in winter where the model has a portable heater nearby keeping him warm those studios can get cold), but again, it’s life & it’s fleeting, so the students have to be able to understand it, work with or around it. The male models are prone to erections, of course (esp. ![]() Generally art students prefer people who don’t look like they stepped out of magazines, because they don’t get to see live, 3D “normal people” without clothes too often, and they have to understand how the bodies go if they mean to draw them with clothes later. It’s just bodies, and by no means are they all conventionally beautiful. After a few months they get over the shock of seeing real naked people who can talk. All the students are busy working, drawing, seeing as clearly as they can and making the translation to paper (or whatever medium) before the model moves again. I used to work as a studio model, and while you’d think life-drawing classes would be the obvious place for those who want to leer, there’s really no time for that kind of thing. I’d just call you “overly socialized.” □Īrt students’ SOs run into the same thing. Have you talked about your fears with her? Plus, she is choosing to be with you, so she’s obviously not interested in the guys she does see. It loses it’s novelty and does become just another part to examine. I’m not in med school yet, but I have worked with cadavers and real people. You don’t go through undergrad, med school and residency just to see someone’s private areas. Not knowing her, I’m just assuming she’s a smart, dedicated, nice person. Realistically though, is this something you think you can learn to deal with? Does it help if you rationalize to yourself that the proportion of her patients that are attractive is pretty small, adn that she should be a professional and not be taking in things like levels of attractiveness? If she literally is comparing sizes, that is really unprofessional and violates a patients ability to come to her expecting privacy. □ Most guys who are like “hey I think I have herpes, by the way can we get dinner” just aren’t all there. Any guy that has done that to me at work has been a little….off. As for being propositioned, I understand how that makes you feel. I’ve been in VA hospitals too, and the guys there are not young things usually. As did my 65 year old instructor! So I assure you, it’s more about what the body is designed to do than anything else. ![]() I’ve had guys get erections when inserting a catheter which hurts and is in no way arousing. Second, it is disrespectful to the patient who comes seeking answers to use their time with you to do something as unprofessional as checking them out. You can’t focus on that if you are checking them out. First, you are there to perform an exam and make sure the idnividual is healthy. You have to distance yourself for several reasons. ![]() Romantic, huh? □ Anyway, it seriously is just another part of the body. Erections are just a normal physiological reaction to stimulus to that part of the body.
