    in the UK the doctor would generally only requset to do a prostrate exam if they suspected that there was something amiss.
    so i would rethink it, if there is something wrong, it could mean the possibility of you not being able to get an erection, you getting cancer or dieing, for example.

    and to everyone in this thread that found this subject funny (I suppose its not unusual as it is in random thoughts) however men are literally dieing of embarrassment, because they cannot face going to the doctors for these types of checkups.

    so next time your husbands, boyfriends, father and male friends have concerns of this nature, make sure you all laugh just as hard, I'm sure it will help them big time

    must be a different country thing... i see guys pulling their nuggets out in public all the time here so i can't believe they'd be shy about an exam. doctors see dozens of genitals a day, they don't care any more about yours than the 10 people who came before you. it would hardly be worth enduring the pain and suffering of cancer cos you were too chicken to get an exam.

    Dude, don't be afraid of dropping your pants for a doctor. I just did it the other day [went in for my school physical] and I was actually alarmed because I hadn't been to a physical (let alone a doctor's office) since I was like... 10. So I didn't suspect they had to um... check my balls, so to speak. So of course I'm a little shy about this shit (or extremely!) and I was terrified when at the last minute I realized what I had to do.

    But then afterward I felt relieved that I was healthy and all that good stuff.

    Those ones are for colon checkups...directed at women as well.

    Sam, I am not trying to make light of someone's illness, I was joking about the checkup itself, maybe if someone thinks of it as less serious it will help.

    Over here, these checks are recommended over a certain age. It doesn't necessarily mean anything. Like pap smears, yes it could find something, but usually doesn't. They make us get up there and get probed rather often anyway...;)

    The thought of finding a little humor in the exam would make it easier. Thanks and cheers!

    I'm waiting for doctors to discover a more humane method of checking the prostate.

    I just gave a little thought on swallowing an object to have a little fun during my exam

    I think I'm going with a coin - because it would be easier to swallow. I might even start practicing starting with our smallest coin the dime and try to work my way up to our largest coin the Lonnie. Cheers.
