Dailey Bailey: The Seven Reasons Why Men Avoid Going to the Doctor

Men don’t like going to the doctor. And that’s fine, because pulsating, oozing growths usually go away on their own.

A new survey found men are about 33% less likely than women to go to the doctor on a regular basis.

Here are the seven reasons why men say they avoid the doctor . . .

1. I’m too busy, 24%.

2. I’m afraid of what might be wrong, 22%.

3. I don’t like uncomfortable body exams, 19%. (Oh come on. The sound of that rubber glove snapping behind me brings a smile to my face.)

4. I don’t like being weighed, 12%.

5. I don’t like being naked under the gown, 8%.

6. I don’t want to answer personal questions from the doctor, 7%.

7. It’s too cold in the doctor’s office, 4%.
