I didn't vote because there was no option for me: No preference, as long as the doc knows what he/she is doing, then I don't really care.
I have seen both male and females, and in the US at least... if the man is doing an exam, there is always a female nurse present (mostly as a form of insurance in case someone accuses the man of doing something wrong, etc). So I guess I have never really felt like it makes a difference.
My very first gyno exam was by a male, however... when I was 18 and very much a virgin (had not even masturbated)--so that was a little bit stressful, but more because of it being my "first time" than because the doc was a male.
