The Mass Media's Treatment of Patient Privacy
Most of the complaints center on how men are portrayed as patients in the health care system, often very disrespectfully. The media clearly play a role in this, though it's hard to be sure how much they cause vs. how much is a response to society's already formed attitudes.

Gender Preferences in Healthcare
What are they? Do men and women differ? This topic pervades the blog, but I'd like to consolidate it under one heading. This topic will concentrate solely on patient preferences and not with how they affect employment of health care workers like the prior thread.

Group Physicals
Do they humiliate young men? This topic includes school physicals and military induction physicals. There's been enough discussion of this to merit its own thread.
Some deleted comments are re-listed on Dec 16, 2008.

Add Your Personal Story of Privacy Violations
These can be violations of confidential information such as providers or employees talking to others about your medical findings or violations of procedures or examinations, such as examining room doors left open. Violations specifically covered under HIPAA of information transfers can be listed below or see link under HIPAA.
Stories which in my estimation are likely to be fictional will not be posted.
