Maybe he didn’t any experience watching women have orgasms when he was “down there”.

LOL!!! — I can see why it made him uncomfortable, esp. if he’s used to women screaming and thrashing about, or medicated so they can’t feel anything, or being yelled at, with knees pushed to their ears to PUUUUUSSSSHHHHH!!!!! Too bad he couldn’t just avert his eyes, if seeing a happy woman made him nervous.
But this emphasizes, in a unique way, one other thing — when the mother is in a physiological normal position, the eyes of the doctor are drawn to her face, rather than her vagina — to her *person* rather than *one* body part.
Way to go, to the woman who submitted this! Hope you ignored this guy!

That’s an awesome point. The birthing mother is not just an exit portal for the baby.

That’s an excellent point, thank you!
And, kudos to the mom who gave birth in this position in spite of her doc! (And maybe even educating him a bit, who knows!)
