Can you tell I had to have a physical yesterday with my OBGYN?  Seriously?  Stirrups?  Shouldn't they have been banned from the doctor's office back in 1985 when they were banned from every wardrobe in America?  I guarantee that as soon as you strip a man naked, have him lay on a cold paper-covered table with his feet up in stirrups, shine a snake light on his undercarriage and do a full oil lube, stirrups would officially be extinct.  Bless you women everywhere.  I dedicate this post to you.
