A question for all stethoscope lovers.

I would rather listen to someone else. I as many have stated would might being listen to as well. Great topic

Both, taking turns.

I like it better to be listened to but I also enjoy it to listen to someones heart while having eye contact. I did that with a friend and it was a beatiful and intimate moment.

I like starting as the listener. With the right person, however, I don't mind being the listenee. It depends on my mood.

I like having mine listened to. Listening to someone else's does very little for me.

I like having mine listened to but I need to be the "Heart Doctor" to get the most out of a Stething session!

Prefer to be listened too, but do enjoy listening to a fast thumpy female heart so 60/40 would be my split

As a "patient" I'd rather watch the stethoscope move round my chest as I'm listened to.

Rather someone listen to mine

I haven't had a chance to do an exam in a while, so right now I'd like to listen to someone else's heart.

Definitely would prefer to listen versus be listened to... I suppose because the former is out of my element, while the latter is more routine.

For me it's impossible to choose just one! I like both, so when in a romantic mood, I enjoy switching or even doing it at the same time.

In the context medical role play, sometimes I prefer to auscultate and sometimes to be auscultated, but at different times. Both things work differently for me in that way. Stething can feel very intimate, so listening to someone's heart can put you in control. On the other hand, being auscultated gives me feeling of vulnerability and also of being cared for. I like both and it depends more on the situation or even the mood.

Definitely being at the receiving end of the stethoscope. I love the feeling of the cold chest piece being pressed a against my flesh. It makes me feel... in a strange way "cared-for". And I love the silence of the moment, while I lay there almost completely open, unable to hide how my heart is beating crazily in my chest, the "Doc" overing and listening and looking at me,... and then the sticky noise that come from when the chest-piece is moved to another position.

I love it. It sort of embarrass me, and I love it.

I like both but if it came down to it being auscultated by an older male Dr would be top of my list.

Whenever possible, its great to take turns listening to each other. Being listened to and doing the listening are both such intimate yet different experiences.

I prefer to be "The Doctor" more than the "Patient" but enjoy both. I also love seeing pictures/videos of females listening to their Hearts, but REALL love it when I see pictures/videos of female getting their Hearts examined by someone else.....more realistic...like seeing them at the Doctor's getting their Pumps checked!

I prefer to be the "patient" (honestly, besides, i like being the patient) cause i have a serious hearing loss in my rgiht ear. That's why i can not auscultate someone.

I like to have mine listened to, but I have have done it to a partner and it was great.

I would prefer to be the patient… for sure! I do have a stethoscope though, but would need to be guided through the “doctor” role.

About forty years ago, I had a long standing relation with a girl who was very much into medfet. Maria had set the rule that every time we were to have sex, she would submit me to a complete physical which would included a rectal temperature taking and some stething. She was proud of the Littmann stethoscope she had stolen from her sister who was a MD

As I told Maria, I was afraid of doctors and did not like too much the Idea, she answered I did not have anything to fear as she knew nothing about cardiology and could not tell if I were dying. I must also say that I often had the feeling her stething was an excuse to play with my erect niipples.

Anyhow, quite often Maria let me listen to my heart, and on some occasion to hers. It was allways a fascinating experience.

Now, as an old man, I have been seeing a female cardiologist every six months for about ten years. Even though I am still in near panic every time I have to visit her, I find I have develooped a confident, allmost friendly, relation to her. But I still do not dare to ask her to let me listen to my heart when she is stething me.

I can't answer that as I love both so much. It completely depends on my mood, somedays I need a stething and other days I'd prefer to give one

I love both! But if i am being stethed then it has to be in the context of a roleplay exam with the proper build up to it, rather than going straight to it. And the stething has to last a long time and all over, deep breaths, diaphragm and bell and whatever else the doctor can think of.

I love both of them. I can not say which one i love most.

I'm with you on this topic. The doctor/nurse will have to offer to listen to their heartbeat.

I'm ok just being the patient, but will listen to my “doctor's" heart and lungs if requested.

I'm seriously in charge of so many things all day at work. Being “the top” sounds exhausting.

I prefer to be listened to as the patient. Although there have been times that mutual auscultation has been rewarding.

Although I mostly start by auscultating my lady patients, I also like that they take a stethoscope on their own to listen to me.

And again - this question is not easy to answer.

First

I like anything and everything about the heart.

…so naturally I like everything about other peoples hearts too.

Second

I prefer to be a patient.

…so naturally I prefer having my heart listened to.

Third

Listening to someone's heart and having my heart listened to gives me two very different (good) feelings.

I like both - but I prefer the feeling I get when someone listens to my heart.

kind Regards

Admittedly, I prefer to be listened to but I do also love to sneak a listen if the other party is inclined. Mutual stething is always a beautiful experience, I think.

Absolutely I agree why not share the fun and listen and get listened to. 😀
