Bullshit. Doctor Who would never leave a patient during an operation to have sex. I'm not sure The Doctor ever has sex. Well maybe Tenant's clone but he wasn't really The Doctor at that point was he?
mushroommunk@lemmy.today · 35 pts · 340d
It's greatly implied during many of The Doctors that he has sex often.
SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one · 9 pts · 340d
I personally don't care for RTD and Moffat's fixation on crude/lewd humour and doing all the stupid shipteases personally. So, mileage varies greatly on that.
FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 24 pts · 340d
Well, he had a granddaughter somehow.

I thought they got put together like a tapestry?
That's why they have looms or something to knit them up.
mushroommunk@lemmy.today · 6 pts · 340d
I think that's been scrapped. The Looms came from the novels and stuff during the dark times between old and new who. Many many things from the new who seasons directly contradict there being Looms.

Could that be his daughter's daughter? In which case he wouldn't have had to have sex.
hatorade@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 339d
How did he get a daughter then?
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.one · 2 pts · 338d
It was a cloning machine accident.
ChairmanMeow@programming.dev · 2 pts · 339d
Technically one was cloned off him at some point. The actress who played her ended up marrying the Doctor though.

The nurse was allowed to practice, so really it was all mutually agreed upon
smeenz@lemmy.nz · 1 pts · 339d
Allowed to practise having sex with a patient, right?
JcbAzPx@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 338d
The very first Doctor had a granddaughter. So canonically he had to have had sex at least once.
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.one · 2 pts · 338d
Yeah, my comment about him possibly never having sex aged like milk. But he definitely wouldn't stop saving someone to do it!

Carighan@piefed.world · 37 pts · 340d
8 minutes? Disappointing. Hope the nurse found someone better.
Susaga@sh.itjust.works · 26 pts · 340d
That's why the doctor needs the practise.

He could've done it in 2 minutes if they'd just allow him to fuck inside the OR.

That poor nurse... With the removal of gloves, coats and other items, followed by the replacement of them, that leaves little time for her. This dudes a two pump chump.

Phrasing.

I swear it’s the personality type that chooses to work OR/ER. They’re super over confident, ADHD, adrenaline junky personality types that thrive in risky situations.

tanisnikana@lemmy.world · 37 pts · 340d
He felt the patient from the inside, turned to the nurse and said “I wanna fuck you like an animal.”

Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world · 37 pts · 339d
Look he's been travelling through time and space for thousands of years and spent billions of years dying repeatedly in a time loop, i don't think he gives a shit about some patient in surgery when there's a chance to get his end away.
SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works · 10 pts · 339d

A whole lot of you seem to prefer your narcissistic surgeon to operate on you while horny out of his mind. If he's got a boner to the point he can't concentrate, and I can be kept stable a few minutes, and he has a willing partner, be my guest.
aramis87@fedia.io · 47 pts · 340d
It was an anesthesiologist. And yeah, I'd much rather be kept sleep throughout the entire surgery, thanks.
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 48 pts · 340d
So that it's clear to everyone, anesthesiologists are usually the highest paid person on any surgical team, and there's a reason for that. Knocking you out without killing you is hard.
That said, the guy did leave someone else to monitor things, and wasn't gone for much more than a long bathroom break.
Coopr8@kbin.earth · 20 pts · 339d
Open secret of the surgery business is that the CRNAs (specialty anesthesia nurses) do all the actual anesthesia work, the Anesthesiologist's job is really to pick the anesthetic based on patient history and bloodwork, do the calculations for dosing based on body weight, and attend for interventions if something goes wrong. The Nurse he put in charge when he left was almost certainly already doing all the work anyway and he was just twiddling his thumbs with a hard on in the corner.

icelimit@lemmy.ml · 9 pts · 340d
I've also heard that it's like a pilot job, the hardest part being the beginning and the end. During routine surgeries, they have fuck all to do, so might as well fuck I guess? /Shrug

They also have more scrutiny and paperwork.

Do you really want to be operated on by someone who has an unyielding boner when youre lying there cut open on the table? If anything should be a boner killer I would think thats it

Leaving and finding a room.
Removing gloves and getting into position.
Doing the deed.
Scrubbing again and putting gloves back on.
Eight minutes
I'd take longer than that pooping in that situation.

Anyone but the anaesthetist. They are supposed to wait until after the operation, but the advantages they get to take their time.

That would have been better. The problem seems to have been leaving the operating room.
recklessengagement@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 340d
If the operation went well, I wouldn't care what my doc got up to during surgery. If it was really that much of a distraction and they can knock it out real quick I say go for it
psycho_driver@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 340d
Was operation successful? Whatever it takes, man.
viking@infosec.pub · 5 pts · 339d
Article says the patient was under general anesthesia and being monitored by the assistant anesthesiologist, the doctor was the main anesthesiologist, not the surgeon. So there wasn't really any risk.

The nurse will be thankful he's had more practice.
Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 340d
At least Doctor Who would've been able to go back in time and return with the nurse just after they left.
