I don’t personally care if you use hookup apps
I ashley madison reddit just think they are trashy and dangerous and not a good way to find a partner. I realize some educated people actively pursue causal sex too, but let’s not pretend that we don’t understand or need to mind the emotional and physical health risks of having sex with 30 different people a year, and ignore that this is really unusual behavior that most people don’t do.
We do a really shi-y job some times as practitioners when it comes to discouraging high risk sexual behavior. Sure go nuts and do whatever you want, just use a condom and come in for regular STI screens. that’s not really honest. Maybe we should say, you know sleeping with a new person every week isn’t really healthy.

This feels more like an issue you have with me being on grindr than an actual issue of kink shaming, but I’ll respond nonetheless.
People can have whatever kinks they want, I don’t care. When someone immediately messages pictures of their genitals and asks me to f*ck them in my white coat or do a physical exam on them, I reserve the right to make a joke about their fetishes lol. If those people said hello or had an actual conversation before bringing up their fetishes/sending nude pictures, it wouldn’t be so weird and maybe they’d actually get somewhere.

Pretty stupid for highly educated medical professionals to be using hookup apps in the first place. You are purposely seeking an encounter with people who have a long history of causual sex encounters with strangers.
Also seems to run a higher risk of hooking up with a psycho. Heard too many stories about hookup apps resulting in psycho stalkers.
As a med student you’re a quality individual. Do yourself a favor and find a high quality partner who doesn’t sleep around, vet him/her through traditional dating, and get STI tested before you have sex. Despite what you see on tv and social media, it’s what most of us do.
