fossilesqueThat's it. That's the joke.
nalinnaThe only male doctor at my ob/gyn was visibly angry when I told him my experience getting the IUD. He said, “The women in this practice don’t give anesthetic and it makes me furious with them.” Way to be a decent human in a sea of assholes, dude.
This is my experience too, ironically. Lmao. One woman I even chose for her compassionate care awards. I never saw her again. I still generally seek out women doctors for other things.
[deleted] in lemmyMy guess is that women who have had their pain dismissed for their entire lives fall into the trap of internalizing the dismissal.
This is actually a pretty good thought.
