To have complained about today’s episode of Loose Women

It was relevant to the subject

but the show is as the say “ of it’s time “
there’s often breathtaking double standards the way they take about men if it was men being the same about women there’d be an outcry

Because your posts gave all the wrong info, once it was corrected by sensible posters, I reckon no more votes went your way!

Have you retracted the complaint, told your DH he was right?

Reminds me to change my vote as I had voted on the basis of your OP.

After the dripfeed, YABU.

Men are notorious for not going to the doctors, especially for such examinations.

If it saves a life, it's worth being shown.

So ask MN to edit your original post to state that this all happened as part of an awareness raising prostrate examination.

See how the voting goes then.

That's simply because of the way you framed the query. You didn't state it was an article about detecting prostate cancer , and instead the inference was that it was on for shock/ titillation/ amusement purposes. Well done !!

P.s. you're the only arse in this saga !!

Those people clearly voted on the basis of your op. Which turned out to be garbage.

Why? Sounds like an examination off camera to raise awareness and one off camera on mannequin. What's gross about the human body? Are cervical exams etc gross?OP is weird.

That doesn’t mean it’s of any value.

My god, tell me you don’t have any life problems without telling me.

If a TV program has taken up so much space in your brain, it’s made you go out of your way to complain and then make a thread about it, you’re blessed.

Yeah but it’s still routinely joked about in media as something awful, painful, borderline sexual. My husband ‘knew’ what it involved but had one recently and was surprised how easy it was contrary to his expectations. like smear tests to some degree - I taught pshe to sixth form and ended up in a ‘health’ section (!) talking about how actually it didn’t have to be painful, their rights re double appointments, chaperones and home testing options. I hope someone’s doing the boys version at the boys’ school
and he wouldn’t have gone at all if I hadn’t insisted.
Women are really important in men’s health issues especially in intimate relationships; I believe it’s often women who feel a testicular lump for example

YABU to watch this dross.

By your thinking, I sexually assault the mannequins at work every time I change their clothes. Some parts are just easier to hold when lifting them.

OP, you are an arse !!!

The segment in question was on preventing prostate cancer, a very worthy topic, get over yourself ffs!

PRESENTER: "This one's for @WithYou47, watching (but not listening) from home."

This Morning have done a live smear test in the studio before

Maybe they’ll reenact a smear test tomorrow to encourage us to go….

Think seeing that would discourage men rather than encourage.

You can’t make a complaint about something when you were simply “channel hopping” and didn’t even get the context. Also, by the way, the first thing I thought when you mentioned inserting a finger was not a sex act, but quite clearly a prostate exam. And finally, what made you think it was Loose Women when the panel was full of men?!

Was your food in your eyes at the time? Agree with your husband. They are trying to raise awareness, whether you think that’s going to put you off your lunch is your issue, don’t make it everybody else’s. It’s also very ignorant.

I think perhaps you need a hobby OP. 😜

And you were unable to LISTEN to the discussion to ascertain what they were talking about?

I dont think any grown women are giggling at a prostate exam. It's an important medical exam that saves lives

A doctors gloved finger is hardly stuff. It's not like they were shoving cream éclairs in.

It could have been worse, it could have been a real hairy arsehole for all to see. I'm sure Trump was on the ITV news that followed though.

Boom boom.

Bum bum.

Trump tee hee!

I am actually 50.

Assume

Makes an ass of u and me!

Your assumption was wrong, so I suggest that you retract your complaint, tell your DH he is right and agree that men’s health also matters! You don’t complain about breast checking demos, so don’t complain about prostrate demos!

How were you to know? Watch it fully and then form an opinion. You assumed and got it wrong.

next time, be fully informed before you complain.
