I went back to the doctor (caught a cold). I decided to ask again and insist on a scientific number. At my last doctor's appointment, the nurse told me that she had worked in an emergency room. I asked her if it was true that a large number of men come in wearing women's underwear. She had said, yes. She assumed I do not crossdress. She laughed and remarked about it in humor. She kind of verified that it was like 1 in 10 to 1 in 20, but in her humor (she's a fun lady), I felt like the number might not have been as accurate as it was fun to say. So, I decided to ask again. I asked her again how many, but I want a scientific number. She paused and thought and then responded, 1 in 15 to 20 men. I remarked again at how surprised I am. That's between 5-7%. She did not joke around this time about it, but she still seemed like she did not think it applied to me. I asked her is that number conservative or generous. She said she thought it might be conservative.
When the doctor came in, I decided to ask again just to verify the number. She said she knew of only one patient. I told her what the nurse said. She said the nurses give shots, so they see a lot of people's waistlines.
Please, ask your health care professional! My approach was, "I have heard it said that in the emergency room, a large number of guys who come in are wearing ladies' underwear. Is that true? Can you estimate how many?"
