I could care less and it's none of my hubby's business. There weren't that many women doctors around when I was younger. It's only this generation that actually gets a choice (ethnic, color, gender). Having watched my sister work, I know for the doctor it is simply a job, no sexual implications at all. I am amused when a male GP or gynecologist gently asks me if I want a female aide in the room. I don't require it.
Georgia, this has been my experience as well:
I would say that in my humble opinion...women are not as gentle as men.
I've gone so far as to refuse a certain female gynecologist in this city from ever getting near me again. As a side note, my daughter is much more squeamish and will only open up for a woman doctor.
