get back to us ladies when they hold you open with a cold metal object and then scrape your insides with a nail file

...mental image!

Can you imagine if us gals talked freely about what really goes on with us? Men would freaking pass out.

his finger was big.

We may have to have a rectal exam too!

<<><<<<<<<< me on my yearly pap day.

It hurt a little bit.

Did you ever serve time in prison, doc?

Soundgarden’s Black Hole Sun. I shit you not. Was playing as they wheeled me in.

Sooner or later it becomes a great idea.

When I get back from my colonoscopy. Save your $$, folks.

JUST KIDDING! maybe ..

Men are so funny about their backsides...

As noted in other comments, NOTHING compares to what women have to deal with.

But to hear us, get anywhere near our rectum and you'd think we were being split wide open. That is obviously not the case, since many men AND women have no problem with it.

A finger is certainly no bigger than most of our bowel movements. The key is to relax. No biggie.

I forget the name of the comedian I watched recently, but one of his bits was about how during sex his girlfriend stuck her finger up his ass and rubbed his prostate. He had no idea she was going to do it. And he was quite surprised by his response to it.

His punch line was that, referring to the prostate, many men are afraid of a little experimentation in that area because they think of it as a "switch", and not a "button". You know, once you flip the switch, the light is now on.....

Hilarious guy.

Get an AFLAC policy. They will pay you if you have a colonoscopy. Of course, paying for the colonoscopy yourself may be cheaper than the premiums.

Did you wash both beard and ass prior to being digitalized?

I like your idea of a sharpie!

And by all means, sit down. Take a load off!

..i had a male dr until one day during a pap exam he left the speculum in me and turned around to talk to his nurse. Well eff that! I was in my 20s in college..(in the 70s) I havent had a male dr since. I dont even have a male dentist now.

I've ever had -- not because of the biopsy itself but because of the ultrasound wand, which was enormous (I've had other ultrasounds that were nowhere near as bad). I can't imagine what women go through with the hardware involved.

Eleven of the samples showed cancer. Four showed all cancer -- no healthy cells. I had a PSA of 52 and a Gleason score of 9.

After proton beam radiation, my PSA is down to 0.1!

[I remember, how many more shots to come? Only 6 or 9 in the magazine?]

Might have to take that one someday myself and I'm hoping you could give us a cheat sheet....

I assume it's a bunch of really personal stuff like "how often do you prostate yourself before a priest?".......
