I like that ever since he got shot House never identifies himself when someone asks.
theres rare times prior where he lied about who he is. It started after the fat dad punched him "Dr House?" yeah whose asking? *punch* Then after being shot he always pointed to Cammeron or said something about the "skinny gay guy over there."
The "You've seen Spartacus" line was absolute brilliance.
The monitor is probably on a coma patient lol
@@quillmaurer6563I don't get the reference, care to explain?
@@commonwealpanther There was an old movie called "Spartacus," the climax scene is where the re-captured slaves are asked to turn in Spartacus to be killed in exchange for the rest being allowed to live (albeit as slaves). All the slaves, in solidarity with their leader and defiant to the end, each claimed to be Spartacus themselves, and were all crucified. Scene is worth a watch, very powerful. In this scene House is suggesting to Wilson that he should claim to be House for whatever trouble he thought he was in.
Wilson: “tricking a patient into being tested is completely unethical!”
House “please, that isn’t even the most unethical thing I’ve done in the last 24 hours”
More like 10 minutes.
😂
Pretty sure that giving a patient's file to another doctor is also unethical. Especially for a bet.
honestly though, I'd still want house as my doctor
also, that's not even on the list of the 100 most unethical things he's done in the past hour
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Totally House
A totally him thing to do
Saving a man’s life and marriage out of pure, unadulterated jerkassery, just to prove the colleague wrong. Most House thing ever.
And to prove someone was lying, another of his great loves.
@@luckymosola8196 I just love when he's right about human behavior but wrong about medical diagnosis, he's better at understanding people than medicine itself, which is why he cares for the medical mysteries more so than humans because he's already got them all figured out lol.
@@luckymosola8196cause it gets him the answer
He gets to see the rarest of the rare medical cases, the one in a few million - he doesn't get to see the one in a few million people who could go toe to toe with his behavioural analysis, mostly because people don't try and hide it nor have the stakes to care
Personally behavioural analytics are so much more fun than medical mysteries - and given cuddy and his endless plethora of problems, he doesn't have them figured out, only the little pieces which coincide with his puzzles -bravery and lies primarily - anything else, he's sort of helpless on@@BudoThePaladin
W move imo
I love how Wilson says you cant smoke in the room and then immediately sits down and smokes one with him 😂
And there is an ashtray on the table that the extinguished money is put in.
Sums up Wilson character lol
He was always gonna let House do it, and was always gonna get in trouble for letting him, so he might as well get in trouble for doing it.
There's something of an overlap between Best Friend and Enabler
Dude, that crispy Ben Franklin isn’t going to burn forever.
Perfect Sherlock and Watson moment
House telling someone he needs to get laid while reading an untranslated manga in public is like the pot calling the kettle black
He's got enough hookers to avoid that problem
House is a weeb confirmed
We've been shown multiple times during the series that House gets laid constantly. Admittedly it's with prostitutes but, well, that still counts.
Also, he lived in Japan for a long time when he was a kid, in fact that's where he decided he wanted to become a doctor (remember the janitor story?) It's not surprising that he learned to speak Japanese and started reading mangas back then.
Not Japan-- that was India, and the big deal was that the doctor everyone turned to when the chips were down was an Untouchable, normally employed only as a hospital janitor. Demonstrating to young House that even if you were the lowest socially (like him under an abusive parent), you could be the top person in the room if you were the top doctor.
@@ArynChris No it was Japan and it involved a Bukaru, which is Japan's version of an untouchable. Just look up the janitor clip yourself if you don't believe me, it's not hard to find.
I really don't understand why you'd correct someone without actually making sure that you're right first.
I like that Wilson is willingly looking into researching asexuality and keeping an open mind about it so he can understand his patients better.
Hmm. Much as I love the character, I take it as evidence of credulous, mawkish quasi-Wokeness, and therefore execrable ethical misconduct.
Nobody is truly asexual. Everybody lies.
Ooor Wilson just never confront unfathomable jerks.
You know the kind Karens, far right, far left, House. Other kinds of drug addicts.
I don't like wokeness, but you sound absolutely insufferable@@willmercury
Based on Wilson, I think I'd make a poor doctor. I would run the tests necessary to discover the source of the patients ailments in order to make an accurate diagnosis and attempt to treat them. I wouldn't try to understand the patient better, that's why we have psychiatrists. I would treat the body, the mind is someone else's problem.
When you make a bet, the house always wins 😂
Amazing.
Perfect 😂
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
My man John Keats said that.
House lost the chicken bet
yeah, that is stupid. I read in the comments about on md that became a because of House. Imagine how much damage his abusive behavior has produced. This is a series, probably created to entice narcissists. In reality, the dude who believes he is a god and mistreats patients ends up killing many. In fact, grandiose narcissism is more common in men, and statistically, women are better physicians, if you measure the live expectancy and outcomes of patients.
Wilson and House lighting a cigar with a $100 bill is actually iconic.
House stealing Wilson's food also.. 😂
I hope it was just one take, otherwise it could cost a fortune.
@@Glitcher2000 Actual US currency doesn't burn like the bill on the show is burning. So it wouldn't have cost them that much for the prop.
What's even more iconic X10 is the Freudian Slip that almost everyone missed at the end.
"Earth vs the Flying Saucers," such a good flick! A courier pilot (Richard Deer) has learned of earth's collision and ruination. Later, in a fancy club dancin', drinkin', 'n' smokin', Richard reached into the Sterno and lit his Big Dollar cigar with the flaming buck. A society gal next to him looks over, and he offers her a light until she said, "Harumph," and turned away digustedly. It's on TH-cam; "Earth vs the Flying Saucers." So, run, don't walk to get your chance for the junior door prize of the real conventions!
The thing I love most about this scene is that he had two cigars, anyone else he would have lorded his victory over smoking his cigar alone, but with Wilson it was different. Wilson was an equal and someone he truly valued in his own way.
It's Sherlock and Watson :)
love each and every friendship of these 2@@AdityaAserkar
"No, chirping birds flew out of her butt carrying a banner." I pictured that for a second and actually let out one of those loud yelp laughs
Didn't see that coming from Wilson 😂
@@vaish7504 I bet it was a surprise for his patient as well :-)
The banner was Disney blue in my brain and they were bluebirds.
Wilson always had the best comebacks to House's lines. My favourite character.
She was repressed that probably she wouldn't have minded 🤔
I was NOT prepared to see House reading a manga.
it was the japanese dub that got me into watching house. It was the episode with the nuns.
I was
Anyone know what manga it is, I need this for my house head cannon😂
@about12hobos41
It's not a real manga. It's just a prop.
It takes more work to make something like that, but then they don't have to worry about copyright and people reading too much into what they'd choose.
The more and more i watch this show, the more i am convinced that Wilson never actually had cancer. Him and House just ran off to be together.
EDIT: Im laughing at the ones getting pressed over a joke.
“Him” just ran off, huh? 🙄😒😳🤦♂️
wait ...wilson has cancer?
just screwing around. I watched the whole series. cool ending tho
@@Riazbapoo irony abounds, an oncologist got cancer
just admit that you're gay and move on.
It's worth appreciating something here. House loves mischief and risk taking and flouting ethics. For the most part, Wilson doesn't like that, right? Perfect "Odd Couple" pairing. But this bet is for $100. Wilson doesn't need that kind of money. He also doesn't need to be "right". House loves being "right" and puts a lot of value in it, but not Wilson. So why does Wilson take the bet? Because despite all his protests over House's behavior, he likes a bit of mischief himself. He just doesn't like to admit it. They are friends, after all.
Alternatively... he _is_ reading a magazine article on asexuality and he's openly skeptical of what he's reading. He's curious himself.
@@Lazman2634 Yes. That's why I said Wilson and House, not Leonard and Laurie. But thanks for checking.
@@Lazman2634 Of course the actors do what they do because it's in the script.
Are you familiar with the concept of a book club? They don't talk about ink and paper. They talk about the characters. Sometimes the author, too, but not as a mechanic pushing buttons on a typewriter.
I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. It feels like the intent is to put me down. I mean, I'm not from it, but that's what I'm reading. Is that what this is?
@@Lazman2634 Do you do this every time someone talks about characters? I'm not doing a new thing, here. I'm discussing the characters. That's the context. You're breaking the fourth wall.
@@Lazman2634 ever heard of "willing suspension of disbelief" ?
actually a great point, i have also slightly noticed this, wilson loves mischief but doesnt like to admit it unlike house
I want to get to the level of financial security where I can burn a $100 bill to light a cigar 😭
time to go to medical school
If you only burn a third of it, it can be turned in for a new one😊
THIS
It’s also a crime so please don’t post a video of it.
It's not as pleasurable as you think.
I like this girl, she chose to give up something she enjoyed for her love and he is changing his entire life despite not liking it to please her when he finds out. That is a loving couple even if not perfect they make it work for the sake of their emotions and love. bonus to it saving his life.
People are fearful of change, he's more afraid of the unknown than anything else. After his libido and E.D. are addressed, wait a couple of months for adjustment to his new reality and I assure you, he will like changing his entire life.
So i 7nterpreted it the way that he just feared to loose her because he believed she was asexual.
But there's only so much a person can give before feeling left out. She gave away a big part of her life and while it can work out for certain periods of time, it'll eventually come back to collect. The issue is, when collection time arrives, there will be little they can do to remedy the situation.
Only happens in tv serial
@xyzxyz0000 Oh come on - she had the choice between splitting up with him because he couldn't perform, or lie a bit and pretend she doesn't need it, and stay with him. She stuck with him, I admire that.
"Who of you is Doctor House?"
"You have seen Spartacus, right?"
Brilliant! Ahah
I've never seen Spartacus, but still get all the references. Because of all the references.
I have seen spartacus
@@xmlash234 No, I have seen Spartacus.
I, I have seen Spartacus!
Funniest reference is monty python's 'life of Brian'
I'm Brian !
No I'm Brian!
I'M BRIAN AND SO IS MY WIFE!
Can we all agree that delivering the line "Chirping Birds Flew Out Of Her Butt; Delivering a Banner" and NO ONE cracking is one of the reasons why we all love this show so much. I mean.. COME ON. CHIRPING FLAPPING AVIARIES!
"Yes, I got a cat. Release the kraken!"
I like the line, I actually drew a visual image of it.
The banner part of it is what is actually funny. I literally laughed out loud.
"If i have to plow that field myself, so be it"
If House faking his own death for Wilson wasn't enough to make House a real Bro.
"plow that furrough"
4:57 'Hey, look... we'll adjust.' set me off. Booming with laughter till the tears came.
She didn't look particularly worried, to say the least.
Yip, pretending to be willing to whatever it took to help keep their marriage together... The great news here is she'd been faking asexuality and had already been 'taking the hit' in that part of her life just to be with him. That kind of dedication and loyalty is rare and special.
@@tomwhone9804except the way she says "from what I remember" indicates she's been getting it, just not from him.
@@nicholasmartin787spurious logic, all it states is that she has had it before, which would have been years ago and/or from before their relationship. It's not defined for a bit of comedy.
Her 180 turn with the doctor standing there struck me as a bit cheesy. And IRL, with his libido returned, there's a chance that he could be oriented differently, or maybe have kinks she can't deal with.
“Plays to my strengths anyway”
- House sums up himself PERFECTLY
and he didn't talk to the patient, he cleverly went for the husband to bypass the bet which is really his strength.
The great thing about House's character, was exactly how self aware he was when it came to his occupation. He got into diagnostics, specifically to avoid talking to patients. But that's terrible drama for a show, so his terrible bedside manner is why it works.
Lighting a cigar from a burning $100 bill is the most baller thing I've ever seen
I know they're doctors but I can't believe they actually did it.
It's sick, I'm the most selfish person in the world and I'd give it to a homeless before I'd burn it.
@@kaleknelson8429 obviously it's fake it's a TV show, it's just cool to watch
@@Mprator wow good for you
@@Fisheee123 Huh, what about my comment implied I didn't know that?
yeah this episode did not exactly do wonders for the asexual community
Especially making asexuals seem like aliens
I can imagine 😬 I was hoping it would end with House and Wilson learning a lesson but it sounds like it probably started some false rumors
Yeah. It almost made it seem like asexual people actually exist. What nonsense.
@@periwinkuruThey learned the truth. Human beings are not asexual.
@@TheTimologist oh, thanks for enlightining me. It must mean I'm not a human being! Good to know.
The girl was so ready to go "Oh no! Anyway..."
That simultaneous kick back on Wilson’s couch is exactly why this relationship is so special. My favorite TV friendship of all time 👌
I've been diagnosed with this EXACT disease the past few months. I stumbled on this clip by complete randomness today, bless the algorithm :D
The depiction of the science behind macroprolactinoma is absolutely on point, even if not all symptoms and outcome were exactly the same for me. This goes to show how accurate was House and how good the show's advisors were for script consistency.
That is why we medical students watch the show lol. It’s 99% acurate medically however house could never be the way he is n still be employed in a hospital
@@rd9526I think doctor house could still be working in the hospital in the prison where he would inevitably be incarcerated for multiple felonies
I hope you are doing well and will recover soon❤
i doubt it was "random" since you probably googled stuff. wish you good recovery.
@@eVuLeX I'm a programmer, and I know how the algorithms work. I already skimmed through house clips on TH-cam over past years (and I've watched the entire series a good 3 times now), but maybe some weeks before my diagnose this year I may have stepped it up during medical exams. Nonetheless, I never googled for low libido or erectile disfunction which is the topic of this clip, which I did NOT have ironically. I did note a medium jump in libido (which I Google slightly, but I always had OK libido) but most importantly I noticed sudden weight loss, which I did googled ad nauseum yet is notably not a topic in this clip as it's actually one of the things that has been found more recently to correlate with prolactinoma - turns out if your body thinks you need to lactate (due to high prolactin), you stop metabolizing the nutrients that mother's milk is supposed to have. So yeah, I had been downing hundreds of eurobucks' worth of whey protein the past 2 years and I still felt hungry at 1am, until I started on Cabergoline. -6kg in a month is no joke.
"No, chirping birds flew out of her butt carrying a banner." I just fucking died.
"You can't smoke in here!" THEN HE LIGHTS HIMSELF A CIGAR LMAO I LOVE THIS SHOW
Actually, he said 'we' cant smoke in here. He knew he wanted to be in on the action
Yawn we got the comment police@@nancyokang7446
House made a point he couldn't argue with, so he gave in lol
It's an imperfect world , is the most hilarious yet completly valid reasoning or justification
I love this couple. She was willing to give up something she found "fun" to be with him and would make him comfortable. And he chose to take on a confusing path via surgery because it would make her happy.
A little different and even better. She fakes it to make him comfortable.
He get's told he has cancer and that he'll be wanting to poontang after getting rid of it and he's willing to keep it to not make her uncomfortable.
Wishing that couple a second honeymoon and a dozen complaints from all the next door and next floor neighbours in their Hotel.
Him lighting up a cigar with the bet money is the most house thing ever
You know how every season the colors gets more muted? Is that a clever way of showing House's decline to depression?
Fucking WILD watching this because I have a macroprolactinoma - that started growing in my teens - that completely killed my libido
Can we just take a moment to appreciate Hugh's American accent?
his best is faking a british accent imo
@@hellboy19991was gonna mention it 😂

House never ceases to amaze. Greatest ever medical show
House has his moments but this was definitely not one where he shined :/
@@RheaRoyHunter He always shines
@@truereaper4572the show insulted and invalidated an already suppressed minority with this one. Imagine if he felt the need to prove a patient was lying only because he believed homosexuality wasn't real, or that introverts weren't real, and then the episode validated that behavior
they invalidate bisexuality in the first season, welcome to House MD @@annataymond9529
@@annataymond9529 finally, someone who actually sees it for what it is!
The episode giving asexual folk representation ends with one being a medical condition and the other person faking it. 💀
Some people mistakenly believing they are asexual because of a medical issue doesn't negate people who are actually ace. Both can exist, and there shouldn't be stigmas for either.
Its all cptsd?
Always has been.
Because this is reality. This is what asexual people are. This is what people with 'gender identities' are. You think you are vanilla and you find something that explains your behaviour, so you latch onto that identity. You are a human, and you are normal if you choose to be.
@@angeleyesgreen1586it'd be different if 1. this show depicted real asexuals 2. house didnt only think they were faking based on the information that they happen to be ace.
@angeleyesgreen1586 /shrug. Okie dokie
Oh... just an afterthought... there's no chance you or someone you know is asexual due to an unrealized medical or psychological matter, is there?
I feel like like Hugh Laurie’s eventually going to play the Joker one day. Burns money with no hesitation, a nihilistic worldview, doubts people moral code, and can be really terrifying if he so chooses.
Don’t think he will do those childish superhero movies
He IS an actor -playing a character! He'd probably do a remake of Tootsie if it so appealed, and paid appropriately! The characters he plays - and their inherent qualities (having nihilistic worldviews, doubting people's moral codes, and being really terrifying if he so chooses) doesn't mean that's who he actually is...... you know that, right? 🤷♀
Wow an episode I don’t think I’ve seen! I can never thank this uploaded enough. 👏👏
Judging by the ending, it's probably one from the final eighth season!
I loved House MD overall but this was a garbage episode.

This scene.with the relaxing cigars... Just reminds so much of Bill Shatner and James Spader on the balcony in Boston Legal
Definition of great friendship
This is a great episode, which I found very uplifting. Thanks for posting this clip.
I had to pause it at that chirping birds line. 🤣🤣🤣
I don't know If I wish mora a friend like Wilson or a friend like House
Wilson. He'll be honest with you, but he'll show tact.
Good there's no smoke alarm in Wilson's office.
Sweet clip
5:09 The look on his face 🤣
I am surprised House didn't make a phallic, Freudian joke about the cigars, given the subject matter of the episode's case.
Just awesome writing at times. Hugh Laurie is quite the talent..Blackadder comes to mind for the curious
I'm ace, I read that both ways
“You’ve seen Spartacus, right?”
-I applauded
Great Episode Clip.
This show was really something else.
House doesn't really care about anyone but himself, he needs to win, he needs to solve the puzzle and he always needs to be right. If the patient gets cured it's just a side effect of his desire to always be right. If you ever see an episode where his patient dies he's not upset that they died, he's upset that he missed the diagnosis and he'll do an autopsy to find the answer of what he missed.
But he is a brilliant diagnostician. So perhaps there is a place in society for sociopaths.
I think he does care, in his own weird way.
@@codenamejinzahe definitely does! Him acting like he doesn’t care about people is his defense mechanics for getting to attached to them. But he will always allow himself to do charming acts for other people, like buying 2 cigars one for him one for Wilson. If he had cared about only himself, he would’ve done it alone.
Furthermore, I don’t even think he likes himself. I think he hates what he’s become. But he’s scared to change as he thinks how he is saves lives
That's not true. There have been quite a few times he has shown empathy and that he cares about his patients.
I've seen every episode yet have zero memory of this
"You've seen Spartacus, right?" 🤣
Didn't Wilson technically win the bet though? I mean, there was no medical reason for HER asexuality, it was HIS that was medically induced. Her medical situation was perfectly fine!
Technically speaking, there was effectively a medical reason explaining her asexualty, the medical reason was just not in her body. The bet was not "she has a medical issue", but more like "there is a mecial issue involved in there"
@@sunsigne4081 I think if the semantics of the bet has to be argued to determine who won it, best course of action would just be to null it! :p
@@ChevaliersEmeraude this reasoning is a slippery slope ... Everytime you lose a bet you could argue the semantic than claim the best solution is to null it. However, House DID tricked Wilson on that one, but Wilson should have seen that coming ... Don't do bet with House whatsoever XD
@@sunsigne4081 On the slippery-slope thing: Not really. It's not all the time that semantics can be argued. But in this case it can.
No, because she was not asexual, just celibate.
Two things: first, that wife would cure me of any thoughts of asexuality if that ever happened, and b) I wish House was my doctor. I've had lots of doctors, and none of them ever cared enough to investigate what is wrong with me anywhere near as much as House does.
The chirping birds part blew me to shreds the first time I heard it xD
House is my favourite Shonen Anime.

Utterly unrealistic
@@ethosterros9430you don't say... On HOUSE??? you might be in to something.

This Bromance was as good as it gets. 😎
The look at 0:34 is House’s “This sounds like bullshit and I will spend the remainder of my foreseeable future disproving this,” look.
"You've seen Spartacus, right?"😂
that's so funny. thanks for the laugh
“I’m not one of them!” is a WILD quote
I know for a fact that my asexuality is caused by an untreatable medical condition. (Edit: very, _very_ rare birth defects.) I was just glad to finally find other people who felt the same way. When you have zero interest in copulation, a world where it’s a driving factor for 99% of people is _very_ strange (also edit:, so it was a big relief to learn I wasn’t the only person like this).
What's the condition?
@@steven21736commenting because now I’m curious too (and I’ll get notified of replies)
Honestly, medical condition or not, asexuality is not a problem if it doesn't make you or an eventual partner miserable. I suggest you "A History of Celibacy", from historian Elizabeth Abbott. Chaste marriages are also part of that book.

I always liked how wilson grew from being a teenage vampire and improved his life to being a saver of life not a taker.
This is an entire episode showing the most salient character dynamics in seven and a half minutes. Brilliant.
Did anyone even bother to notice the MASSIVE Freudian Slip that was IN YOUR FACE at the end?? Nope. They just thought that it was iconic that a couple of cigars were lit with a C note...

"You've seen Spartacus, right?" Is a great line lol
House reading a manga that looks like it was drawn by a 10 year old
(Not so) Fun Fact: this was the first representation of asexual people in TV. And it was clearly not very good.
In fact, Huge was the first one in US TV in 2010, with Poppy, a cheerful character who says she doesn't feel romantic attraction (but is okay with that). Outside of USA, you can even go back to 2007 with Gerald Tippet on Shortland Street (NZ soap opera)
omg the show is not being used to preach to the public, what a calamity.
In a show full of medical inaccuracies, this is like the one thing they got right.
Charlotte from pride and prejudice was on tv in lik the 90s probably before
@@Me-xo5tw Indeed, and Sherlock Holmes too. It's just the label was unknown and at this time, it could be "justified" by the audience with Charlotte only interested in wealth and Holmes being "weird" in only caring about the intellect. But in today's standards, they are clearly ace (even if we can wonder about how far Holmes went with Milverton's housemaid).
"youve seen Spartacus right" 🤣🤣
I just love their friendship. I love how Wilson puts up with House. We should be so lucky to have that kind of friendship.
Guess I've had a brain tumor for 33 years
I don't quite like how this might convince some idiots that asexuality isn't a thing, when that isn't the point at all. Maybe I'm just having too little faith in humanity. Time to sort by newest...
House reading manga in the first 10 seconds is an AMAZING detail
"We can't smoke in here. " Proceeds to sit next to him and light up.
House reading manga? 🤨
Never noticed that before
Good spot! House lived in Japan, so maybe not so surprising?
Hes reading it backwards though
Reading might be too strong of a word
@@mithril_0047 around thirty seconds in you can see his eyes scan from right to left. Laurie might know how to read manga for real
Poor wilson. Smoking that cigar gave him cancer
This show still hasn't been topped
I love that Wilson didn't even flinch at House lighting the hundred dollar bill on fire. 😂
That's friendship right there.
I'm asexual, and when I brought that up to my doctor he asked whether that bothered me, and when I told him it didn't he said "Well some people just are like that, and as far as I know there's nothing wrong with you so that shouldn't be an issue.", so it's very funny to watch when acephobic people with absolutely no medical knowledge just grasp at straws and try to desperately armchair diagnose me with something. Like I'm sorry that the fact that your experiences of sexual attraction aren't quintessential to the human experience upsets you, but that's your problem not mine lol.
Bro it’s not normal. Doesn’t devalue you or anything but it’s still not normal. Every living thing with sexual practices like us wants to reproduce. It is wired that way into functional, healthy organisms.
There’s something wrong with you.
@@cargopilotguy305 Here they come, diagnose me doctor! Do it! Tell me all about how you know a stranger over the internet better than a medical professional who has known me for about 16 years of my life. I'm so ready for it.
@@cargopilotguy305 There is nothing wrong with them. Who knows, perhaps you are the one who is in the wrong right now!
@@TheVibes101 Even if we don't know you well enough to properly tell what caused this, you know deep down exactly why you are the way you are. You can't hide it forever. I hope you get the help you need to properly process this.
How much you wanna bet one of them took the 3/4 of the burnt 100 to the bank to get a new one?
4:50 - She is going (inside) "Yes!", and doing backflips.
This is the most House and Wilson clip ever.
And then Wilson got cancer completely out of nowhere.
Using men as an example, here's how I'd breakdown asexuality as it pertains to sexual orientation*:
1. Heterosexual men are asexual towards men
2. Homosexual men are asexual towards women
3. Asexual men are asexual towards both men and women
In other words, it has nothing to do with libido, so based on the facts as presented in the clip it's entirely possible that the patient will still identify as asexual after treatment.
There is also the question of whether this episode pushes back on the idea that asexuality can exist in otherwise healthy individuals. I think it does push back, to a degree, which I'd support with the following:
1. House is immediately skeptical that Wilson's patient is asexual, despite being given no other information about her. "I have a patient who's asexual" "Is she a giant pool of algae?" You could argue that he's just joking around at this point, but given how the rest of the scene plays out, it's pretty clear he's skeptical of asexuality in general.
2. After being told that she's healthy and happily married to a man who's also asexual (i.e. the only other information he's been given), he doubles down and makes the bet. I think this weakens the claim that this story was "only about this specific couple" when House has so little to go on other than the asexual label and how much weight his opinions can carry.
3. House was right. He had information you could apply to almost any asexual person, said "I don't buy it", bet $100 on it and was proven right (at least, as presented by the show).
I don't think that this proves the writers were trying to invalidate or undermine asexual people, necessarily, but I also don't think that's an unfair interpretation to have. I'd be interested to know what the writers' thoughts are on this now.
*This is an oversimplification of course, and doesn't address asexuality as a spectrum or the forms that exist separate from orientation.
You aren't a professional. You don't even know if you're right or not.
From my shallow experience as a layman and observer only, if someone says he/she is asexual, there's nearly always some big hit earlier in life. May diddled as a kid, a big accident, other forms of trauma. Or like the smoking blonde in the clip, being railed through so much, she can open her own sausage factory.
A brain chemical imbalance, be it tumor or otherwise. A very religious upbringing.
The schmecksdrive is the strongest we have for a reason. Lesser in women to begin with and goes much further down with age, but for men... it dominates your thinking in your early years after hitting puberty. And though, THANKFULLY, it goes down a bit with age as well, it is still very strong. Just no longer overwhelming.
Although... being confronted with a ravenous beauty begging for it, even an oldtimer's pole may be up for the challenge.
@@HerrHoppenstedt "Lesser in women to begin with"
TRAD CON?🤣
@@johnthehumanist2333 The male sexdrive is 3 times stronger than the female one.
Cope and seethe
"we've really gotta get you laid" house reading a manga
"most happiness is."
Conspiracy theory: this was the cigar smoke that gave Wilson the cancer that killed him after the Series Finale.
