I guess if they really don't have any medical background, I can understand this one. Not like the people who are all shocked and amazed when I explain that yes, male dogs have nipples (and by the way sir, I really don't want to see you topless if you didn't understand that male mammals have nipples).
You couldn't make that up... lol.
Better than the alternative, I guess.

it's sphygmomanometer
