Is It Wrong For a Doctor to Hook Up With a Patient?
I'd ask you to give him a call, but he'd like to keep his name off the blogs.
By the way, he's the best veterinarian I ever saw.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
As long as the animals aren't the same sex ....
ReplyDeleteWe don't need weird stuff going on.

ReplyDeleteI think it's a crime still
ReplyDeletebut it was legal in Pennsylvania from 1995 to 1999

ReplyDeleteInterspecies erotica can result in a perforated colon.
ReplyDeleteWho is the government to tell us who, what and how many to love? We're talking civil rights here.
ReplyDeleteNothing to say...
ReplyDeleteIt's not a crime. You are free to hook up with whomever you want provided they are of consenting age and you are not in Alabama.
ReplyDeleteHowever, professional ethics of attorneys make it "unethical" to hook up with a client because, I assume, your ability to give that person advice is compromised and you can very easily get into a sex-for-legal fees trade off which is essentially prostitution.
Not sure if doctors have the same ethical dilemma or not, but one can imagine that writing prescriptions for your spouse or partner, especially controlled substances, could lead to issues, like sex-for-narcotics.
ick?
ReplyDeleteRuff, ruff. Bark, Bark.
ReplyDeleteDon't get ahead of the media. They are still working on same sex marriage.
ReplyDeleteIt takes time to build a liberal civil rights political program. Need some Hollywood support followed by the legal rights organizations (ACLU is a must).
