well as much as i appreciate your view and desire  @ poster if i were to be your husband, i would be wary about why you are so insistent on avoiding my brother.

all this talk of gbogbo aso ko la saa lorun only goes to show you have something to hide, something which you do not want me your husband to find out.

we all know that if it were to be a case of "because he will examine my body", the its not tenable. the stranger whom you wanna go meet is not going to touch your body?
or his touch is different from my brother?

the bro is a medical doctor, your own itty bitty parts cannot be the first he has seen neither will they be the last. neither will your arcane medical condition be the worst. you fail to give doctors credit, they know a lot more than they show about lots of pple. even the female docs don't even run their mouth so much. spare the bull

unless of course, he has been making advances at you, which would be anor reason you are trying to avoid him without hubby's knowledge.


personally i think you simply do not want your skeletons to be exposed, either way.


its your problem though. but word of advice, next time you want to avoid that type of scenario, you build it up. u create a backdrop for it before the need to go there arises e.g.

how you dont wanna go there because u don't want to be a parasite, free treatment bla bla bla
how doctor so and so is sooo good, and handles your medical issues superbly, he know you treatment  blablabla
how the other hospital is much more convenient, and profitable for u to use etc.

so that when u express the desire to go to anor place, there is a background for it

if there was a serious emergency and your hubby's bro is the only doctor around to treat you, even if it warrants inserting all 10 fingers into the inbox, would you decline?

shame sha, that you are playing dangerous games

There is definitely a skeleton hidden somewhere in the cupboard. You are afraid your husband might know the remnants of the extra-marital affairs. I can't understand why you are uncomfortable getting treated by a brother-inlaw. Your husband mean well my dear.
Gosh are people really this idiotic?

WTF is wrong with people? The woman doesn't want to bare all to her husband's brother, so that automatically means she's got something to hide??!!

Kai! The way some people jump to conclusions is astonishing.

There's nothing wrong with the OP's question and I believe some posters are taking her out of context. There is a possibility that some ladies will find it awkward undressing in front of their BIL, other husband's family members or even friends, this does not mean they have something to hide but just because they are uncomfortable with it!

Thank you ooo. I don't see what's difficult to understand in her thread or why some people are deliberately being offensive in the name of it's a public forum.

@ Iranoladun

I feel you and I wouldn't want a close relative like a BIL having access to my medical information, history or records. Some in laws just like to get all up in your buisness, and once they know your business it becomes public knowledge where the entire family is aware of what does not concern them.

Let your husband know in very clear terms that you are uncomfortable and you don't want to deal with your BIL in the future. If you weren't going there before you got married I don't see why you must go there now, after all your company has put you on some medical scheme with a hospital so take advantage of it as an employee

Unless you have something to hide, i really do not see anything wrong in your BIL examining you, what if you were pregnant and he had to touch and feel the 'inside'. Moreover, is he the only doctor in that hospital, there might be other doctors that can assist you, you know!!!

in my experience, seeing a medical doctor is like bearing your soul to a priest/pastor.
you have to be as comfortable as you can be under the circumstances. so i totally agree that OP not seeing her BIL if she doesn't feel comfy about it.

mind you she doesn't even need to have a reason or skeletons in her c/board. it's just her preference as long as the problem is not life threatening and her BIL happens to be the only doctor who can help.

Well if the reasons were stated it will much easier for your proposed slow-poke individuals like us smiley smiley

But we are created of no equals you know.

Even if she had a severe head-ache, she can't also be treated by the Bi? And she can also ask for another doctor in dsame hospital instead of outrightly refusing her husband to leave room for some suspicion.This is a very sensitive issue which can be the other-way round because she never stated her reasons.

even if the problem is life threatening, she shouldn't see her bro-in-law.
matter of fact, the more the severity of her illness, the further away she should be from her brother-in-law.

unless the ailment is acne, boil or malaria - no woman should be seeing her brother in law for anything that would involve stripping.
our people are gossip mongers and i wouldn't trust any nigerian doctor to respect the ethics of his profession. if he doesn't, who would sue him?

That is why we are different as humanbeings, what i can accommodate, another wouldn't. For me personally, if i do not personally have anything to hide from my hubby or anyone, then i DO NOT SEE ANYTHIONG WRONG IN IT.

Duuuuuuude! Doncha mean common sense defense??!! cheesy cheesy

And even if it's a toe nail she needs filed, she still has a right to refuse getting treatment from her brother in law.  EVERYONE OF US have that right, it is after all our body!!

Even doctor's children are allowed privacy when it comes to medical treatment.

the only benefit she can enjoy is the medical fees and she works for a company doing that for her free of charge already.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEEPS

What if it involves opening her legs for the BIL to examine her illness?
My brother is a consultant in one of teaching hospitals and unless during emergency cases he NEVER touches my wife. My wife gets all the care and attention she needs when she’s been referred to his colleagues in that hospital.

Whatever happens to morals and respect for brother’s wife.
