Would you make that comment about people who frequent nude beaches?

The point (and the analogy with doctors) is that things we might peceive as "sexual" (seeing nude people, doing examinations of genitals, doing pat-downs that include the genital region) aren't really such and when people do those things on a regular basis, they don't see them as "sexual". You call that "desensitization", but I think it's more like realizing that it wasn't sexual in the first place.
