Healthy adults should get a checkup every two years. The exception is that once a person reaches 50 years of age, they should get a checkup every year, even if healthy. People taking medications or with health conditions should get them as often as recommended by their physician.

If you are asking why straight men often talk about being attracted to lesbians, this is because men are very motivated by their physical attraction to the two women. Even though men know that logically, two lesbians are not going to return their interest or even act in a sexual way toward one another in front of them, it does not stop them from fantasizing about it.
