    We did not video any of our births and I have no desire to watch them or any delivery on T.V. And I have no desire to watch births of other children.

    However, I loved being in the room and watching my girls born and I found nothing disgusting about it. It was a beautiful moment, or should I say 4 beautiful moments.     </font>[/QUOTE]Yup - been there six times myself and those are among the top ten moments of my life.

    Saying that, I love my wife and enjoy every aspect of our 28 year marriage, but these six events were not sexual events in any sense of the word.

    As I mentioned earlier, I wonder who REALLY has the "perverted mind" here?

    My OB/GYN is a good, Godly, Christian man. His wife is his nurse. When you go into the waiting room, there is a board with "I am fearfully and wonderfully made" on it, with pics of all the little babies he has delivered.

    I never considered an appointment with him to be inappropriate in any way.

    Roger, I think you have a point!

    It's amazing how I'm being called a pervert because I believe in decency and clothing and am against a woman disrobing in a doctor's office for a checkup. I think people are a little bit naive about the sinful world we live in.

    By the way, last Sunday night I preached on the subject "The Sin of Nakedness". Where I dealt with the subject that nudity before the opposite gender in general is wrong, not just improper thoughts. Ample Bible evidence is given in the sermon. The MP3 is on my website.

    Sincerely,

    And yet you feel justified in making this kind of charge?

    You are apparently the only one thinking about sex in the doctors office. I think you watch way too many movies.
    Men do not become doctors to look at naked women. If you haven't noticed, their are plently sourse that are much cheaper then medical school to look at naked women.
    At one time there were no women doctors, what would you have suggested to those women who lived then? Death instead of medical treatment.
    I don't know whose in your church, but they'd be better off going to a real church where they aren't told not to get medical treatment.

    Screaming makes some people feel more spiritual apparently. Of course that way they can't hear the twisted scripture.

    I took a listen to your message....goodness. That is a Springboard sermon if I ever heard one. Take a topic, go running after a few passages that say something about what you want to say and jump off into pulling texts completely out of context. You come off as what you have to say is way more important than what God has to say in His Word.

    God has given us so much to study and preach in His Holy Word....why do that? Take a text and preach what the text has to say.

    I am just dumbfounded by this thread. :confused:

    No disrespect, but have you ever been out of the United States? Things may be a little different now, but in at least a few African countries it is ok for women to walk around with nothing above the waist!(even in church) But if she were to show her knees that would be like a woman going topless here!

    In Russia male friends will kiss on the lips and it is nothing sexual. In Chinese cultures male friends may hold hands, but it only is a display of friendship. I'm sure the list could go on and on.

    Many things depend on the context of the culture.

    I submit that nudity before anyone not one's spouse is a sin. After all, nudity is never condoned in the Bible. Why do we justify a man disrobing before his doctor? It's possible that the doctor is secretly homosexual and went into medicine solely for the purpose of looking at naked men. The same can be said of women doctors. Therefore none of us should ever disrobe at a doctor's office, emergency room, or operating room. One should either marry a doctor, become a doctor to treat oneself, or patch oneself up as much as possible using duct tape and aspirin.

    Duct tapes not so bad. I do think we should make a run on duct tape stock before we let Petrel's advice out first!

    Colors are kind of cool these days too. [​IMG]

    Hopefully that poor man won't ever have to go in for surgery and Heaven-forbid have a female nurse insert a catheter and give him sponge baths.

    SBC,

    Did you listen to the message this guy preached on 'The Sin of Nakedness'?

    He goes from Nudity, to Drunkenness, and now, get this...

    He is telling people to let their youth smoke marijuana!!

    Pastor Steve, the statement of you being the one with the problem does not stem from your belief in decency or clothing or even being against a woman disrobing in a doctor's office.

    We here on the BB, all of us, believe in decency and dressing modestly, for both men and women, and we do believe that there is MUCH nakedness in this old world that is sinful.

    The statement of you being the one with the problem here stems from the fact that your article was full of vile accusations that aren't true.

    Brother Steve...you have been the vulgar party here...the offensive party.

    Please bear with me....I say this to you out of a desire to see you rethink your words and choose them more carefully, not to make you feel like we are ganging up on you.

    You made women feel horrible. You called our bodies "its". You said that our bodies were "pornographic" and "wicked things". You said that we "exposed" ourselves to our doctors. You said that women should just have babies like they did in the "old days", without help and without dignity and without medical attention. That is so demeaning for a woman to hear a man say.

    You made stereotypical remarks and unfounded accusations about men. Yes, men are visual creatures, but that doesn't make them unfit to be a woman's doctor. My doctor is not, as you put it, "adulterous" or "perverted" or "having an appetite for nakedness" or "in the ob/gyn profession to touch women's intimate parts".

    Trust me....we as women would know if they were.

    We do have issues with our male doctors, but it isn't about sexual inappropriateness, it only comes from them often times not having a point of reference to understand what we are talking about.

    That's all.

    I trust my doctor implicitly. I trust him with my body and my life. He is very respectful of me and he listens to everything I have to say. I wish that I cite specific examples of his competency and compassion, but obviously I can't. I cannot "wrap my brain" around this idea that he would ever treat me in an unprofessional manner or God forbid, a vulgar manner.

    The woman that you described in your article isn't me, nor is it any woman I know.

    And the doctor that you described in your article isn't my doctor.

    Please, please rethink your position on women and their doctors. Please pray about it.

    I have prayed for you.

    Peace-
    Scarlett O.
