Eating Appetizers As a Meal

Hey everyone,

I've been trolling around this site for the past few days, having a wonderful time but at times not so much. My fetish is centered solely around non invasive practices focusing on auscultation and palpation. It feels as though I am in a small ("vanilla" if you will) minority. So I ask; are there some people who create and fantasize about med fet exams that include primarily heart, lungs, abdominal, and the other basics (throat, eyes, ears, etc.)? Every one of the stories and many of the posts I've read includes these things as a perfunctory, precursory foreplay (appetizers) and then moves right onto the "main" (meat and potatoes) event of gyno stuff, rectal temps, enemas, and needles. I would love to talk to the people who don't think that gyno, needles, or ass play of any kind have a place in their fantasies. Who believe that anything else after stoic listening, quiet concentration, and soft, firm touching required during thorough palpation and auscultation would take away the sacred magic that is the gentle, safe, and non-threatening exam. The kind done by professors and quietly intellectual Spock-like professionals. Who wear tweed vests and glasses, and who always ALWAYS has the well being of others on their mind that they travel with their medical tools wherever they go, and perform exams with a kind, concerned spirit without even being asked to.

Please don't misunderstand. Fetishists into the invasive stuff, that's totally cool, to the people who enjoy them I say have fun and be safe. But are there others like me out there? Anyone? Bueller? =P

Still working on that auscultation fan fic. Going to try and have it up in the next couple months!

I am exactly like you, I don't care about anything else and in fact would never participate in anything else but the auscultation part. I am in your "vanilla" minority (lol). i think these fetishes exist on a continuum and nobody can really say one or the other is or isn't "real". For me, a woman listening to my body with a stethoscope is every bit as erotic and enjoyable as someone else enjoying their fetish of a gyno exam. My desire isn't based on sex, though, it's based on fear, as I have come to figure out, and I use it as an outlet to deal with my fear, and maybe it is a fascination too, I don't know. But I think the whole reason for this "auscultation" topic is that there are people who are just like you. It's mostly a "to each his own" situation, and if someone says, "well, stethoscope-only or 'vanilla' fetishes and activities aren't real fetishes" (etc.) then they are sadly mistaken.

....."Vanilla."... 😉

I am definetly more into cardio exams , do not like gyno or enemas so no worries there, have steths, ekg unit and few other toys would love to chat sometime

I'd say I am too. My fantasy exam would involve thorough stething, maybe an echo, then a stress test with sexual manipulation. I have minimal desire for other gyno stuff, and I'm not into enemas or injections at all.

I only like the vanilla

Count me in as another "vanilla." I don't care anything about enemas, gyno (other than breast exam), or injections. But there is nothing more exciting to me that giving a woman the most thorough bare-chest stethoscope exam she has ever had, followed by palpation and auscultation of her abdomen and neck and a good breast exam. There is nothing hotter to me than being able to look into a woman's eyes as the powerful cadence of her heart thunders through my stethoscope--especially if I have to lift her left breast a bit to get a good listen at the apex of her heart!

Am i the only one laughing at the Bueler joke? Good job man, u made me smile! Bueler, Bueler! (ps. im a teacher, and i routinley do this during my class roll call..but they are only 5 year olds...no one to get me jokes! my humour is wasted, but i still giggle anyways!)

I had excellent meals, dinners and even dinner parties with 😁 appetizers only...

Always happy to hear that I am the cause of a smile maddie! XD

Yeah, I employ that joke with my students too. Like yours, they don't get it either but then again, they are all Chinese.

Vanilla as well. Not into anything else.

No, I don't think you're alone at all.

I'm largely 'vanilla,' too. I'm happy and willing to do the other stuff if a girl wants that but it doesn't particularly excite me.

I know what you mean though. It's quite frustrating when you find someone willing to partake in stethplay but it ends up being more of an appetisier than the main event.

I'm fairly 'vanilla' too in that respect.

I want to savour the experience of having someone look in my ears, nose and throat, the strange sensation and taste of the tongue depressor when it's just out of the jar, the cold touch of the stethoscope diaphragm, and then the gentle pressure of palpation.

A play exam which just goes straight to a genital exam isn't realistic.

Nor is (as has been suggested in the past) getting the 'doctor' to hold me while giving a urine sample, or having to give a semen sample in front of the doctor. Come on, who actually gets that in a real exam??

Sorry folks, most of my interest comes from the feeling of nerves before having to see the doctor for real, and a play exam to me isn't anywhere near as much fun if it isn't realistic; a gentle and thorough general exam, not a bit of foreplay.

Pretty vanilla here, too. I enjoy auscultation and palpation as some below have mentioned. This site has been pretty disappointing as it seems to mainly be an enema fetish site.

I'm so vanilla you could make me into a cake.

Yep im with you! non invasion all the way

Make you into a cake, huh? Bet you'd be delish!

So glad I have a bunch of kindred spirits here.

There are a ton of us who just like heart and steth exams and I dont consider us to be vanilla at all!!!

I love giving online exams where the basics are the main part of the exam. You should check out heartbeat pleasure forums. Full of heart fetishists who love giving exactly the exam you described, including me!

I don't use vanilla in any kind of bad sense. Its just another term for soft and non invasive. My mom is a member of the kink community and she jokes about how her favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla. 😃

What a great thread! 😃

I love what you describe as "appetizers", LTMH. Basic clinical procedures (taking pulse, checking blood pressure, inspecting eyes, ears, nose and throat, and of course *auscultation*) turn me on incredibly, much more than working on the vagina and the anus.

On the other hand, I have several other kinks which I adore and wouldn't want to be without. I used to be a BDSM lifestyler back in my young days, and continue to indulge with my partner. At the same time, I love straightforward, "vanilla" sex. Seriously now, when you've been working all day and you've got half an hour before falling asleep (whether you want to or not), it's too much like hard work to get the ropes and the cuffs.

I have always been against labeling sexual preferences as "vanilla", "top", "bottom", "Master", "Slave" and all that jazz. I understand the need for the vocabulary in some cases, but I never needed it myself. All I do is be honest about my desires and kinks, and enjoy them.

Best regards,

DH

Those of us who prefer the "vanilla" things seem to be in the minority, but there are probably more of us than we realize. As someone mentioned below I've sometimes wondered if people I've had contact with might be feigning an interest in auscultation/palpation in hopes of getting into more "R" or "X" rated activities!

Yes, there are more of us who can survive an evening on a plate full of appetizers! Vanilla is totally my thing. I prefer HEENT examinations and the occasional auscultations, whereas the gyno-esque stuff and pain doesn't do anything for me... But for me they feel like a main course and that's what matters.

I'm basically with Anders on this, given that my principal fetish concerns the mouth. Anders is one of a handful of people on this site who, in one thread or other, have nominated a tongue depressor as their favourite med-fet instrument. (Another is tjc in post #13 below, who writes: 'I want to savour the experience of having someone look in my ears, nose and throat, the strange sensation and taste of the tongue depressor when it's just out of the jar ...') Anders writes: 'I prefer HEENT examinations and the occasional auscultations ...' Yes, a fetish can be for anything, including any part of the body (it may just depend, I suspect, on what happened at a time of sexual arousal in one's formative years, or it may come about by remembering something that appears 'sexy' in retrospect - this speculation may warrant a thread of its own, very possibly!). Something I take from such posts as Anders' is the need to be 'tolerant' and 'democratic' towards the fetishes of others ...

Having said that, I'd add that receiving a med-fet exam may be a different matter to giving one. If the right play-doc wanted to give me a full medical exam, I would welcome it provided (a) it included a non-cursory HEENT check, and (b) it was conducted realistically, clinically. Without (a) I would feel that an essential part of the exam had been omitted, which would mean that (b) was to some extent wasted!
