There are doctors and other professionals too that have to perform in this area of discomfort to the recepient everyday. They treat it like it is without any stigma attached to it.
What you're describing is more analogous to objecting to a rough, improper examination by a paramedic and then being threatened with "Do you want a ride to the hospital today?" And then having your doctor tell you afterward that the man who had been posing as a paramedic was actually a cab driver who once saw an episode of ER.
