Unless Iâm literally bleeding out, Iâd rather shoot myself in the dick than go a doctor

You know all that medical gaslighting and not having their problems taken seriously women complain about?
Men donât experience that as much because we just donât go to the doctor in the first place.

But if you shot yourself in the dick, now youâre bleeding out.

As a cis male, Iâve found the opposite to be true. I do go to the Dr. for all kinds of stuff. I also tend to tell it like it is when in a consult/visit. Thatâs where I noticed that things are backwards for me. Iâm taken too seriously, as though Iâm under-playing my symptoms. Itâs actually led to a few cases of being over-prescribed on things.

hell yeah brother we donât need a doctor to gaslight us, we can do that just fine on our own, repeatedly saying âiâm fine, itâll go away soon anywayâ (half joking)
