Embarrassing Illnesses C4

[Mosaic]

Why is it that the people who come forward are too embarrassed to go to the doctor's, or to insist the doctor get it sorted properly, but don't mind 5 million viewers looking where the sun don't shine / mould has grown?

The private treatment is probably paid for.

[ummmm]

I would guess that they have been to the doctors, get sent away with pills and potions...go back...and repeat the process. Embarrassing bodies get it sorted..

It occurred to me, whilst watching it on Friday night - everybody that is showing their 'downstairs bits' have all been shaved, not a pubic hair in sight.......

[DTCwordfan]

rampant sex in the treatment room then - no pubies in the way.......

Imagine if you knew the person!
Would you say "Hey I saw you on TV last night" down the pub?
I agree with tigger, if you go on the programme, free private treatment is probably thrown in as well.
Re Pubic hair - you couldnt go on knowing 5 million would be watching with a big bush, surely!

[sandyRoe]

Is pubic baldness an embarrassing illness?

[DEN53]

Even when those Firemen where examining their 'bits' for testicular cancer, not one had any hairy bits.......

[DEN53]

jd - I wouldn't go on there with a big bush, a set of conifers or a large hedgerow.....

[jd_1984]

Tis true - although, you dont want the "last turkey in the shop" look either. Beard trimmer weekly does the job

[jd_1984]

I saw one of these shows and the guy went on because he thought his ...... was too small. Why the hell would you go on a show like that with that question? And get filmed? It might have been that joy of teenage sex show, something else I wish I had never watched!

[DTCwordfan]

everybody here will be goinmg for the shaved look, pinki.......agree though, one does look bigger and better for something too....(as it isn't past the watershed hour)

[Mosaic]

Lol Tigger......imagine if the deal was, get your bits out for the camera then wait three months for an appointment, have to explain it all again to someone who doesn't have your notes after sitting in a waiting room that is grimy, smells of wee and full of people with hacking coughs and no hankies......

[Mosaic]

and shurely shome mishtake.....it's not the shaving that's the issue - it's the growing back.......

[DTCwordfan]

depends on how often you shave, mosaic, and the natural texture of the hair.

[DTCwordfan]

he wanted to be on TV but in his case just an inch or two, certainly not decent 'footage'
