The fact that pre-matital exams are “…not very common outside of Utah” should be the first clue that something is seriously wrong with this idea. Utah has extremely paternalistic views on women’s health care, and it’s adversely affecting woman’s health.
Recently I heard a woman from St. Mark’s Hospital lament the low percent of woman receiving mammograms in Utah–a hospital that routinely employs male nurses and assistants for gynecological procedure. Duh! Treat woman with dignity and respect and more woman will get care–that means: no unnecessary exams, no unnecessary exposure (there is no reason to have males assist during intimate procedures when 90% of all nurses are female), and stop trying to convince woman that a healthcare person knows more about their body than they do.

No one needs this medical examination.
It is yet another attempt to exploit women sexually by (mainly) male doctors or female doctors under the control of men.
It is as bad as doctors using vibrators, which they invented, to stick up women for “hysteria”. If anyone does not know what I’m on about please read “Waking Sleeping Beauty” by Carolyn Herbst Lewis. If this does not frighten you away from doctors of the vagina, nothing will.
In some countries they try to make compulsory examinations of women’s vaginas a prerequisite to being given a driving license. But men passing a driving test don’t have their penis “examined” by a doctor.
As usual, sexual power over women is the motivation here.

Please resist this evil. No one getting married needs it. And what if you fail the medical. Do you cancel your marriage?…
