More about patient body type

The thread on body size got me wondering about another aspect of body type, and what play docs are willing to work with. Would you examine someone with a deformity, or an amputation? Someone who uses a wheelchair?

Someone used the word "normal" in a conversation one day about play exams and body type, and I haven't had the chance to talk with him again and ask him to expand on his definition of normal, but I wondered how other play docs here felt.

I have done an online play exam on a female with cerebral palsy. It was always going to be online only, but it was fun for both of us. She requested that I work the cerebral palsy into the exam, and that's how we roleplayed.

Handicapped people are people too, so they have similar erotic needs like the healthy ones (e.g. you can read the novel ‚Overload‘ by Arthur Hailey, where a wheelchaired girl has an intensive sex-relationship with a healthy man). So, why a handicapped girl/boy could not be interested in MedFet as a patient? Only what is important if you accept such a patient – strictly obey his/her scenario.

I examine patients in real life. Of course I examine everyone including disabled folks. Thus I think it's incumbent to do the same for play exams.

I agree with liquidsky. We use a somewhat stilted language in health care. It does not sound like regular English.

Ex: Patient is a white female, stated age 21, appears several years younger. (Actual age from DL is 21) Patient appears to be a well nourished young woman with no external signs of injury, complains of RLQ pain.

It goes on and on like that.

I have no issues examining anyone who wants to play, its an exam. folks with disabilities are always welcome. I will put a limit on unhealthy exams. I have had patients ask me to preform proceedures because they have a negative veiw of their vaginal areas, I try to consel those ladies; because if I think it is spiritually unhealthy , doors closed.
