on spec

so my speculum shirt arrived today. i came across it online last week, actually in the course of my regular workday, when i was searching google for a brand name of a certain vaginal speculum a gynecologic surgeon mentioned in a dictation. and by chance in my search i came across this shirt, and on impulse i got me one. sometimes i do that, those impulse buys, and i probably shouldn't. but i like tee shirts, don't i? and i'm interested in surgical equipment, aren't i? well, it arrived today and now i'm a little skeptical about the whole thing. is it in bad taste or somehow awful to have a speculum on a tee shirt? opinions?

and i have to say that i still question male gynecologists, a little bit. it seems like a creepy thing for a man to do. were i a woman, i totally would never go to a male ob/gyn.

i'm going to the mall tomorrow, because i'm going to get the oil changed in my hyundai at the sears that's attached to the mall, and i think i'll wear the shirt. i wonder if i'll get looks or questions, or if anyone will notice. it's just the mall, just mall people, right, so who cares?

odd. offensive? no...but, the thought it gives. imagine, say, coming across someone with a dentist's drill on a shirt. depending on how your last visit went... :)

Ummm...would guys know what the instrument was for just by looking at it? Most women would just think you're a pig.
