Please, and I ask you respectfully and politely, do not tell me how I should and shouldn't feel: "You shouldn't feel violated." I'm not insisting that you should feel violated. I realize that not all women perceive this procedure to be invasive, and that is fine, but invalidating others' feelings is not constructive.
Though the exam may have a greater purpose in spite of the unpleasantries, it still doesn't change the fact that some women are experiencing what they perceive to be invasiveness of their sexuality. Perhaps they were sexually abused -- even by a doctor. To them, the end justifying the means is highly questionable because the exam is causing as much or more damage as the disease itself.
