Code of Conduct

Today I experienced the lovely and sometimes dreaded, yearly female exam. Now most women go through different levels of preparing for these exams. They talk themselves into it, prepare the area and decide what the best clothing choice would be exam approved. I for one, don't take my prep work lightly and typically this is an ordeal for me, which in turn means I hate it. Mostly I hate it because no one really likes to have another person in their junk that hasn't gone through the stages of courting; flowers, name exchange, drinks and depending on the issues, more drinks. You get the picture, Right?

Well, today's exam didn't exactly go the way I thought that it would. As my Nurse PA is down in the "exam position" and I'm in the "Hello, World" position, she starts to have a conversation with me about my last year's activity and concerns I could have with my "precious". A little taken back at the idea that "we" (really meaning HER) are really trying to "small talk" while I'm in a little vunerable position. She continues to small talk and a couple of informational tid-bits were exchanged. Then she stops in mid-exam with me still in the stir-ups and tells me, "Did you know you have a sensitive virgina?"

***Pause to reflect***

What? A sensitive virgina?

Now maybe I was being a little sensitive but I truly think there was maybe a more "comfortable" way of saying that and two, what the hell is a sensitive virgina? Can anyone tell me?

Then my "funny side" took over and I couldn't help but think about my experiences with "sensitive people" and laugh out loud because typically those types need cheerleaders in their life to do anything. So instantly I think, I will now have to pep-talk my "precious" into doing anything. I share my thoughts with my Nurse PA, she didn't find my views too amusing.

Really? I thought it was funny.
