Japan gyno privacy

Is it true that in Japan once the female patient is in the gyno chair, a curtain is set up between her upper body and the gyno, so she cannot see what the gyno is doing and neither can the gyno see her face?

Wouldn't that be suspicious, if you cannot see but just feel what the gyno is doing? Is a nurse always in the room in such situations?

Would appreciate inputs on this topic from those who have had gyno exam in Japan or other asian countries.

Yes it is true

It’s a cultural thing

The woman should not look into the doctors face during the embarrassing procedure

In some countries the doctor is not allowed to see the patient. Then he fumbles through clothing or sheets.

I am so very thankful that this not a custom here in the united states my gynecologist even adjusts sheet in between my legs so i can see his eyes at all times it helps me remain calm when I can see him at all times.

I've seen that in Japanese porn videos, but no idea if it is normal practice in real gyn exams in Japan.

Yes, it was true. Asians got different culture than peoples from US or Europe. Eg. They got coutrain between gyno and patient because (reason from official records) they should focused on gyno problems in that women areas not eg. that they got attractive women on chair. Also,like in UK in office are nurse assistant.

I think in a play exam, it would lead to my excitement if I did not know what he was going to do next.

I think I would like that for a real exam. I don't want them to see my face.

It is very true and the reason behind it is to minimize the "humiliation" of the patient so she doesn't have to look at the doctor in the face. In reality, sadly, it opens the door for a lot of things that shouldn't go on but sadly do!

To me,It seems more embarrassing for the poor girl on the table!not seeing what the doc is doing between your legs seems more humiliating.the woman seems more objectified in this position,like a piece of meat!

This is incredibly interesting. So she is just expected to lie there with her legs open and have no idea what to expect next?

In these situations, is the woman typically given a choice as to whether the curtain goes up between her and the doctor? Or is it a requirement?

True true true. And Japan women in strip club, insert also speculum to show their cervix to the male "customers". Cervix is a god in this country.

Maybe it is also true they don't have to look at her in the face, where they would see what effect(s) they're having besides voluntary/involuntary body movements.

not heard of that.. any evidence... would like to know..

Seriously? Is this a thing???? Where have you heard this?

In another Asian country, the procedure is similar to that described here. Wife had a pelvic done at a clinic run by a church while living in Asia. She was taken to a cubical and I had to wait outside. Before the drape was closed on the cubical, I could see the dividing (privacy?) sheet that was lowered from the ceiling while the exam took place. There was also a female chaperone present before and during the exam. After the exam, Wife confirmed that the sheet was lowered while the doctor preformed the exam. She said it made her uncomfortable because she could not see what the doctor was doing. She says she much prefers the way gyn exams are handled here in the US.

I have ZERO embarrassment about doctors seeing and examining my body.

If I was told a dividing sheet was going to come down from the ceiling to prevent me from seeing the doctor, I would go elsewhere.

I want to see the person examining me and what they are doing. The reason patients are draped that way in the OR with the surgeon NOT seeing the patient's face or parts of the body not related to the surgical site IS to make the surgical site a piece of meat so the surgeon can concentrate on the task at hand and not be concerned about a person or any feelings about cutting open a person, and that works perfectly with an unconscious patient.

If I am awake being examined, I want to see the person and what they are doing and I want the physician to see me and my face to know there is a person attached to the piece of meat they are examining.

It's pretty common for a dr to put a blue sheet over the woman's legs - not quite as extreme as this practice in Japan but along the same lines!

For me the female exam is much more interesting. It looks like the exams there are very thorough, they also break it down to components like Breasts, Vulva, Vagina, ...

More or less similar question, although nothing about privacy, but is it like that in Japan as the legs are attached with belts to the stirrups?

Or is this only a fantasy in porn?

There does not seem to be a consensus on this.. but everything I have seen, granted mostly Porn, seems to show the modesty curtain. And I do believe I may have read on some Japanese sites (in English of course) that such a curtain does in fact exist. Let me see if I can find something online.

All of the Japanese porn I watch seems to feature the curtain and they blur out the woman's pussy. Dont they know that's what we want to see?!

I love the motorized chairs that tilt the women back and spread their legs open for the doc. That's something I'd like to try here in the US.

.

I've seen lots of Japanese gyn porn and not all feature a curtain. A significant portion does, but there is all kinds of Japanese gyn porn to be found if you go about it wholeheartedly and diligently ... ha ha

The dividing sheet sounds kinky from a play standpoint, but creepy as hell from a professional one

I would not like to have a screen between me and the doctor - it would take the fun away. As for the motorized table we have one at work and personally I find it really erotic, the way it relines you without the struggle of getting into position, spreads you legs and the bottom end (the table, not the patient) falls away.

I have been in one of those Gyne chairs twice times. The first time was in Japan. The resort we were in had a doctor listed in the directory if any guests were in need of help. I am always in need of help, as long as it requires the use of stirrup, a speculum and well trained fingers. He had the new power lift chair. I had seen it administrated on line a few times, but never had the use of one. Yes it was great. I didn't have a curtain drape or anything like the ones I too have seen in Japanese videos. And I had a sheet, not a gown for my exam. He was pretty good with the exam. Maybe even a little bit apologetic for the digital, and no rectal. Loved the chair. Then once in Germany, That time Gown no sheet and no apology but a great exam. I was told by a girl friend here that her doctor's group was getting two of those chairs as soon as they could. She and her sister goes there at least twice a year and she will let me know

I could see this being used in my next play exam. Not being able to see what the doctor is doing could build up the anticipation.

I had a good friend in college who spent 3 years living in Japan after graduation. She told me about her experience with “the chair” at one point while she was there. Her experience was very different from what we are used to here in America. What caught her off-guard the most was that after the automatic chair turns and reclines you, the bottom basically drops out. Even with the privacy curtain, she said that she felt the process was more revealing than what we go through with an American gynecologist.

We were in Japan for quite a while, it’s true they have a curtain in those exams, it’s also required a female nurse present if a male doctor, it’s also true you don’t have to strip completely for the gyno exam

When I was stationed in Japan, I only had gyn and other exams with military doctors at Camp Zama. I hated all exams but I still would have wanted to see the doctor. It would have been awkward to talk to any Japanese coworkers about their exams.
