One of my favorite parts of the temperature taking process.

Hi members,

for me, one of my favorite parts of the rectal temperature taking process was having my buttocks spread. Most times I was on my stomach when my nurse or my mother was about to take my temperature. My underpants would already be pulled down to my knees. The thermometer already was shaken down and lubricated. Then I would feel the palm of her left hand on my bottom.

Four fingers would push down on my upper buttock and her thumb would press down on the lower buttock. With one smooth motion, she would spread them wide. I would feel cool air kiss my now exposed anus- it would tingle, especially if I was running a high fever- then all senses were heightened. There was always a pause as Mom or the nurse eyed her target. Then the bulb would hit the very center and slide easily up my rectum.

Members, what was your favorite part of the process?

I never had a favorite part of a rectal temperature taking. When my was getting ready to take my temperature, she would always had the thermometer prepared and she would come into the living room and sat down on the sofa. My dad was always at work 98% of the time. I would drop my pants and just lay over my mom's lap.

Then I will just feel the cold rod being inserted into me and she would keep one hand on my lower back to be sure I stay relaxed and hold the thermometer in place with her other hand. I was a toddler during those days.

Now if I was really sick and took myself to the doctor and the nurse suggested rectal, it will not be a problem. I would just lay on my tummy on the exam table and let her take it but, the only people who can be in the exam room is me and the nurse.

I kind of compare it to eating a piece of cake...you enjoy the icing, filling, and cake separately, but the entire experience brings pleasure to all of the senses. To me, just the anticipation of having your temp taken rectally, contributes to 90% of the experience. This also has to do with the person taking your temp. That can vary in quality too.

I wish I could say that I had a favorite, but I hated it all at the time!

My favorite part is when ur sitting on the exam table with only ur underwear and the nurse or doc tells u to lay on ur stomach and lower or remove ur underwear all together....then u spread ur legs apart but not too much...and they insert the butt thermometer.....but only in my dreams hahaha

As a child, the entire procedure was humiliating for me, but I still had a “favorite part,” and it’s likely why I have this not-so-popular odd medical fetish.

Laying on my stomach with the side of my face smashed onto the crinkly white exam table paper with my pants and underwear to my knees, I would sometimes get to watch the nurse prep the thermometer if the prep area was within my view. She would withdraw it from is alcohol filled holder, give it a wipe with a tissue, and snap it with her wrists like a lion tamer’s whip. She would then squeeze out a cold dollop of lube onto the thermometer’s tip from a white squeeze bottle that was similar to a ketchup and mustard bottle except for the color. Getting to see that was like being in line for a scary ride at the fair carnival, and knowing you were next to be loaded!

My next “favorite part” came immediately after my RT. It was having to sit on the edge of the exam table while waiting with my tender bits exposed as instructed by the nurse for the Doctor to eventually come in and examine them. There was no modesty covering of anything. I would have to sit there with the door half open with my pants and underwear to my knees for 15-30 minutes of agonized waiting, but my most “favorite part” was the thermometer prep by a nurse I had never likely met before.

No memories of childhood RT’s so all mine have been done during Playing Doctor with girlfriends.

First time I got one was the day after I first took someone’s rectal temp, my former girlfriend who was extremely anal erotic. My favorite moment then and now, well actually each step of the procedure is very exciting. But the moment that makes my blood boil and skin tingle is when she spreads my cheeks open, exposing my anus.

When I’m playing the doctor role, it’s also my favorite part.
