Professionals Getting Erections

Ladies, what would be your reaction if while examining you, though the doctor kept a professional demeanour, you noticed he had gained an erection? Would you be pleased, disgusted, aroused yourself or impassive and not bothered in the least? And, has this happened to you?

Do you think a woman, lying on the exam table, feet in stirrups, would be able to notice this very easily Doc?

Probably wouldn't notice it while he is sitting at the foot of the examination table, However, it could happen while he is preparing or after he moves away. For some the question may be reality, for others it may be hypothetical, but, the question still stands.

I'll say what I always say when this comes up:

IT'S A JOB FOR US.

Feeling/examining a vagina doing a pelvic gets us as excited as your mother gets feeling a piece of fruit in the store to see if it is ripe.

In my professional life I've cared for some very attractive people. While I may have fantasized about them later, my work was never erotic even though I frequently touched their naked bodies (ethical massage).

Excellent answer Susie.

Doc Rob

Switchablesusie, perhaps not my mother, but my wife when she is picking out a "special purpose" vegetable or fruit. :-)

That's what they make lab coats for....

Anyways, I wouldn't be upset if a doctor got aroused looking at my wife, as long as they were professional. Even ripe fruit can be arousing for some.

You could also ask: why should a patient be looking a doctor's groin? How ethical is that? ... ha ha ha

Thedocisin,

Perhaps another way to think about this...

Would you go grocery shopping, clothes shopping etc at a store you don't like? Would you buy brands, food etc that you don't like if you are able to buy what you prefer?

If you need to take your car in for a major repair, are you going to take it to someone who has the know how of how to do the repair, or do you prefer to take your car somewhere that you have a high level of confidence the mechanic enjoys what he does? If he enjoys what he does, cares about his job, more than likely this mechanic will make sure he does the best job possible and watches out to make sure other things connected to this repair do or do not need to be adjusted, repaired, replaced. The mechanic who is in it for the money is probably not going to suggest what he notices. Why? He knows if he does not say anything, you will eventually bring your car back again and he will make more money with the repair. Good example is putting leak stop products in your cooling system. It may stop the leak, do you know what damage those type of products do create into very $$$$$$$ costly repairs down the line vs just fixing the problem now?

If you are having bids on your home to be remodeled, what kind of company, builder, installer etc do you hire? Do you hire the one who cares about your budget, what is going to work best for your needs, your taste and style or are you going to hire the one who makes it obvious none of that matters. He is going to build etc how he thinks is best, and in turn will most likely line his pockets to his benefit with your money.

Now think about do you want a physician who enjoys and truly cares about what they do? They are discrete and professional and very thorough at what they do. They have your health and well being as their primary concern and interest for both you and for them as the one caring for you. Their bodies may betray them and reveal that they do really like their job in a way they hope you don't notice. They stay discrete and professional at all times.

Then there is the physician who is good at what they do on all factors. He/she is thorough, professional, blah blah blah. If truth be told, their motivation for working in the profession of a physician is about financial gain and profit mixed with prestige, recognition, ego etc.

I prefer a person who likes what they do, they are interested in me, not primarily how they will benefit financially, prestige, recognition etc.

A physician, PA, NP, RN, LPN, MA, CNA, tech etc are human, just like you are. More than probable, they would be embarrassed if you noticed that they had accidentally become aroused etc. This is the majority, not the minority. Yes, some are better at keeping the "off" switch turned off when there is a particular "piece of fruit" that may cause them to take increased interest. If they are discrete, professional etc, where is the problem?

Just my humble opinions and thoughts.

I assume we are talking about real life exams, not ones for play purposes. I am not a doctor for real, and honestly have no desire to be. I'm frankly afraid it would kill my fetish for this stuff. Obviously that is not the case for a lot of people here. And I know that anyone who is a true professional in any profession just "flips a switch" and goes into that "game on" mode where work is work and that's all there is to it. Of course you're not going to choose your cases, and not every patient is going to be attractive to your, nor are many of the procedures that are necessary going to be very palatable let alone sexy. But I find it very hard to believe that no one ever sees that one patient who is just so attractive to you that your mind never strays just for that fleeting moment, or at the very least you have some involuntary reaction in your body that shows some arousal. We are all human after all. And I think that is okay as long as you maintain the professional demeanor and don't act creepy about it. As was stated, I think a natural reaction for someone who was not a creep would be slight embarrassment and being apologetic if such a slip went noticed. Most people should understand that, in an ideal world anyway. Unfortunately in this day and age with everyone being so ready to jump on any chance for a quick payday, I would think doctors have to watch out for being sued over anything.

Very well said. Karma bump for you.

Thanks Andie!

Suzie would have us believe that no medical professional has ever had a sexual feeling during working hours. Considering that a study of genital blood flow in women found no increase when looking at pictures of naked men (hetero, homo, and animal sex all increased blood flow), I believe it is quite possible that what she says is true for female providers. However, one need only google "doctor arrested sexual misconduct" (486,000 hits) to definitively prove that not only are some doctors getting erections at work, they are acting on it. And considering that it is unlikely that every doctor who gets an erection at work acts on it, it is highly likely that quite a few doctors are getting erections and not acting on it. In fact, I've personally heard doctors admit/brag to having gotten an erection when examining a patient. The important issue here is not whether doctor sometimes have erotic feeling toward patients (see jo neher's "time and tide" ), its what they do with them that counts. And in that respect, Andie is right on. For al you males out there that think that getting an erection when examining a patient is a bonus of the job, try thinking about it in another context. Imagine you are standing in a lecture hall teaching a large class. You look into the front row and notice that a very attractive coed doesn't have any panties on and is flashing you. You feel yourself start to reflexively stiffen. How would you feel as you try to continue with your lecture? Humiliated? Maybe. Terrified? maybe. Hot to trot? Definitely not!

Not every one who is interested in the medical field is cut out for the job. One of the reasons the training is so lengthy and the hours so long is to weed out those who aren't right for the field, no matter how much they desire it. Even then some make it through who do not have the moral strength of character to go forward in an ethical and professional manner. Some are weeded out by law enforcement, others by their licensing boards, and still others by their inability to get properly insured.

But in a way that isn't so different from other fields. Not everyone who wants to pursue a pro athletic career is cut out for the job, same for law enforcement, and countless other professions.

And please don't assume a doctor is a man, many of the best are women.

"Professional Erection" seems like a good example of an oxymoron to me. Unless we are talking about a porn star, I suppose. With apologies if anyone else already said the same thing here.

A doctor can have an erection and still be professional. Even if a doctor did have an erection, it's not an inappropriate response to the situation, as the primitive brain sees a naked woman in an ideal position for mating. An erection is an autonomic nervous system response, and it's not completely under conscious control.

I remember erections that would come on suddenly in high school, even if I wasn't thinking about anything sexual. No matter what i thought about, it just wouldn't go away. Of course, it would happen right before the bell rang, so I would have to hold a stack of books in front of it as I stood up to leave class.

Perhaps male ob-gyns receive secret Jedi training where they learn to shut off their autonomic nervous system 8-5, after which it turns back on. That's far from the truth in reality, as I'm sure male doctors get boners on occasion. They're just really good at hiding it and staying professional.

Lol " jedi training" of course male drs can have erections at 20's we have erections even without a cause all the time come on get real

I would say even the most professional male gynecologist who succeed past the "weed out" process are still susceptible to their own biological reflexes. The idea that they can turn off their natural biological response completely is pure nonsense. That said, as professionals they won't let it be known nor admit to it.

Turns out it's actually pasta that does it:

Doutordouglas clearly points out --"we have erections even without cause all the time come on get real"....They are after all HUMAN just like the rest of the populace !!...simply part of natural human mechanics.

Who knows ..some may even take it as complimentary or raise a smile.

When my doctor did an HSG on me to see if my tubes were sealed shut, he had a hard penis in his scrubs when he seen my vagina but it wasn't sticking all the way out because it was restricted by his scrubs because they were fitted, it looked like he had a good 2 to 3 inches trying to poke it's way all the way out, it was sticking straight out like it was pitching a tent (LOL) if his scrubs were baggy his boner would have been sticking out a lot more, at the time I didn't think anything of it but when I got home and thought about it I got pretty turned on later that night, my doctors nice juicy package looked hot in his scrubs, during another appointment I had with him before he tied my tubes he had a boner in his jeans but it wasn't sticking out very much because it was restricted by his fitted jeans, it was a very yummy sight......I wanted to switch roles with him and be the doctor and him be my patient and play doctor with him and do very kinky things with him LOL

Andie I have never read a more considered, logical, metaphorical & intelligent comment in zity than the one you posted. I don't know how to give you karma otherwise I would love to do so. Please keep contributing because you make lots of sense ... even to an old man down under!

I have a album called "women I'd like to see examined". I'll bet even the most seasoned hetero male gynecologist couldn't examine all of the women without getting wood (unless he has ED). If he could, then I'd call him Obi-Wan, as he must be telling himself: "These are not the vaginas you're looking for..." (Sorry, that was for the Star Wars fans)

I just like the title of this topic, "Professional Erection" This erection is definitely not for novices! For professional use only. They have been known to go off unexpectedly (smile)

Hmm not sure about the other women who have posted on this topic. But I can honeslty say the position I am used to being in duringf an exam would not lend itself to easily see the doctors "package" erect or otherwise. At least not without being completely obvious!

That being said, if I were able to observe a "professional erection" I'm sure it would bring a smile to my face hehe

Dr Stiffler,

LOVE it! Karma for you! Thank you for the laugh!!!

I'm not sure a patient would notice but as a professional there's a need to keep a distance and ensure that it's not a sexual experience but a medical one - as soon as it becomes sexual in any way then you've failed as a professional.

Seeing as how I love male doctors and nurses and how much they turn me on I might get turned on myself just by the doctor having a hard on

I met my ex who was a nurse in a hospital, I went to the walk in clinic for an ear infection and he came in to take my temp and blood pressure and I kept looking down between his legs at the bulge in his scrubs, all sorts of very kinky thoughts kept running through my mind of how I wanted to be on top of him with him laying down on the exam table and I couldn't help but to tell him he looked nice and he caught me blushing and he asked if I was single and we exchanged numbers and we started dating

To have an erection around a real patient would be entirely inappropriate for any medical professional. Hospital boards and medical quality assurance boards have a field day with this.
