That's your opinion, here's mine: I found it sort of funny, plus it actually raises an interesting point (definitely not useless, plus bonus points for such humor btw): I always wonder how gynaecologists, urologists, ... mentally deal with this exact aspect. For instance: what is sex in the evening like if you've seen x different genitals during the day? How easy is it to separate that? Or is there no separation perhaps?

I'd be surprised if more than 1% of people could get an erection in a urologist's office (unless their visit is due to priapism). You're likely visiting due to a painful or embarrassing problem with your equipment.

In this case I was actually wondering about the urologist, not the patients themselves. The latter is a situation I've been in myself so it's easier to relate to and reason about.

Different context. There's not a sexual dimension to it at all.

that's the ideal professional.

there are plenty of stories of sub-ideal professionals.[0]

Honest question: do you have such job yourself? Or do you intimately know multiple people who do? Or does this come from research? Because if not, that would just sound like how you'd want it to be. Not necessarily what it is like in reality.

But in any case: yes, I know it's a different context, but that's not the question. Rather: is it realy that easy to just separate context 100%, and at will?
