Let's not forget the SPECUL, and the STIRRUPS, and the casual conversation one has to have while a fellow or gal is swabbing the entrance to your womb with a stiff brush, and taking a peek at your nether-manicure in the meanwhile. I'd take a finger up the ass any day instead. Oh, the carnival of mundane sent me here. Have to give them the props. Melissa - Yay!!!!!

Men would NOT complain if they had to have a Weiniegram; they'd be thrilled. Men leap at any chance to have their junk handled, and they're not especially fussy about whether said junk is handled gingerly or with force. Just last night my husband demanded I give him a Weiniegram. He's incredibly proactive about his health. That woman is nuts.

And, she always wants me with her now, which I understand. But what disturbs me is the cartoon on the wall in the Mammogram room. It shows a man with his Johnson sandwiched beteween two meal plates (like a mammogram machine) and a terrified and pained look on his face. The caption reads, "Man-o-gram". Yes Neil, in that office, you were the enemy. My wife is a breast cancer survivor, so she has been having mammograms since she was diagnosed four years ago at 36.

Whiners.

It's far more interesting to hear about it from a man's perspective. I want to know why men don't have to get mammograms, as men can get breast cancer.
