Life would be boring if we were all the same. I guess with time and repetition all the bits of jobs that lay people find disgusting become normal to the professionals. 
Interestingly I can check my daughters teeth no problem without gloves but others including my wife and neice and nephew I find it uncomfortable without gloves if we're at home etc.
Funnily enough though a complete strangers kid who'd got hit in the face in the park got fully checked out no gloves etc and I didn't bat an eyelid.

My childhood dentist didn't wear gloves and I am pretty certain he didn't wash his hands between examining me and my brothers either  Sick

I can't quite imagine lining patients up for digital rectal examinations without gloves and without washing my hands between them, so maybe bottoms are ickier after all. That said, doctors (and dentists) in days gone by must have managed without gloves for all kinds of things. And then there was the requirement to taste your patient's urine for diagnosing things like diabetes... Glad I am a modern-day doctor! (Though I wonder what people 300 years from now will be horrified that we are doing now.)
Formerly self-contained, but expanding my gardening horizons beyond pots!
