperature. Is she the all business type, or the sympathetic type that understands a patient's embarrassment. The really pretty ones might surprise you. Often, those are the ones that would think nothing of sticking a thermometer up a guy's butt. Doesn't faze some nurses whatsoever performing embarrassing procedures on men. The attractive mom nurse in her 30s typically has experienced doing RTs on all sorts of patients. Her experience of raising a family and taking care of her husband has matured her from the timid inexperience of most younger nurses. That's the thing I really love about experienced nurses. They are usually strong women that take life in stride, and aren't challenged by a simple little task like taking a guy's rectal temperature...…..or giving him an enema.

A jar of Vaseline is a MAJOR trigger!

There are many triggers: seeing pictures of a rectal thermometer alongside of a Vaseline jar or the thermometer sticking out of the jar. Recalling the many times my auntie took my temp while I was over her lap.

Remembering the times my then girl friend would take my rectal temperature while I was laying over her lap or me taking her temp while she was over my lap (not for any medical reason but for erotic playing around together).

Sexual thoughts when seeing a mans naked butt

@NESpanker I couldn't agree more.

Growing up, the RT was always in the bathroom cabinet in a black container on the top shelf. On occasion, mom would take it down and you would see the container on the counter minus the thermometer. It took me a few years to realize she was likely taking her own temp.

The most intense trigger had to be at the doctor's office seeing two RTs in containers on the counter. It was never a good sign when the nurse approached the counter and removed a thermometer for one's exam. Seeing her lube it was enough to make me tense up - all over - and realize what was next!

In the doctor's office as a kid. Sitting on the paper on the exam table. Remember how the nurse would have me naked on my stomach. She would shove the thermometer in and take it out with a swift motion. Did not like it at the time but it became a fetish and I became very dominant.

Vaseline jars, doctors offices, thermometers at the drug store, being sick.

It doesn’t take much to trigger a RT thought or daydream for most of us who are wired for it.

Walking past the thermometers or lubricants in a department store will certainly bring about RT images in my head. Strolling by the lady’s panty isle will also often spark my imagination. A woman with a sweet ass in leggings or sweatpants, or just panty lines will lead me in the direction of temperature taking. Don’t get me started about beautiful women leaning over open-top freezers in the grocery store! Clinic waiting rooms are also trigger places. If I’m in that type of mood, I can see rectal temps just about everywhere I look. Sometimes it wears me out to the point that I need a break for a few days. I can shut it off completely when I want or need to. Like anything, it’s important and healthy to be in control of oneself.

Walking into a doctor's surgery, the cream or brown interior and that latex, bleach smell. Always reminds of how rectal temperatures. Whenever I visit a pharmacy I always take a discreet walk through the child section to take a look at the thermometers on sale.

Vaseline jars, exam tables, even certain types of pajamas, that I can imagine getting pulled down in back, hearing certain childhood words (such as tush or hiney, for example), the smell of rubbing alcohol, feeling a hand on my forehead, or seeing thermometer.

@Nick321 Do you think your mother may have been trying to conceive? Rectal temperatures are advised for determining ovulation, as far as I know, due to the high precision needed.

One can monitor their Basal Body Temp orally, rectally or vaginally. Consistency in measurement - not precision is what's needed. The important thing is to do it the same way (what ever method you use) at the same time of day, and to track it regularly (even to graph it) to notice a slight spike in body temp. A relative spike will show up no mater what method you use. They actually make digital oral Basal thermometers that show temp down to a tenth of a degree - how accurate are they - who knows - as long as they operate the same every day they will show a relative change in body temp.

Now they make thermometers that are very accurate. Back in the day my mom the nurse told me a neighbor was taking hers rectally trying to pinpoint ovulation. That was the most accurate way then to be able to detect slight rises in temperature. Now there is probably a half dozen ways that will work. They aren't as much fun though!

Now, THAT I will agree with - and “fun” is a good reason to take the temp rectally. Might even raise the temp a bit of the person inserting and holding the thermometer!!!

We still have two glass rectal thermometers from years ago in our medicine drawer, and I do see them once in a while and remember back. (We also have a digital, which admittedly is not nearly as sexy!!) Lol

Lots of memories. Thinking back to my 20s when I suffered severe facial injuries after the accident, nurses in ICU inserted a probe up my behind while I was running a fever. In my room on the med-surgical floor, nurses took rectal temps when they did vitals at all hours. For months I was really good sipping my meals through a straw. Lol

My visiting nurse while I recovered at home took my temp rectally, and my husband also has done the honors through the years at times when I was having nauseating headaches. Thankfully, those headaches are now mostly gone. So, a lot has happened “down there“ to elicit memories.

Walking in a Hospital or Clinic and seeing a nurse in scrubs

Agree, Vaseline pots.

I was going to a certain doctor a few years ago. I was astonished to see a glass mercury thermometer in a glass jar. I assume it was oral, but I didn’t get close enough to see for sure. He never did take my temperature, but seeing that thermometer was certainly a trigger for me.

Seeing a thermometer container still happens in some offices. It is a huge trigger along with KY on a tray next to the table. Overhearing a nurse tell a patient, I need for you to turn onto your side for this. Hearing the patient say, “Oh do you have to take it like that?” There are so many moments that can trigger this from sights to sounds. Even this conversation is triggering.

Vaseline

Toys and objects having a shape compatible with an anal penetration, enema gear, thermometers, Vaseline, and most of all, a perfectly shaped female ass.

Have you ever looked at the Edison light bulbs they sell at home depot the glass envelope looks very much like a 1950's rectal thermometer bulb all be it, much larger? I'm not saying to try to put it in your butt, just to look at the shape. The first time I saw one of those light bulbs, my first thought was a rectal thermometer.

While walking in the produce section of the grocery store and seeing a perfect size and shaped Ginger Root.

Hearing a female friend of mine just saying the word thermometer will get me going. Seeing a female lap will trigger fond memories of the great times I've had with play partners. Having a nurse or medical assistant tell me they have to take my temperature. Even though I know it's an oral reading, it can still make me think of the past.

Reading some of these posts, looking at attractive women, and wondering if any of them take their temperature rectally, especially with the Covid Pandemic, and looking at Vaseline jars. These are the most prominent triggers.
