The Dreaded Finger - Prostate Exam
The #1 dreaded medical exam thing for most men is the dreaded finger or prostate exam. A prostate exam can help your doctor diagnose an enlarged or inflamed prostate. It can also help them diagnose prostate cancer, which is the second most common form of cancer among American men. For some reason, most men will say it is gay (showing their homophobic side), or they are afraid it will hurt. And then there is the good old job about the doctor putting both his hands on your shoulder for the exam (think about it….)
Alright, let’s talk about the gay thing, first. I’m not sure how a doctor performing a legitimate medication procedure is gay. I’m sure it is because the homophobic ‘Alpha’ male uses that as an excuse. Just because a male doctor sticks his finger up your ass and touches your prostate, then it is gay. It’s not like he is whipping his out and pounding you with it. Grow up guys, this could very well save your life. If not for you then for your family.
Think about all the degrading exams the ladies have to go through. So we can do this once a year or every few years, depending on your doctor.
So the whole, it will hurt thing, seriously, I know that you have been proud of some of the shit that comes out of your ass, but a single lubricated finger, about a 4th the diameter of your best “bowl wrapper”, is going to hurt. It might hurt your pride, but it certainly isn’t going to hurt you as in pain.
When can I expect to have this test?
Most doctors will recommend your first one somewhere in your 40s, but I know some that recommend your first one at 50. I’m 52 and I have my first one when I was 40.
