Not going to offer many details on the where or how, as I don't intend to dox myself, but suffice it to say that I will continue touching butts for an extended period. I don't like feeling aroused by the act. These people placed trust in me. Trust that I mean them no harm and that I am safe to be around. I can certainly be both while aroused, but I'd rather not have to deal with this.

I'd prefer not to dissociate through work, but I can't find another way to contextualize my experiences in a way that doesn't leave me frustrated until I get home.

I guess that makes sense.

My only exposure to home health at all was an occasional drop in when I had a... damn I forget what it was called now. Similar to a central line but slightly different. Whatever it was, they would come and check on it, change out the dressing and that was it.

So I saw them for maybe half an hour at a time every week, or every other week. Sorry I've had a lot of surgeries and issues in the last 5 years and they tend to blur together.

I guess for regular (typically older patient) stuff, you would be around a lot more.

I have gotten way over nurses and doctors seeing me naked. The first time an attractive female nurse removes a Foley from you, you lose any chance of having a sexual reaction to that (unless that's your thing I guess lol- and I know it's somebody's thing because I have run into it on the hub.

Or even if that's not weird enough, having to go in to have a stent removed, you really, definitely are done caring about being seen like that.

But I'm regular life, I do stay clothed around everyone as an autonomous thing. Outside of medical staff (and my roommate who has to call the ambulance the one time), no one has seen me naked at all.

I'm also a single person on the grayish side of the ace spectrum, so it's not like I have a ton of partners to look at me.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
