Sorry Streetie...

PN just hijacked your thread and proved that she is a bigger and a superior drama queen.

You need to now come out with your hoosband's specialty so that experts on SuCH can debate who is superior.

BTW, PN is in a big city...rather in a MerryLand unlike you slipping and sliding in once in a blue moon ice storm...

mainstreet wrote:Okay, the status among the medical field goes like this:

The surgeons are at the top!  The biggest egos and their wives can be the most stuck-up because their husband is a surgeon.  Even among the surgeons, there is a hierarchy.  The neurosurgeon gets the most respect.  Cardio thoracic surgeon is a close second.  Orthopedic surgeons are up there too but considered dumb jocks personality-wise.  The general surgeon is on the bottom of the surgeon totem pole.  Overall, these are the guys who do everything but know nothing.  Which means a decade of practice has made them good at surgery but they have forgotten most of the theory they had to memorize in med school.

Radiologists, anesthesiologists, OB.  Generally all three are solid when it comes to respect from other specialties.  Rad reimbursements have been cut big time, so some of that prestige has faded.  Anesthesiologists are being replaced by CRNAs who are cheaper and can bill, so again some of that demand and prestige has gone.  OBs are called bitches in general by every other specialty because it's mostly made up of control freak women.

EM.  Considered hyper because of all the emergency room triaging and crazy hours.

Among IM specialties, cardiologists and gastroenterologists are the top earners .  Oncology, especially rad onc is up there too.  Card and onc are going to see many reimbursement cuts.  Urologists make good money too.  Then endo, nephro, allergy, immunology, rheumatology.  Dermatology is mostly women who want work-life balance.  Infectious disease and geriatrics is bottom of the specialties.  Not much prestige.

Finally, the humble Internal Medicine (general adult) or Family Practice (general adult and kids over 12).  These are the guys who know everything (diagnosis) and do nothing (pass them along to a specialist unless it's a mere cold/flu).

Pediatricians: Same prestige thing.  The pediatric surgeons are on top.  The general pediatrician is at the bottom.

Psychiatrists: these are the quacks.  All they do is prescribe Ritalin or Aderall or anti-anxiety BS.  The diagnosis and therapy is done by the psychologists.

mainstreet wrote:I left out quite a few.  Pain and Rehab Medicine, Occupational Medicine, Sports Medicine, but these are the random guys whom you won't meet too often.  Sort of like Podiatry.  I have met one podiatrist in my life.

Neuro is non-competitive and those guys are extreme nerds like the rads, except radiology is hyper-competitive to get into.  Hem-onc kind of go together, cancers of the blood and organs.  Hospitalist is internal medicine but inpatient.  All the other surgeons are lumped between neuro/cardio/ortho and general.

Wouldn't you want to be sure he's not impotent or really bad in bed or gay.  Or does his being a physician make sexual comparability unimportant?

oh, don't kill the sweet innocence of a valentine's day proposal with all these gory details!  

well I shouldn't have brought up talk of taxes. I know of people who have gone into asystole from the tax axe.

anyhow. the rest of it isn't so bad. in his culture, they really like to move with the times and use the latest technology. one has to acknowledge the fact that regular sex is primitive, time-consuming, unclean, it uses up a lot of calories, can induce vertigo in certain positions, perhaps even cause a rib fracture if one hugs too tightly, damage the bed and the bedsheets. it can also get loud and boisterous and cause noise pollution. and well, ,after I met him I began to understand that it is far more sensual to just touch each other's extremities and go the ivf  way. I hope I can change your mind too, think about it. If your heart fxn is not good, you could have a heart attack and die during sex. I'm afraid most people don't realize what a precarious exercise it is.

what culture is he from?  is he a member of some new age cult? regarding other matters, if that's what you want and like, that's what you must do.

um, no, it's more like a "shake hand" or a "hand shake" but if you like you can kiss me on the dorsum of my distal right upper extremity.

you know, kings and princes do it all the times.

umm, if you don't know, maybe you can watch it on youtube and figure out how it's done.  cuz you probably don't know how it's done.

well if propa is not getting it when I offer him my hand to kiss and put ice on, then I'm just going to go back to  being single and spiritual.

"deforested," what are you a metrosexual? be a man,  if you can't handle a woman the way she is naturally, you certainly don't deserve a 69.

I am done with this thread.

I also just broke up with the pulmonology guy, cuz he's not at the top of the totem pole. a woman like me deserves an alpha male, the top dog, a tam bram or an Ashkenazi jew and not a hybrid of the two. thank you guys for helping me make another life-changing decision.

well, you sound like you don't want to give up your old ways. I've always noticed that about you - a bit on the adventurous side, given to taking risks, living on the edge, being too bold, enjoying the smell of danger! well for all of you who intend to have bonobo sex this valentine's day, as opposed to having sensual spidery extremity sex I recommend that you at least get  medical clearance prior to it.
