Broaching the RT in discussions

Other than exchanging posts here has anyone been in a conversation that involved the topic of rectal temperatures?

I myself have and I was surprised at how honest the discussions were.

I have always told the truth about my experiences with rectal temperatures, giving and receiving, with men and women. Many of them do not get upset with the topic. Several responses have surprised me during face-to-face conversations. Nice to know that people that I actually meet share some of my interests!

I actually had a nice conversation about it with a complete stranger I was giving a vaccine to. I told her my other fetish as well not just rt

It has sometimes happened, but it was rather matter of fact or jocularly. In France, it used to be the case that rectal temperatures were widely used even for adults. However, these were not conversations where one expresses an “unnatural” interest in such topics.

were /Are you a medical professional? Giving injections.

@OverRainbow I am a pharmacy technician so yes I give injections all day every day

Outside of this forum, I have seldom brought up rectal temperature taking. It’s come up in conversations over the years, when people were discussing their experiences with hospital stays, and traveling or living abroad. The times that I’ve brought it up in conversations with women, I’ve sensed that they consider it weird, and perverted. I brought it up with a female friend, in her 20’s recently. She didn’t even know that you can take your temperature in your butt!

I am intimately acquainted with and know injections very well. Got the Pasteur treatment years ago. No fun.

I have brought the subject up many time. In fact, I brought it up with a woman that I have been seeing. She thought that it was disgusting and disturbing. I certainly don't. It is tough to find RT partners - women

A young close friend of mine is a nurse in her late twenties. She mentioned to my wife about her toddler son having a fever, and what his rectal temp was that morning. I asked her if that was still a thing at the hospital, she said it was still done more than one would think- but it now takes only seconds instead of minutes, so it’s over before they know what happened. She also said her own kids’ temps will be taken rectally for as long as they will accept it. She said it’s less of an issue to them than trying to wipe their noses.

I had many. I never really engaged in that topic with the guys or girlfriends, but years ago it was quite common to see hitchhikers on the road. I never did it myself, but between the ages of 17 and 26, at the height of my RT fetish, I would pick up teenaged hitchhikers. There was always a fear that one of them would be violent, but luckily that never happened. While driving I would always get into a conversation by saying that I was just coming off of an illness, and had been at the pediatricians. I would then describe the entire exam from when the nurse would have me undress to my underwear. I would then tell how I had to turn over on the table, to get my temperature taken. Everyone I ever gave a ride to would contribute to the conversation. There were a couple who said they were switched over to oral a couple of years before, but a majority apparently had the same experience as I. It was really a turn on for me at the time to talk about this, and even easier with total strangers. I ended up finding out a lot about them in the process. I really miss those days.
