AT << I can see professionalism but how can she be honest about some of the answers? Men react differently to some things, like hey bud you need to stick this thing up your pecker well, I dont think a woman can know the feeling. >> PA- LEEEEZE... Give me a break...women have been going to male obgyn's since time began...and trusting them. We trust them about giving childbirth, about mamograms, about all those wonderful intrusive tests...How the heck do they know anything about those? Are you saying men won't trust a woman's information on MUSE? Do you really think any female Vivus hires to pr this product is gonna say "hey bud, you need to stick this thing up your pecker"? Come On AT..your a bright man..and you ARE a man..who do you want showing you the delicate procedure of inserting a gel pellet in your "most prized possesion", a man or a female? Most men are "terrified" of a prostate exam...of course they are gonna "cry to mama" about MUSE. Getoverit! It is a small sacrifice to keep life rich and fullfilling. We do what we must do, and men need to grow up and do what men must do using the safest means possible (ie MUSE), regardless of who is presenting the package, be they male or a female. (besides, the "she" is only giving info to the docs, not the patients. How are the patients gonna know who presented the product?) Sorry AT, you are a smart gentleman but this doubt based on who is presenting the product just doesn't make sense. Bradpalm gave us a great run down on the Vivus Consultant and you pick out the "she" and nothing else. Find the positive and run with it..forget the "she". Regards... E'Lane (go ahead..I'm prepared for it...)
