A Few More Quotes...

It's been awhile since I've posted some ridiculous quotes from our class, but a few have happened this week that I want to web-log before I forget....

Spoken during Sex Week in a class entitled Transgendered Patients:
"So you're saying that any man who walks into my clinic with a pink shirt on should be assumed to be a transgender?"
-my roommate
(why did everyone look at me?)

89 year old professor:
"When you suspect this high aldosterone in your patient, go ahead, take the measurement, call up 1-800-Aldosterone, go on with your life for six months, your uncle gets divorced, you forget about your patient, then suddenly one day you get your lab results back."

Said by a homosexual scientist during a video (made in the 70s) shown in our class:
"Do not dare... don't you DARE assume that mankind was made in such a way that biologically or biochemically, we are intended to be mated as a man with a woman. This is ludicrous."
-Hmmm. Interesting. Yes, point well made. Seeing as how in fact we are biologically made with anatomy that would suggest so and biochemically are structured with different biochemicals that would also suggest so.

A professor was trying to make the point that breasts are nothing more than glorified sweat glands. He unsuspectingly singled out one of the two gay men in the classroom and shouted,
"YOU! What do you think about breasts!?!"
He was met with one red face and 149 hysterially laughing ones. I'm fairly certain he was the only one who didn't get the joke. So sad to see the funny ones sink their own ships.
