Ask Ann Landers
Why must women

pick on doctors?

DEAR ANN LANDERS: oly husband is a physician, 52
years of age, pleasant looking butnot handsome. He is a gentle
soul and E can understand why he inspires confidence and trust,
But what astonishes me is the number of women patients wha
have come right cut and propositioned him.

Within the last six months there were three. One wasa .

beautiful young widow who felt the doctor should provide her
with sex as a form of therapy. She expected to be billed, of
course, Since these house calls would be considered treatment
for her nerves.

Another was a married woman whose husband was
important (she said), The third was a 16-year-old sexpot who
belleved her first sex experience should be with an older man
who “knows what he is doing.’”

I've talked with wives of other physicians and they tell me
their husbands get the same offers, In. the past you have
published letters from women who complained about physicians

making indecent-. “proposals. in.the offices: Fexcmove.feequently....
the proposals come from the “patients.*' hope you will print
my. letter-and give-the reading public a more accurate picture |

of what goes on, —M.D.'S WIFE
DEAR WIFE: Solongas there are: women in the world, men
will get propositions, Physicians are likely tobe propositioned
’ more often than piano tuners, for example, because the doctor-
patient relationship is an intimate and confidential one, Also,
women have a tendency to idolize their doctors, In my opinicn,

physicians are neither better behaved nor worse behaved than

other husbands.- They just get propositioned more.

. ’o* *

DEAR ANN LANDERS: Wire your reply collect. We need
to know the answer at once, Our daughter is being married
next month Her boss” wife sent a gift which some of us know
was purchased at a rummage sale, Iam not being critical, Ann,.
these are the facts. rhe enclosed card read, “Best wishes
from Mr, and Mrs, X,’

Two days later a magnificent gift arrived. The enclosed

card sald, “With warm wishes to you and your beloved. Mr. :
All gifts are being displayed onthe dining room table. Our ,

future son-in-law’s parents feel our daughter should return the
boss’ gift with a note saying his wife had already sent a gift”
from them both, Our daughter is bewildered and doesn't know
what todo. MyhusbandandIfeel it would be rude to return his
gift, We have agreed to let you decide. —STALEMATED
DEAR MATED: It would be an insult to return the boss’

gift. He.was probably unhappy when his wife told him what
she had sent and decided to do something about it,

_ Display both gifts, side by side, but remove the card trom
Mrs, X, Separate gifts from a man and his wife would cause
unnecessary comments.
