The question pretty much asked what task a nurse would fight to perform on a hot male patient... i only saw this because I was in a waiting room but the answers were to give a sponge bath, take a temperature (rectal), give a needle, or take their blood pressure............... I know this is a game show and I don't know who is surveyed for these questions or answers but for someone not taken off guard too easily I was pretty confused by the stereotyping. Thought it was interesting to mention.

Oh my gosh . . . I can't sleep and am looking at threads I usually don't look at and laughing here in my quiet kitchen.
You are really talented Farawyn - my grandson-to-be does this awesome one-eyebrow-raising thing and I can't do it to save my life. Only both go up.
Yeah, as a former ER nurse, I've seen my share (and more really) of those up-the-rectum adventures.
I dunno Rosie . . . making that stuff less of a "taboo" seems impossible to me.
