HBO @ Noon: Who Handles P Exams?

EJS (re: MikeK sez Bris rather than Circ-Word): Being a male I ask the rest of the males in here: Who better to do a prostate exam, a man or woman doctor? And to the women, a male for female OBGYN?

Sisyphus: I have a very attractive female GP who performs the procedure on me every year, ejs. And still she offers no cigarette when we're done.

JeanieSpokane:  Uh, DFO, P exams for lunch? That covers so many things. The prostrate exam, the pap smear, and the pee test. I'm hungry already.

Question: Who would you prefer to handle the sensitive part of your physical exam? A male doctor? Or a female one?
