Door to door breast exams?

Link

Ladies of JU, what would you do if a strange elderly man came to your door, told you he was a doctor and offered you a free breast exam?

Would you let him in and let him give your twins a feel?

I wouldn't. 

But some women in a Florida neighborhood thought that it was a totally normal thing to happen, and they let him in their homes and allowed him to give them an 'exam'.  In fact, he was only reported after he failed to put on gloves during a genital exam - apparently that was enough for one woman to think something nefarious was afoot (I'd like to know how a breast exam suddenly because a genital exam, but then again I'd never have let him in in the first place).

The thing that really astounds me is that the women who let him in weren't elderly, they were in their 30's.  My age.  I'd have understood if perhaps they were older ladies who weren't familiar with modern society and all it's scams.  But women my age?  They should have known better.  Doctors don't go door-to-door offering to give 'free' exams.  If there were such a thing as a free exam at home, courtesy of the county (which is where this guy said he was from) there would have been apoointments involved.  He wouldn't just have shown up out of the blue.

I'm a little awed that anyone let this guy in their homes, let alone showed him their boobs, and I'm alarmed and disgusted that they allowed genital exams to take place.  There are reports of women and children (even men too) being raped, molested and murdered every day by people who show up at their homes unannounced, pretending to be something that they're not.  It's a harsh reality of the society we have created for ourselves. 

Will people ever learn?

I must say I admire the balls of the guy, but how on earth could anyone really believe him? I guess there are some really gullible people out there.

I think that his age played a big part in it - he's 76.  I suppose these women who let him in thought that no-one that age would be a pervert on the loose. 

He DOES have some huge cohones for even trying it, though!

No. They never will. ::

But he says he's a doctor! You can trust him! Doctors don't lie or anything.

Imagine the average person, and tremble at the realization that 50% of the rest of the world are dumber than him/her.

Well, given the fact that arrests have no bearing on what people attempt, I'd expect one of these guys in every neighborhood now that they know they can get it to work on some people. Glad he didn't claim to be a pediatrician, I doubt they'd be walking him anywhere... more like wheeling him around.

Yeah, he looks kinda like he could be a family doctor. But still, he must have charm to boot to talk the ladies into dropping their guard (so to speak).

It reminds me of those shirts that you see on the guys with mullets that say "Breast Inspector".

Ugh.

People really have become gullible. I can't really describe this concept in English, so I'll have to translate and use a little spanglish.
If you want to say it's a lot of something, or really something, you can put the word "re" on the beginning of the original word. "Rete" is a bit stronger than "re". "Récate" is one of the strongest adjectives in Mexican spanish.
These poor women were "récate ingenuas" - super super super gullible.

As a paramedic, I was always a little wary by the trust people put in us. I mean, here I am, a total stranger... walking into your home and basically taking over. I could ask you to show me any part of your body and most likely you would comply without question. I could ask you the most intimate questions about you, your sex life, your eating habits.. anything.

While I'm in your home, you totally trusted me looking through your medicine cabinet, refrigerator... etc... I could just walk into any room in your home... like I said.... this perfectly stranger came in your home and took over.

When I was in sales I also learned that trust is cheap. Even as a lowly telemarketer, if the call was going ot result in a sale, it was locked up in less than 30 seconds... That means that after knowing me for half a minute people were willing to give me their credit card numbers, addresses and other information.

It kind of hurts to hear about people violating the trust we give others... especially at the professional level. After reading (or becoming the victim) about this old perv, how many women are going to lose that trust for doctors, nurses, EMTs.. etc... how much harder will the job be if people are no longer willing to trust that we are there for them?

Well, at least he wasn't a violent rapist. But you're so right: I can't imagine in my day, any woman falling for such nonsense.

Whoa. Dumb^1000...

Hopefully none were underage.

The only difference between these women, and the Darwin Winners, is they lived to tell about it.  This is very stupid, but then the other stories we read about where stupidity is rampant do not involve the party living to regret it.  I guess we should not be surprised, although I continue to be.

A door-to-door Dr, that's a good one! Heck, I have a hard enough time getting to see a dr. when I make an appt and wait for an hour or so. There's a sucker born every minute, right? I only hope those women, so lacking in brains, don't have children!

See, the problem is the guy made it safely to 2nd base, but he got greedy and tried steal third.

What a whacko.

And their pants and bras too!  He must be some kind of silver tongued beast, huh?  He'd have made a good snake oil salesman back in the goldrush days.

Ugh.

I'm so glad that you said that.  That's exactly the feeling I get when I see those guys wearing shirts like that - ugh.  That's creepily nasty.

 

I couldn't imagine letting someone who was coming DOOR TO DOOR in my houes let alone seeing my brests or genitals. wow

Neither could I, and I cannot for the life of me fathom what these women were thinking when they not only let him in, but disrobed for him too!

Yeah, but you were in uniform, were carring all kinds of equipment, were driving an AMBULANCE and were there at either the request of the patient or someone else.  And, you weren't alone.  When you showed up, so did either the fire or the police department, or sometimes both.  This dude just showed up.  Alone.  In a regular vehicle.

My mum would've told him where to go and then have take her broom to him to make sure he got there faster.

Hopefully none were underage

I think they were all in their 30's, whic makes it even worse.

I know.  Just when I think humanity has got as stupid as it's going to get...someone surprises me.  I'm amazed that some people make it through the day with harming themselves (or others).

 

Heck, I have a hard enough time getting to see a dr. when I make an appt and wait for an hour or so.

Exactly!  And, when was the last time you had a pelvic exam done on your own couch/bed?  Alarm bells should've been going off like crazy in these women's heads, and they weren't. 

I only hope those women, so lacking in brains, don't have children!

Oh yeah!  Lets hope they don't make a contribution to the gene pool...

Greed is an amazing thing, isn't it?  It trips people up all the time.

Yes, you do!  He must've got some serious talk going on in order to do what he did!

This proves P.T. Barnum was right, there is a sucker born every minute. Prop the word FREE in front of some people and they act without thinking.
