That's like asking if a pedophile should become an elementary school teacher.

>>1293 Maiesiophilia isn't a crime however. Pedophila is. Unless, you're insinuating anyone with a fetish for pregnancy is more likely to resort to crimes against pregnant women.

>>1292 You might want to seriously consider this, anon. We had a woman here with a birth fetish who, after giving birth, found her fetish had completely gone away. I really think that's going to happen to you. Medical science is not easy and ob/gyn is already looking to become less of a male field of medicine because of what you're suggesting. Ie, that the doctors can't be professional and merely want an excuse to see women down there. If you ever looked too interested even for a second, or god forbid did anything inappropriate, life's over. Not to mention you are hurting someone by abusing their trust that you're only there to treat them medically. That's not a game. Don't do it with a cop out of "but it's not a crime." If you just have an appreciation for the pregnant female form, just get a job as a retail worker at a store that's near a maternity wear store, or a "baby supply" store. You will guaranteed see pregnant women and at most they just might catch you glancing at them a little longer. You're unlikely to get called out or anything else because they already expect people to be curious about them being pregnant. And, yes, looking at a pregnant woman is not a crime. But building a relationship with a pregnant woman that's supposed to be professional is a betrayal of obligation and could open you up to being sued and losing your medical license, which you will need to work very hard to get. tl;dr don't base your profession around your fetish. Your fetish is going to become boring and die. Or you'll still have the fetish, and you're going to want to indulge it, and that's bad in many different ways. Go "people watch" around retail stores that cater to pregnant women, if you simply must see random women on the street pregnant and walking around and artwork and video/photos won't do.

Thank you for your concern. I'm glad to receive a response more than a comparison to pedophilia. I've been think about what you said, despite my stubborn ideology and stance on "It's my life and I'll do with it how I see fit." My self control has kept me out of trouble, but I know it's imperative I use it to the best of my ability. Despite my admiration for pregnancy for years, I do fear that a profession revolving around pregnancy may give my libido "burn out." I've encountered returning pregnant customers and even worked with a pregnant coworker. Though, I would consider the attention I've given them fair. I'm shy and an introvert. No one in my life knows I have this fetish. I agree. Suffice to say, men have given men a bad name. Assumptions and labels from my fellow man would only serve against me. A career would be a long time for any illusionary semblance of sexual harassment to occur. My thoughts would be dedicated to their needs. I'm wouldn't hurt anyone. The reoccurring customer would order off the menu with me and I would make it for her. I then purchased an expensive item off of my pregnant coworkers baby shower wish list. In return I got conversations and thanks. That has always been enough for me. Yet, thoughts promiscuous in nature would wander in my mind. Ideas confined to my subconscious in the days gone and eons to come. Still I see what you mean. What they don’t know won’t hurt them but instead will decay me. “So a man thinkith” is very true. Ultimately, I think i would prefer a wife who is a surrogate as a career, but I'm sure that's a pipe dream. Ultimately, having a "partner" who loves pregnancy as much as I do is the easiest route. I don't gamble and it is a dangerous world out there.

>>1349 Please consider also that it's different for the medical field, anon. If you work at a shoe store because you have a fetish for feet, for example, then that's not a big deal. You're not forcing any particular woman into the store. You don't need to do more than ring up her items. Your role in her life is minimal to non-existent. If you become a podiatrist because you have a foot fetish, that's different. Doctors are supposed to be more than impersonal. They're supposed to be trustworthy on an intimate scale to be professional. Even if you don't do anything, you might be tempted to suggest a woman come back for another appointment she doesn't technically need just to see her again. There's 'physical' harm, but there's also 'emotional' harm. A wife who becomes a surrogate might be more possible than you'd think. Most 'hiring' sites insist the woman have experience carrying one pregnancy to term and be a responsible family raising their child, but those are for pay. There's also family members who might want their sister/whatever to carry for them. Close friends, etc. But, yes, unless the woman has her own pregnancy fetish she likely won't understand or want to do that. You're at a point in your life you've discovered "I have to do something with my life and have a career," so it's understandable you not know what to do. But not everything lasts forever and if you're really in a spot you can handle medical school, you sound like you could do anything. Rethink your criteria. But that's also a lot of pressure, too. Don't worry about a career and just think more in terms of "what would be a good job?" A lot of people finish medical school and decide they hate it. So they quit and do something else. Their lives turn out fine. Don't feel there's a time limit and so you must jump on a kink-oriented career.

Medical school is hard and competitive, Good luck anon. Visiting a relative who gave birth (I’m female ftr), I wondered if any male obgyn docs had the same fetish as me. I can tell you though, that out of the two male obgyn docs I met, one was totally indifferent and seemed like he was 100% treating a medical issue, the second one gave off kindly buddhist monk vibes and 100% just focused on caring for the sick moms. He gave such respectful and professional support to my relative, it was astounding. Basically you would be competing against really smart people who actually want to help in this area.

Btw, the floor nurses are way more involved with supporting the moms through labor, and taking care of the moms post-partum. Maybe look into that? There are nursing shortages everywhere. Or maybe an ultrasound technician. You would see pregnant women all the time and touch their bellies with a probe, which seems nice. The doctors are actually more involved in monitoring the health of mom and baby, and intervening in medical emergencies. They have to jump from patient to patient very urgently, especially when there are multiple births happening on the same day. They usually don’t have time to stay for the whole thing, just at the end to catch the baby. They also perform c-section surgeries when needed, which from a fetish standpoint is just boring af.

Would not recommend spending years of your life and hundreds of thousands of dollars to slightly increase your exposure to bellies and massively increase your exposure to patients coming in because they've got something fucked up going on down below. I'm not a dr, but did work at an office that had an ob/gyn. Not a fun time.

>>1697 Lmao! Hilarious take because it’s so true. The gyn part of obgyn is so gross, you would be dealing with sick vaginas all the time. More so if you work at a specialty center, maybe less if you work at a community hospital.
