Group Exam or One with a Parent, likely mom, which would you choose?

Having experienced both during my youth, it is something that I have been curious about, namely, if you could choose, which scenario would you pick? My mom was present until about 13; that was long enough as far as I was concerned and by then puberty had begun and erections during the exam were taking place. Also the doctors could have cared less about my modesty so I was largely naked throughout which seems to be the lament of many teens, especially boys.

Group exams were in high school and then college. There was a very different psychological feeling associated with being in a room with men all stripped to our briefs. I don't recall anyone in boxers and all briefs were white and pretty basic back then. The exam was not as lengthy but always included a genital examination and being nude in front of the female nurse while the doc did his thing. One's teammate would be next on line awaiting his fate as I stood naked in front of the doc. I remember a feeling of total embarrassment and dreading when the nurse would tell me your turn.

At this point, I would probably pick a group physical all things being equal if I were magically able to become a teen again.

I kind of had both in a way. Into my teen years the exam room had my mom plus my sister and back to back check ups for us... Even after mom stopped coming in, my sister and I were still back to back.

I have never had a group exam.

But my mother sat in on all of my physicals until the end of high school.

My father took me to his doctor for my pre-college physical exam at the end of senior year of high school, and sat in on it. I had a number of exams after that with my dad's doctor, with my dad sitting in.

I even had one with my grandfather watching, when he took me to his doctor, an osteopath, because of my bad back, and ended up having an unexpected head to toe and inside and out physical exam.

Group for sure.

Having my own mother seeing me standing there stark naked with a raging hard-on would be awkward enough, but my parents' uptight attitudes towards open nudity would only make things worse.

Definitely group. Fortunately, my parents let me get physical exams without them being in the room.

Nick- how did your mom react to seeing you naked with an erection? Was she curious, amused, uncomfortable, or blase about the whole thing? What about the nurse at your group physicals? Did she seem to enjoy you guys' nudity, or was it simply a job to her?

I never had a group exam, but was examined in the same room with my brother, a cousin, and a friend at various times. Always a parent as a chaperone. It could be my parent, my aunt or uncle, or the friend’s parent. Always very dicey in the teenage years.

Great topic and good question. I had both growing up and in my teens. Group physicals for school/sports, plus physicals, usually with one or both of my brothers (but occasionally alone) with parents present. I think having a parent present, especially if it is a thorough physical, is probably more embarrassing, but the station-to-station impersonal herding of boys at the group physicals had its own mindfuckery.

Jake- what sort of mindfuckery went on regarding the group physicals? Was it the thought of being treated like cattle, or like slaves at auction? Was it the random people eyeing you up and down as they passed through and milled about the building? Did any of the fellas actually enjoy showing themselves to any females present, or did they not really care about that? Did you spot any grins or smirks from any of the nurses, lady teachers, moms, or sisters that were there?

I understand perfectly well what Nick has said in his message "At this point, I would probably pick a group physical all things being equal if I were magically able to become a teen again" , me too ! I would be so much more comfortable with the nudity today even in group physicals like those I have disliked in my teenage years.

I think the same as him being now an older man, even if I have disliked my group physicals when I was a teen at school ( each year at middle and high school with undressing in briefs in group before examination by female school nurse and doctor, sometimes with a young girl nursing student helping the school nurse and being instructed each time to strip completely even at last grade when there was a nursing student) or for being admitted at swimming lessons outside of school at 15 age, and later at university and above all at several compulsory draft physical examinations before military service and also for entrance at military service !

Some of those exams were embarrassing and degrading in my memories but they did not last a very long time, not more than half a day like at draft examinations when there was a great number of boys to examin at the same physical day,so now I would think that it was not a big deal and I would easily get over the embarrasment.

Nick : could you give us more details about the way your group physicals were conducted at high school and colleges ?
