With the impending sperm test now looming heavily on his shoulders one wonders what the etiquette is for a sperm test? I suppose he shouldnt be shy when mentioning to the receptionist that is why he is here today. Afterall, that is her job. She must meet men like him all the time. He wonders if she thinks they are all perverts who come here. Well must get signed in and probably wait for his turn.
What will it be like in that cold clinical room. Will it be a colourless white room. All painted white. with a neat pile of vile magazines stacked in a corner. Will the pile be neat? probably not. The gentleman before him has probably had to use the same magazine.
How long should he be in there? If he leaves the room too quick, the receptionist…and the other waiting participants will glance over towards him knowingly. Should he just there for a few minutes. Maybe text a few people. Check his email on his Motorola Z8 mobile phone. His RSS too. All this will probably result in being the room for maybe 6 or seven minutes.
What to do when leaving the room? Should he be confident. After all he hasnt done anything wrong. Thats what the place is made for. Maybe a skip in his step when he leaves the room. Should he smile at the receptionist when handing over the prized goods. Maybe not. Maybe appear casual. Act cool. ok love thanks love when do i get my results love!
^ You know, it's not the receptionist's job to handle any kind of "goods" for one.
And secondly, you don't even "hand" the goods in person. You slip the "goods" in a chamber by sliding open a covered window. You put the "goods" in and shut it. The lab techs pick it up from the other side.
As for "skip in his step".. haha... that's funny. Maybe if he walked out and said, "Wow! That was quite a mother load"! then gave the person waiting in line the "wink and the gun", he would be forever remembered! hahahaha...
sheesh man. well, at least it can give a guy kind of an idea of what the gals have to endure when they visit their Gyn.
They've all seen it before, many times. Its no big deal to them, its just another day at work.
Take a deep breath, relax and just go wit the flow...
Sorry I dont mean to sound irreverant or insulting here...its just that it really ISNT a big deal to the people who will be faced on test day and yeah, its a hugely embarrassing thing but one which needs to get done so like nike says...just DO it!
StoneCold, like the others said, these things are normal procedures for people working there so the person must not feel stressed or embarrased. At least he should try to be confident and relaxed.
what, a little humour does not hurt.
how many people here have gone for one?
I have, so here goes.
begum and i faced fertility issues and I had to go for one, it was a little room with some overused mags, and a small vcr with some lame 70s nudie flicks that were more of a turnoff than anything else. how exactly are you able to be turned on by watching some pasty white hippe dude making out with some boney, stringy hair, flat chic.
begum being the rockstar that she is had inquired on all this stuff for me, and actually went and got me some choice nudie mags..Big 'uns ( as al bundy would say) or something like that. i had a backpack with my own choice porn in it, latina something and big un something.
you do your binid, u label the cup seal it and put it in this small drop thing and press a bell. No one really cares how long u were there.
but yeah the surroundings, the pressure and the fears put quite a bit of anxiety and like thats probaby the only time in your life that you will face performance anxiety with yourself (the other time being when you are trying out for a individual/solo membership of the mile high club..okay too much info )
the other damn problem..the place is uncomfortable, no proper place to put the errr literature..and if it is a new mag ayways it wants to just close or papers wont stay flat…although the ladies in the schematic drawings were anything but flat..bada bing bada boom…so how do you target it for the cup..my advice…dont wear a long shirt..u cant be holding it up with one hand, u really need both hands..one to do your binid and other to hold the damn cup.
enjoy the party with the cup. Its not a big deal. it would be if you make a big deal out of it. btw some of yer chichoray pals may give you a hard time about the test, just tell em their momma helped you for the test, that usually works
you are listening to lois lane too much.
have I thought about it sure, but what would I really write about, random experieces, some sad some strange across the globe.
been done before.
I am writing a book called stop procrastination in 365 days.
to original poster- look we get all worked up about it cuz of societal taboos, and what ppl would say and think, and like really aren’t we beyond that now. What has to go is the sort of grade schoolish thinking that makes ppl act in a way which would make someone in such a situation uncomfortable enough to hide it.
In our case we found out all was well, and the issue was something else, but again, if it was not, then what, and how does it affect anyone else but you.
be proud, and know that this is one of those times in your life that you can do what you would do anyways :halo: and not have to hide it
but see muzna, it was a genuine inquiry and no real answers being given, so its all stated, vouyers can get their kicks but the bloke's question gets answered, and what better than...first hand experience...(pun not really intended but kinda hard to dodge)
