Today, I went to my new doctor to establish the paperwork. During the questionnaire, she asked if I was sexually active. I said yes. She then asked, "what do you do?". I told her I normally did vaginal, but would sometimes do anal. She blushed and started to laugh. She was asking where I worked. FML
I agree, your life sucks (48026) - you totally deserved it (31245)

(0)hey... she layed a trick question for you... who would suddenly change from a sexual topic into asking "what do you do?" expecting you to know what she means... can't she be clearer by asking "What do you work as?"... she's literally FUCKING with you... literally

(0)I'm guessing the poster is female, seeing as her doctor is female. Maybe I'm just assuming incorrectly? But normally if I were to do a check up, I would definitely prefer a male. I just feel more comfortable that way. but this isn't that bad of a fmy, amusing though :]
(0)haha that very well could be an answer to what you do for work. hookers go to the doctor too!

(0)Well how the hell were you supposed to know she was talking about a job?! If she randomly switched from sex to work, and used ambiguous language, then I don't blame you.
Why is #2 retarded/an idiot? I've always wondered the same thing, and I'm female.
(0)#19, what a smooth way to play it off. I'd be too embarrassed. BUT it was the doc's fault for wording it like that! I can see why a medical profession would need to know about the general details of your sex life, it's for safety purposes.

veryy funny. i cracked up. but i agree with everyone saying how were you supposed to know what she was talking about when she just switches topics?
(0)ha ha ha ha ha. this made me laugh SO hard because i went to the gynecologist one time, and had something similar happen. shared a little more information with the doctor than she needed. ha ha ha ha.

(0)Heh, that sucks. Kinda' her fault though for not phrasing that better.

(0)dude. that sucks. i agree, how are you supposed to know when she changes the subject like that.

(0)they should have made it clearer what they were asking cause even i thought that they were talking about the sex still.

(0)i agree you should have played it off as you understood the Q and gave the same A. then you could have just said you were joking or something.
(0)thats so funny. but at least she was able to laugh/have a sense of humor about it!
i went to a doctor once for a routine check up and when i told her she was sexually active she asked how many partners i had had. when i told her she scoffed and recommended a full std workup because someone who'd "been around" as much as me was "sure to have caught something." i dont know what people normally tell her, but i always thought that 5 was a respectably LOW number for a single and sexually healthy adult. i, naturally, requested to see another physician.

(0)wow thats funny, im gona be looking for an FML reading "today at work some woman told me she does anal wen i asked wut she does for a living"

(0)Bwahhahahaha...that's classic. I've accidentally told my doctors too much before, as well. That pause when you realize you told them more than you should have is a seemingly long, uncomfortable one.
(0)I don't really think that was OP's fault, just some bad wording by the doctor/nurse.
#41 - On 03/16/2009 at 4:36pm by TheCrow471
(0)Poor wording or not, it should be pretty obvious that a doctor (unless maybe in very specific scenarios maybe pertaining to STDs or some such) wouldn't need to know that information.
(0)you kinda deserved that one because you should have known but that just sucks. i feel for ya!

(0)ohhhh ahahahaha lmao i just got this!!!!!!!!!! wooww that took my about 10 minutes of staring dumbfoundedly at the computer screen before i realized it. haha. lmao thats hilarious

(0)Any clinician worth her salt would ask about specific sexual behaviors in order to identify and give advice on high-risk behavior. It was a logical follow-up question, you were totally right for telling her.
(0)I think OP is a girl.
"Sometimes I would do anal?"
Most guys wouldn't mind anal all the time, especially when they done it before?
(0)#2, you are still retarded. and off point.
Otherwise, Noname, at least you made a connection at the office. You're not just a number anymore, you're a name!
Again, #2, really. Really? Really? I'd like to start a segment I call "Really." Really, #2? Really? Do you live in a box? Your asinine comment is really irritating. Really.

(0)the doctor should've worded the question differently..
#53 - On 03/16/2009 at 6:59pm by calmthefuck_down
(0)Ahaha, that's gotta be awkward.
But really, she should have worded it differently.
#57 - On 03/16/2009 at 7:59pm by rockandrollbf
(0)#48, it depends on why the person is at the doctor. Furthermore, the question would not be "what do you do?" Doctors tend to ask things using more scientific or technical terms.
It's why they ask you when your last bowel movement was rather than "when did you last take a shit?"
(0)#6's right on the game. I don't think OP had it coming. The doctor did and I think most will agree that ASSUMING that was on accident, she'll reconsider how she asks questions.
#64 - On 03/17/2009 at 12:49am by DisturbedDriver
(0)hahah, at least you got a funny story out of it.
An eye doctor once asked me to open wide, and so I opened my mouth. And that's not a funny story, just a sad one. But this, this is grade A funny
(0)omgoshh how did you have the guts to even say that! hgahahahahahaha

(0)well, why would she ask those questions in a row like that?
kind of stupid of her not to expect that, if you ask me.
(0)I don't think it's much of an FML, it's kinda sounds like a cute/funny situation. Luckily she let that go though right?
