I caught your show the other night,” my gynecologist said from between
my legs as he cranked open the speculum.
I kept my eyes glued to the ceiling tile above me, which had an
informative list of the symptoms of herpes. Casual reading, I assumed. “At
the Comedy Loft?”
I lowered my gaze when Dr. Nicholas Allen’s head popped up above the
sheet draped across my knees. “That’s the one. You know, I loved your set
on being bisexual and how that meant twice the rejection instead of twice
the dates. My wife and I laughed and laughed. Really great stuff.”
I gave him a tight-lipped grin and bob of my head. “Thanks. Always
nice to meet a fan. It’s pansexual, by the way.”
“Of course. Right. So, how’d you come up with your stage name?” he
asked.
“It’s a play on my name. Tori Miles, Mila Torres.” I didn’t usually
answer questions like that, but since he was inside me… “With my day job,
it’s easier to have some distance between that and my comedy.”
“Makes total sense. You know what you should add to your next set?” I
could feel the giant cotton swab making crampy friends with my cervix as
he chatted away like he wasn’t basically breathing into my bearded clam.
“Vagina jokes. I’ve got tons of them.”
Definitely something I wanted to hear from my gynecologist.
“For example,” he continued. “Did you know that in older literature, the
labia are referred to as meat curtains? Or the wooly beaver. Or a pink taco.
Honestly, there’s so much material there you could write a whole set on it.”
“I think vaginas already have a monopoly on monologues,” I replied.
He snorted and I swear to God I felt a spray. “That’s clever. See, Mila?
You’re a great comedian!”
I hadn’t asked for his validation, but this wasn’t an uncommon
conversation with the male species these days.
“You can go ahead and sit up now,” he said after another minute. “All
finished.”
I shimmied my butt farther back onto the table and closed my legs. “All
look good down there?”
“The nurse will call you if the results come back as abnormal, but I’m
sure you’re fine. It would be good to start thinking about your reproductive
future though.” He was pulling his gloves off with a snap and depositing
them in a red biohazard box. “At thirty-four, you’re considered almost an
advanced age for pregnancy, and every year that goes by, your eggs will
continue to degrade. Freezing them now could give you more options in the
future for having children later in life. Have you considered having a
family?”
“You know, strangely, no one has ever asked me when I’m going to
settle down and have kids,” I replied, tapping a finger to my chin to
highlight the sarcasm dripping from my words.
But my sarcasm went directly past Dr. Allen. “Really? Well, you’re
lucky. Most women are hounded about that kind of thing. I’ll give you a
few pamphlets on fertility specialists that we work with often. Great people.
Give them a call and get a consultation if you’re interested.
