Not a gynecologist but my skin doctor (sorry don't know the word in English) is a man and I have to go to him once every six months to make sure my freckles and birth marks are safe. Every six months I stand in front of this old guy in my underwear while he inspects my body head to toe with a magnifying glass (!!) and never have I felt unsafe. Men don't get falsely accused, they get caught.

Yes!!! My GP is a male and has done gynecological check-ups on me and I've never felt unsafe or him giving me any type of off-vibe.

Meanwhile, my chiropractor was male, and he was creepy as heck. I'm pretty sad about it too, because he was technically very good at his job, and I never once had a problem that he didn't take seriously or couldn't fix.

Sorry to hear that, good chirolractors are hard to find. I am incredibly happy my loving grandma is my chiropractor. But if she wasn't, I'd take zero shit from any creepy specialist, no matter what area.

They are!! They either want to do that action movie neck crack on you, or they prescribe accupuncture or some other hoodoo as part of their routine. Or there is just no "chemistry," which is important to me, as I want to be comfortable and not embarrassed or rushed or misunderstood by my physician, ya know?
[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I'm so sorry you had such a bad experience. I will say that accupuncture has done wonders for me before so if you're open to a new experience I would definitely recommend. But that doesn't mean you don't deserve a chiropractor you feel safe and comfortable with, and I hope you find one.
[–]AlextheAnalystPickmeisha™️2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Thank you for hoping with me!
I am open to new things - accupuncture just isn't one of those things. The old chiropractor used to use quite a few unorthodox techniques, which was one of the things I really liked about him as a professional. I have no time for old-school doctors, lol.
Sigh ... sad world we live in.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Too true, it's sad that we have to worry every time we see a doctor.
[–]Half_HaltFDS Newbie7 points8 points9 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
No great loss, imo. Chiropractics rarely helps long term without some manual myofascial release/soft tissue release therapy like Graston used in conjuction. And ime, most chiros aren't well-versed in those therapies.
[–]AlextheAnalystPickmeisha™️2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This one definitely helped me. He used techniques that most others didn't, and was very thorough about finding the cause and fixing you properly so that you didn't have to go back to him every five minutes. Medically speaking, his approach really worked for me.

The word you’re looking for is dermatologist! I’m the same way also; never felt uneasy around my physicians.
[–][deleted] 10 points11 points12 points 5 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Yes thank you so much I forget my English online a lot!! I'm so glad you found safe people to keep you healthy and happy.
[–]bossbabekaren2point06 points7 points8 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
It’s okay; it happens :) and I’m glad for you also and I hope you continue to have healthy freckles
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Thank you so much, I love all my little marks and getting a check up is a small price to pay for them
[–]bossbabekaren2point01 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I totally didn’t know you could get problems with them😅 so I learnt something new today! I’m glad you love them though haha

Yeah melanoma is no joke
[–][deleted] 13 points14 points15 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I have. Totally weird rapey vibes from a former doctor of mine. Never went back.
[–]bossbabekaren2point03 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Dang that really sucks; it sucks that you had to feel that way near a professional. I hope you found someone you’re comfortable with.

Just make sure it isn't too thin or see through, or you'll be asking for sexual harrasment

Not a gynecologist but my skin doctor
Dermatologist?
[–]Random192859184169 points170 points171 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The only men who worry about “false” accusations are predators who constantly push boundaries as much as they can. The accusations are never actually false. They’re shitty manipulators like most males.
[–]HmtnswFDS Newbie164 points165 points166 points 5 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
I have a male gynecologist. He is very kind and respectful. Never gave off creepy vibes. I told him I was sexually active so he gave me some free BC under the table because he hated seeing all the young women walk up into his office pregnant and was like "I don't want to see you walk in here one day like that."
[–]SaffroFDS Newbie12 points13 points14 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I don’t know what country you’re from but comments like this always make me so glad I live in the UK. Birth control is always free, including the morning after, and pretty much every time I was at a doctors age 16+ they would ask if I want to go on the pill yet. I honestly think free bc is one of the major steps towards equality.
[–]HmtnswFDS Newbie9 points10 points11 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I live in the States. And on top of that, in the Southeast which is one of the most conservative areas outside like central to southern Florida, within the country.

"false" claims are fake news.

I remember reading about the case of a male gynaecologist who uses his occupation to perform horrid, abusive acts on his female patients. Don't wanna go into detail as it might trigger some people here but it includes a spraying bottle and various liquids such as hydrogen peroxide, vinegar... This is why I refuse to trust male practitioners and exclusively go to female doctors.
Edit: Men are monsters
[–]throwthisawayred34 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
same here. i don't need to take that risk.
plus -why do men wanna be OBGYNs anyway? even if they're the utmost respectful doctors, it's still like..why though???
[–]spacechicken1990FDS Newbie26 points27 points28 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
My gyno is a middle aged man, utmost professional & polite. Only rapists get accused
[–]Silverpool201824 points25 points26 points 5 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
One of the most non-judgmental gynaecologists that I came across in my country was a male. Professional, direct, did not hide or evade information, did not ask prying questions or made judgmental comments.
Good doctor.
Edit: Not against women doctors, but I've seen more women gynaecs in India being way more judgmental and insensitive. Especially older ones.

There's a German male gynecologist who is one of only a FEW who do abortions. He is faced with harassment and death threats everyday. When questioned why he does it he said :" If I won't do it, nobody will". He is or will soon retire. I really have a huge problem with males in Healthcare bc a lot of them live their God complex out or harass. But this man. This one got my full trust. I am sad that he retires and I hope he finds a good doctor who takes over.
[–]LadyGrimesFDS Disciple75 points76 points77 points 5 years ago (10 children) | Copy Link
Sorry but I don't trust male gynecologists at all.
[–]thinktwiceorelseFDS Newbie45 points46 points47 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
My obgyn is believed to be the best in my city, but he started talking weird, he believes conspiration theories, and he had weird comments like when he asked if I had any allergies and he went on like: to any drugs, or even allergy to men... I was like wtf. He tried to be "funny". I'll probably change my obgyn soon.
[–]MrAndMrsCremgroblinPickmeisha™️24 points25 points26 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Can I ask what he said with the allergy of men? Because some woman are actually allergic to sperm and can have really bad reactions like difficulty breathing.
[–]thinktwiceorelseFDS Newbie21 points22 points23 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Nothing like that unfortunatelly. What he meant was literally if I hated men. I don't know why he asked it though. He asked if I'm sexually active, I said I'm not right now, and that I'm after a recent break up (I tend to overshare when I'm nervous) and then he said that allergy thing.
[–]seawitchbitchFDS Newbie5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Omg yes! For me it burned horribly. Just another way my body was telling me I’m gay 😅
[–]AlextheAnalystPickmeisha™️21 points22 points23 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
My main issue with them is confusion. Like, why??
[–]LadyGrimesFDS Disciple2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Don't you know they care about women's health and don't just want to invade their privacy?/s
[–]oh_shit_oh_fuckFDS Newbie27 points28 points29 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Same here. Just seems like a huge conflict of interest. I always make sure to see a woman now.

Oh ok. I figured but I had trouble figuring out the first sentence's implications.
Anyways, I just realized your username! A lady in a discord server we share asked for you some time ago. I can provide the info over PM if you'd like (I tried but can't send you one).
[–]cantsextihavebillsPickmeisha™️73 points74 points75 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
They're saying that a large majority of male doctors that come into direct contact with women's genitals as a job are able to go 40-50 years without sexual assault allegations, but Todd that works in Billing is worried he can't finish the quarter without having a "false rape allegation" lobbied at him. I think.

I have a male chiropractor, the nicest guy ever. He’s professional and I always feel safe.

I have a male GP and he doesn't give me gynecological exams. On one hand, I get it that doing a gynecological exam sucks, on the other hand, it's in his job description!
When I was anxious to get tested for STDs he made me wait months and he referred me to a gynecologist. The gynecologist scolded me for wasting his time and told me to tell my GP he has to do the PAP test himself.
I don't feel comfortable forcing my GP to look at a vag when he clearly doesn't want to so I've been going without screenings since. Male docs are okay but lazy.
