We're all not that much different.

RGIII? Half of the WashingtonDC Reddit community just got wood. He's a stud.

Common misconception. In countries like the UK, Canada, and the U.S., one needs a bachelors degree at a minimum to matriculate. The average age of a first year medical student at my school is 25. A third year medical student decided a specialty would do so at 28. Finish residency at 32.

And trust me, as a male medical student, there is just no sexual factor interest to factor. I can appreciate that the woman waiting in the emergency department for a transvaginal ultrasound has different experiences to drawn from. But to me, she's a patient, one of twenty or so that I've seen undressed from the waist down in a single call shift, and nothing is "sexy."

It's been most difficult in pediatrics actually, getting past being a male doctor. My girlfriend hasn't run into issues doing male or female well exams and sports physicals, but I have had more than a few exams that I couldn't bring the patient to comfortably do. Once a parent of a two year old even stopped me from going a check. I just have to pause and remember that I don't know the patient and family history.

It shouldn't be something that I take personal, but it still bothers me. I want to be "the doctor," the guy who you go to and trust in during times of need.

Thanks. I was scrolling for the answer to this question.

This looks like an awesome movie in the making. Would the experience be most similar to Se7en, Memento, or Saw?
