But once I had an OB give me a child-sized speculum, which made me all o.O because of the *need* for child-sized speculums, first, and also, that's the solution for me? It helped, though.
See, and I've read (on the internet, so you KNOW it's true!) that the "child-sized speculum" doesn't actually exist, and doctors just say they're using a smaller one so that the patient will relax.
How far are you now? Have you gotten to the most confusing chapter ever (i.e., the one where you see what The Plan was)?
I haven't gotten there yet, alas. I probably will soon, though.
Also, I too adore L beyond the telling of it.
last time I asked for sti screening my GP got all judgy
Heh. The last time *I* asked for one, the gyn was kinda like "uh, lesbian still right?" and I was like "yeah, but they CAN still get diseases!" and she was like "Uh, sure, ok..." all "Crazy lady...."
Which is funny, but kinda unhelpful in a "lesbians should actually still be encouraged to get screened because though they are at lower risk they are still at risk" way...

Huh. That could be totally true. I am way gullible most of the time. Power of suggestion, baby!
Jesus! I'm surprised I didn't send that thing across the room
Snerk.
I wonder if the Guy!Bitches are hiding their eyes from all this. Though ND is apparently wishing for some sort of release from his travail.
Nothing makes ND hide his eyes. Except possibly really bad acting.
No, wait. He watches B-Movies for fun.
I return to, "Nothing makes ND hide his eyes."
Why would I hide my eyes?
My brain just protects me from my traitorous eyes by telling me those strange words you are using are just foreign words for lollipops.
And Steph, just because you didn't like the foreign lollipop you received at the doctor's office, there is no need to want to send it across the room...
