Pretend you're swallowing a big piece of meat.

[Flowersforyourchocolateprettyplease]

Have been to the hospital for a Gastroscopy. Consultant came to have a chat before the procedure, just him and I in the little room.
He explained what would be happening and said " as the tube goes down, pretend you're swallowing a big piece of meat".

I was nervous about the procedure and once it was done, I was chatting to a male friend and mentioned the comment above.
Friend says to report him as that's unacceptable language from a professional and thinks it was a sexual innuendo.

Also thinks it would have been inappropriate to a vegan or someone with eating issues.

YABU : It was an innocent remark.
YANBU: Dirty minded consultant.

If you or your friend think you swallow anything then you guys are doing it wrong! 😅. It doesn’t even make any sense to think it could be an innuendo

Meat is now so expensive. And would need to imagine what swallowing a large piece would be like.

Many people can't afford to buy it. And rumour has it.Instead of eating it.They just sit gulping and salivating in groups and pretend they have just eaten a really thick juicy steak.

Not in the slightest bit surprised. Comment was taken as sexual innuendo by someone who has Woke or PC Hyper Activity Disorder.

Please get a life.

This is silly.

What on, the piece of meat?
😉😁😁.

Both are tube shaped, go down your throat and you don't chew. 🙄

I have had 10 plus endoscopes (I have had so many I can not remember how many) and I find the comment about meat very odd so I am not surprised your friend did too.

Jesus

Is this some kind of wind up? Are you looking for ways to be offended? Vegans can't even hear the word "meat" without crying? Is that what you're saying? Your minimising true SA with a phrase in a medical profession? What in the world...

A lot of responses, including OP's focus on the anaesthetic offered not to medical professionals language. 🙄
Such wokeism.

Your friend is totally ridiculous. I worked in that department and yes that is what is being said. People like her are a huge problem in today’s society.

Are people here deliberately pretending not to understand, to gaslight the OP? No wonder women are afraid to report sexual harassment or even confide in other women.

Absolute best reply on here! 🤣🤣🤣

And the most ridiculous response! Are you the OPs weirdo mate?!

"Digestive, suggestive. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, know what I mean?"

Or as someone once put it: everything's either concave or -vex, so whatever you dream will be something with sex. (I think this may be one of Piet Hein's Grooks.)

The post was about the language, moved on to anaesthetic which I commented on.

True, agree or disagree, there are ways to put one's point across without insults.

I remember at 16 being told by a male doctor to always be vigilant when being seen alone by a male doctor.
He could have been advising innocently, but according to some on here, he must have a dirty mind if that's what he thinks of other doctors.
