Throughout my youth and early adolescence I was never given a choice of injection site. On visits to the doctor it was always "pull down your pants and bend over" and on house calls it was "roll over". I hated getting injections in my bottom because I deemed it childish and thought getting shots in the arm to be a rite of passage.
When I went for an inoculation a few days after my slightly older girlfriend got hers in the arm, I nervously asked the receptionist while waiting, "The are given in the arm, aren't they?" She somewhat worried me with the reply, "I think they can be", and then frightened me by saying that a boy of exactly my age got his "right back here" (pointing to her own buttock). I only later realised that he had asked for it in the bottom - something I could hardly imagine.
Sometime later I requested a shot in the arm but the nurse insisted on giving it to me in the buttock, by which time I was mature enough to appreciate the eroticism of being injected back there by a beautiful girl. The next time I went to her for an injection she asked where I wanted it and I surprised us both by requesting it in my bottom. Since then I have taken all injections in my buttocks. Although I have never again been asked where I wanted a shot in so many words, nurses sometimes recommend them there with such phrases as, "Would you like this in your bottom?", "I can inject your bottom if you like," "It will hurt less where you sit," etc. One nurse, who always gave shots in the buttocks, told me that she never asked patients where they want them because pre-injection nerves are only exacerbated by by asking patients to make a decision about the site.
Does anyone else request injections in the bottom when given a choice? What about nurses? Do you ever ask patients where they want their shots and do you at least recommend them back there?
