STD poll - Would you rather...

[DWB]

If you get a cold or the flu, you are on your ass for days, sometimes up to a week. You can't do much of anything, you miss work and often the people around you get ill as well. Nasty stuff we can all agree.

Yet if you get say Gonorrhea or Chlamydia, both come with aweful social stigmats, your piss may burn and you may have a little puss. You take a pill or get a shot and it all quickly goes away. You do not miss work, you don't feel like ass and your kids don't get it (at least I hope not).

So which would you rather get? The Flu and be put down on your ass, or Gonorrhea and take a pill and continue as is without missing a beat.

I choose drippy dick.

[JamesK]

I'd rather have the flu, more familiar with that.

[_Richard_]

i'm going to go with the flu on this one..

[96ukssob]

hard question to answer. i had a friend in college with the Clap and took weeks to go away.

it all comes down to what im doing. if im just sitting in my house working then probably the std. if im going to some even that i dont want to attend, then hands down the flu! haha

Odd. Maybe he had a tolerance to the medicine. That happens.

[Evil E]

I chose Flu. With the Clap you'd have to go to the doc for testing, then get a prescription, then buy your OTC medication, then you can start the recovery process.

With Flu it just goes away by itself. So in practice it might take longer to get rid of the Clap.
And I also never had it so I don't know how it feels, so I'd rather go for the Flu since I know how it is.

[The Ghost]

I went with the flu ... unless it's a super mild case of the drip and caught immediately.

[Scott McD]

What a choice.

[Veronica]

As much as the flu totally sucks, I am terrified of STDs, to the point where I turn down a lot of great opportunities. I've never had one, and I am completely paranoid about them. That's one thing I like about wearing latex dresses to clothing-optional parties... it doesn't matter so much if someone bumps into me - I am wearing a giant condom - ha!

I love taking risks, but that is one thing I just don't want to risk. Maybe I just need to get one so I can go through the process and find out it's not all that bad. Any volunteers?

[Jens Van Assterdam]

Iam in for the cock stuff.

[MrKinkade]

you can get rid of ghonno easier then the flu on alot of cases... I ve caught it before I've been out for 3-7 days I've caught the flu and was in the hospital for a week on IV's untill the day Im in the hospital for a week on IV's from the drip

I'm sure I can pick one up within the next few hours.

Where you live?

[jalami]

I pick the one that goes away by itself and doesn't hurt my dick. Duh.

[GrouchyAdmin]

If I'm gonna be fucked up, I might as well get to fuck for it.

[CaptainHowdy]

Anon poll?... damm, too late.

You forgot to mention how they test you for gon or chlamydia... I've had the test and was just a urinary tract infection. Swab stuck in your peehole first, then a metal probe with barbed edges. Its the male version of a pap smear. Never again.

[donkevlar]

And raw to boot!

[Reak AGV]

Gonorrhea - Burns when you pee for 2 days and it's over with 1 pill. Have had it a few times now, Zithromax® works it wonders well!

Seems like by this thread you or you know someone that has gonorrhea and your trying to make yourself or them feel better about it to not worry.

hmmmmm.

[Spunky]

I think I'd rather get the flu

[Intrinsic]

hard fucking question!! the flu sucks!
im gonna have to go with dripdick ugh

[Kudles]

The flu for sure

[latinasojourn]

the problem with this is no one is thinking beyond themselves.

men with the clap usually have symptoms after a few days, but before they do they can still infect others, so they run around and bang beaver.

problem is, MANY girls don't have any symptoms so they infect everyone who fucks them and they don't even know it.

so the 18 year old party girl finally grows up and gets married when she's 23 and wants to start a family, but can't have children. infertile. forever.

and the reason is because she fucked around with guys who just think about themselves.

so it ain't the same as the flu. and there's no way to sugarcoat it.

[scubadiver626]

Ghonnorea for sure at least you got to tap some strange ass to earn your condition...better than touching a door knob and then eating lunch...

[ztik]

I would take the STD its just a bacterial infection. Just like the flu, but it can be cured within a few days. The flu you can be sick as a dog for a week.

Glad someone finally brought this up -- it's totally different from a woman's perspective so as long as it wasn't a killer flu / just a week, then I'd take the flu.

Also from a chick's perspective: with the flu you get to lose weight, too, so that's an added bonus if you're . . . plump and want to be less plump.

Anyway, I like having an excuse that I can openly crow about to get out of doing stuff/stay at home in bed watching television. Of course, I can do that now if I want to, but it seems so much more justifiable with an illness.

Without reading any replies in this thread, heres mine:

I'd rather have the flu, why? because its easier walking into a doctor and saying "I have the flu" rather then "I have gonorrhea", just imagine the things that goes through everyones head who hears you say that and how much they look down at you... no thanks.

For one, when you have the flu you dont really have to go to the doctor. Besides what ever you tell the doctor stays between you & him in 99.9% of the cases. And with the clap you dont need to see any doctor just buy zithromax and it be gone within 1-2 days

obviously they do tests, and not just the doctor knows, and thats what i don't feel comfortable with.

Actually they dont need to do any tests for it (the doctor will know the symtons and you dont even have to unzip your pants), besides you can get zithromax over the counter

[digifan]

Hell, I don't want any of the above. The bird flu can be an epidemic anytime and stds can be resistent to medication.

[Cash]

the flu, of course

They don't do that anymore..

It's tested by urine now.

But if you are desperate and want to have sex 1 week after taking the meds they will do the swab to test for living bacteria in the urethra..

Because the test is soo sensitive that even dead bacteria can show up as a positive.

[Sarah_Jayne]

I would try to avoid either but if I had one I would also go with the devil I know and take the flu.

With the Flu you can get everyone around you sick.

With an STD, it is EVERYONES personal responsibility to get check ups if they are sexually active.

What you just said translated is, a girl who is irresponsible and does not do her 6 months PAP smear, as all women are supposed to do, can get fucked up later in life.

Well of course she can and it's her own fault. If I can make it to get a check up ever few months, so can she or anyone else. I can't feel sorry for them.

[BusterBunny]

i picked gonorrhea but i would like the burning to last as long as the flu

i take it you've had gonorrhea?

[Rhesus]

- Reak: one can only buy azithromycin over the counter in countries with poorly regulated antimicrobial and anti-resistance policies. That may indeed include Thailand.

- Choosing to (temporarily) destroy or disturb one's intestinal microbial flora with antibiotics when you can choose for a simple viral infection stems from ignorance.

- The question is silly, there's no such choice. Thread starter is trying to prove something to himself or to others.

Silly, not ever to take any responsibility

[Rhesus]

DWB, you think doctors (apart perhaps from those working in private clinics) are happy to do check-ups for human dirt holes like you every few months? I know I wouldn't be.

They still do that, they stick a stick in your peehole.

It's their job. Do you think mechanics get pissed off that people's cars keep breaking down?

[commonsense]

If you've had the drip more than a couple of times you tend to know right away if you have it, and can treat it with a dose Zithro immediately. You won't even have the fancy yellow Pollock painting in your underwear. In those cases it's much better than having the flu. But this is only convenient if you live in a place that sells it over the counter. In the US catching the drip is fucking expensive and embarrassing.


Few here even have sex, so the idea of getting the drip is incredibly scary and foreign. The first time you catch it it is scary. After the 5th time it's no big deal.

[jscott]

hahahaha, Rhesus is still around, I wouldve thought he had killed himself by now :

I'm a doctor myself. Most western countries have a not-for-profit healthcare system. There's plenty of more interesting and more attention-worthy stuff to do than to check up people every few months who take no responsibility for (the effects of) their lifestyle.

If you will, compare it to a car mechanic who has to repair the rear bumper of a car every month because the owner of the car refuses to install rear view mirrors, while there's a waiting list for other customers.

[commonsense]

To add you generally have the drip much worse in the states, since many people procrastinate about treatment (sexual repression, insecurities, uneducated), and then have to wait to see a doctor. Alot more costly and time consuming than those "crappy 3rd world countries" where Zithromax is sold over the counter and you can treat yourself.

I was wondering when you were going to come in here. I've missed you and your brave keyboard warrior ways.

Why would a doctor care if I'm always clean? Even if I wasn't why would they care? They are doctors.

You're too funny. Kisses.
