    I wonder if I am just paranoid or imagining things, but I feel like I’ve noticed a distinct difference between male and female gynecologists. It seemed to me that female gynecologists knew how the examination felt to me and took more care to make sure I was comfortable. The male ones were very efficient and brisk, and the examinations were physically painful. One of the male gynos gave me a creepy smile afterward. Then there was this incident -not gynecology-related: I’d been having back pain from a car accident. The male doctor who examined me cut the examination short and told me about his unhappy marriage and asked me to meet him at a bar sometime. I was 18. Now I generally try to always see female doctors. I have nothing against male doctors and know there are a lot of good ones out there; I just don’t feel too comfortable with them anymore.
