Dr. 90210

I like this show. I can't watch some portions of the actual procedures because it really makes my spine twitch. But, it is still fun to watch. I find Dr. Rey and his wife to be two of the douche baggiest people alive. She needs to quit giving women and wives a bad name by being such a "NAG". And, what is with Dr. Rey's suits, the way he flirts with his female patients and his tendency to have a slightly lingering hand when he is consulting with the patients in all their nude glory? I get that he has to touch them but, his touch seems to linger a little bit too long and he sometimes strokes their tummies and other areas in a less than clinical way. This is just my opinion. But, in watching the other doctors during their consultations, I don't see them wandering and lingering, nor do I see them flirting.

Beyond Dr. Rey, there was one episode, the likes of which I only finally got to see after catching up on most of my other favorite shows, that really bugged me.

The episode was titled "Freedom Riders" and one patient wanted a breast lift and, I think, reduction. She was slightly overweight, IMO, and at the age of 25, had a rather severe case of sagging breasts. She had two reasons that she gave for wanting a breast lift. She rides horses and was experiencing pain while riding due to her girls bouncing up and down and all around while she rode her horse. So, as a result, she had to cut back on her horse riding and, that was not a part of her life that she was willing to sacrifice. Perfectly understandable. Then, she had a second reason. She, her family and her friends like to go to Lake Havasu and enjoy the sun and fun. She didn't feel comfortable in her bikini top at Lake Havasu but, more importantly, she always wanted to join in the fun with her girlfriends as they all go topless while wearing Pasties at the Lake. It has always been something that she wanted to do. And, because of the size of her ladies, and the way that they sagged, she never felt comfortable wearing pasties on the lake. So, what better reason than the desire to wear pasties on a lake can one woman ask for to talk herself into getting a breast lift? None that I can think of...cough cough.

So, she had the surgery and, about 6 days later, she had the bandages removed in front of a live studio audience of her Mother and her Father. That's right folks, her bare breasts were first viewed by Dr. Rey, the patient and her mommy and daddy. WTF? I'll give her having her mom in the room. Her mom has the same parts. But, why did her dad need to see his daughters uncovered knockers? What? Gross!

Then, somewhere around a month or two later, they did another post-op interview with her on a boat on Lake Havasu with her friends, parents and her Uncle. Her Uncle then kissed her inappropriately on the lips and asked when the wet t-shirt contest would begin? Or, something to that effect. I was so stunned that all I really remember was the pervy reference to a wet t-shirt contest, while looking longingly at his Niece.

BTW...mission accomplished. On that boat trip on Lake Havasu, she was wearing pasties under her bikini top. She said she was only wearing her bikini top because her scars had not completely healed from her operation and exposing her healing scars to the sun was unhealthy.

And, as of that final interview, she was unable to ride her horses, yet, due to required healing time. Well, at least she could wear her pasties.
