Printed on back cover (a): "Sex // counseling // in family // practice // ROCHE ® // Sex counseling in family practice should // be a free exchange of ideas between // doctor and patient. How successfully this // can be accomplished depends primarily // on the physician's knowledge and patient // rapport. The following dialogue extracted // from this recording illustrates a not un- // common situation in the medical practice // of today. // As a doctor, I have several problems where // sex is concerned, first of all, I am a man // and people expect me to know about sex. // Well don't men know all about sex? // Well, you see that's just the thing, men // talk about sex, and they tell dirty jokes and // they brag, but when it comes to really // knowing about sex and knowing about // sexual feelings and sex reactions, they are // at a distinct disadvantage because they // don't know about this. // Well if you don't know, why can't you ask? // Well I can't ask, because if I ask it means // I don't know, and if I don't know, it means // I am not a man. // That's an awful bind to be in, and our so- // ciety says to be a man you have to know all // about sex, so you couldn't admit it by // asking a question. // And well I've got another problem, I'm a // doctor. // That's a problem? // Sure that's a problem. You see everybody // expects me to be the world's greatest // expert, and really where do you think I // picked it up. When the other guys were at // college, they were at least getting sexual // experience when I had my head in my // books and my face in Gray's anatomy, and // you don't get much sex that way. // Well didn't they teach you about it at medi- // cal school? // I guess the urologist did, every time we // came to a genital area there was always // the urologist around with a dirty joke, // so I got the impression that sex was dirty. // That's all I heard at medical school. // So that didn't make you any more comfort- // able when talking about sex with patients. // No, now you see the problem I've got right // now. // Well, I can see where it would make you un- // comfortable. What could we do to im- // prove the comfort level of the physician so // he could then talk to the patients about // their problem? // Published as a service // to the medical profession by // Hoffmann-La Roche Limited // Vaudreuilm, Quebec // ® Reg.
