Her reply, with a completely straight face was 'you need to look a bit lower'. I was only trying to put it in her clitoris!!!

My friend was doing a VE and told her mentor that she couldn't define position. Her mentor very calmly told her that it was because she was examining the poor womans anus!

Who ever decides that we are fit to be let loose on the public?
