That’s the test which gives every doctor license to jam his finger up your butt. It may be the best way but it’s not pleasant. Unless you’re the type that enjoys having things inserted up your butt and you know who you are.
Don't knock it if you haven't tried it,

“It may be the best way but it’s not pleasant.”
It is not nearly as unpleasant as being told you have cancer that has spread out of control. I try to keep that in mind when I go for my yearly exam.
What's wrong with you? "License" ... like they enjoy doing it? How else are they going to feel the prostrate?
What does "pleasant" have to do with anything? Women get the speculum and pap smears every year. Plus the boob mash getting mammograms. No one likes it but it's necessary.
I'm pretty sure the doctors are even less thrilled with the procedure than the patients.
After getting a DRE I commented to the dr that I couldn’t understand how anyone could like that. He responded that he had had to tell a few patients that he would no longer see them because they were enjoying the exam too much. Ick.
